Re: Which one is better: the E320 Estate S211 or the S210?

Given my intended mileage on the continent, 50+mpg is powerful. I'm not willing to part with the om642's strong, reliable acceleration in my e350, no matter how much it annoys me in the boat-like s211.

Which one is better: the E320 Estate S211 or the S210?

Im on the hunt for an E320 cdi S211, but I'm on the fence about making the purchase because I had a previous experience with an S210 E320 on a '03 plate, which I adored for all her character and personality until I had to let it go due to underside rust. There aren't many in good condition that are ...

Re: Avoid dribbling.

,who frequently asserts that "a car is a car," is presently experiencing a humorous incident. Amidst my laboured breaths, I discerned "300SL W198 Roadster in white, but retain the seats."

Re: Intermittent problems in ESP and Collision Prevention Assist for W205

An ineffective batter may be accountable for erratic malfunctions, such as those you delineate.

Re: 2014 C218 CLS250 with AMG badge?

Although it did not originally leave the factory adorned with an AMG insignia on the boot lid, now that it is there, unless it is misaligned or bothersome, it is best to leave it undisturbed. It will include AMG emblems on the wheels, floor mats, and likely in further locations, so an extra one woul...
