1994 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E280 2.8 24 valve petrol

Summary:

Big car, small price!!

Faults:

Bloody electric aerial, why do they put these stupid unreliable gimmicks on quality cars???

Shock absorbers are getting a bit floaty after 7 years and 130,000 miles.

General Comments:

It's just heaven, fast, reliable, looks gorgeous in metallic grey.

A real hotrod if you are in the mood.

Worried that the late model E-Class won't live up to this one's standards.

Only cost £7,000 and feels like it will last forever.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Well we've got a W210 model E class now and I have to say that it is another excellent car. Maybe not quite as solid as this W124.
