1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E320 review from UK and Ireland
"Fast, practical, comfortable load carrier and towcar"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not a thing so far, apart from a broken surround on one of the rear seatbelt buckles.
General comments?
A real joy to drive, and a significant improvement on the old W124 model in this respect.
There are disquieting reports of serious rust problems appearing on various MB owners' web forums, but my car seems mercifully free of this apart from some very minor signs of corrosion underneath the paint around the rear door release handle.
