1995 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe 3.2 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
This car could eat continents.
Faults:
The screen-washer jets were blocked with polish. No big deal.
General Comments:
These cars, with classic late 80s styling, are looking better each year. Pundits reckon this was probably the last of the heavily over-engineered Mercs, and the rare hardtop coupe is perhaps the pick of the bunch. There is a feeling of absolute solidity about this car that makes you feel utterly serene as you waft along in near-silence, knowing all the time that if you need to floor the pedal, the nose will lift slightly and the horizon will be reeled in effortlessly.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Bought my E300 Diesel with 40K miles on the odometer. Have put on 100K miles since.
Windshield has been replaced. Have never had a wiper blade that worked well since.
Had to replace glow plugs around 120K miles. Had to send to Germany to get them- Expensive!
Expensive to maintain, but at 30 m.p.g. it's worth it.
I love this car! I plan to drive it till it dies. It handles beautifully, feels safe and has never let me down!
