"A rare and good looking Mercedes Benz"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Slight oil leak from engine.

Brake light in rear spoiler needs replacing.

General comments?

This car is a rare sight in the UK as it was only produced in limited numbers.

The car is completely original and the blue black metallic paint is complimented by light grey leather upholstery.

Performance is exhilarating from the 272bhp engine and the AMG suspension is firmer than a standard E320 set up.

To date I am getting 21 miles per gallon of petrol which I think is reasonable for a one and a half tonne car that has a top speed of over 150 miles per hour.

I am a Bulgarian. I owned a Mercedes 200D inherited from my dad. What can I say? It is a great car. Today I drive a far more speedy car, but that one was a luxury to ride in. Very smooth and secure ride. The problems - there were few - nozzles difficult to get warm in winter. But I you ask me today I would not ever buy a luxury car again. The market today is brimming with economical comfortable cars and the brands matter no more. Generally this will be my point of view. Cheers!

I just want to continue my comments from yesterday. Mercedes, BMW and other cars flooded the Bulgarian auto-market. But buying a second-hand car of this class may lead too many problems. First your wallet should be well stocked if you really are a vintage car lover. Once I bought a second hand BMW. I simply had to throw it away. The parts needed to make it a nice car would easily buy me some good and reliable car. To cut the long story short, my opinion is that rich people very keen on owning certain brands can really get fun of acquiring these heavy and once luxurious older modeles.
