1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Avantgarde review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clonking noise from suspension over speed ramps. Dealer failed to spot the noise (don't they always?)
General comments?
Feels like it will last forever. Avantgarde suspension makes for a slightly hard ride. Performance still surprising after 6 months. For the money the equipment is rather mean and the aircon is feeble. A great car though - hard to believe that the new 320CDI is any better!
