    E Class Coupe 350CDi BlueEfficiency

    Sorry if this is a little late but thought I would try and add my perspective as an owner. I have had mine since new at September 2011 and overall been very pleased with it. I am not sure which version of the engine will be in a '59 plate as it was upgraded at some point but for me the...

    Not as different as I was expecting

    Agreed, although I must say that I am definately warming to the CLS.....

    Not as different as I was expecting

    I think it is very odd, I asked my dealer at the time and they seemed to have no idea why they don't put it in the c-class coupe. I can only assume it is perhaps a price thing. When I looked at it you had to add a couple of things that were standard on the E-Class to the C-Class (heated seats...

    Not as different as I was expecting

    I tried both the C-Class & E-Class coupe's before buying the E-Class and I agree there isn't that much in it. In fact in some place (climate control design) I think the C-Class is nicer although I do prefer the look of the central instrument cluster on the E-Class. The main thing that swung...

    Could be tempted back - E220CDI BE Sport Ed 125 Coupe

    I've got the E350CDI Sport Coupe and think it is a great car. Coming from an Audi A5 I would say the ride is fine, much better than Audi/BMW, mine is on 18" wheels so not sure how much impact the optional 19" would have. Also the sports seats are great and the ability to adjust the bolsters...

    Bye Bye CLK hello Audi

    I had one of these before the E-Class Coupe and they are a good car. You have definately gone for the right engine, I had the 2ltr Petrol Turbo and the fuel economy was dismal and far worse than I expected (and I never expected to get near the manufacturer figures). The ride was pretty harsh...

    New E250 Coupe On Its Way

    Based on my experience they give you an overview of the controls of the car and how it all works. To be honest after the first 10 minutes it all started to wash over me especially the Comand stuff. The easiest way to learn everything is just to play with it and use it so sure that you will get a...

    When is a new car not a new car?

    Mine was built in September and at the time they had just added the colour display in the speedometer and also the new wheel.I would suggest that if you car has these then you can confirm it is 'new'. Of course if not it then all comes down to what you define as 'new' and when it was built.

    New Car, New Member

    I picked up an E350CDI Sport at the beginning of September and been really pleased with it. Palladium Silver was actually my favourite colour but didn't want a black or red interior so in the end went with Obsidian Black with the Natural Beige. However, I don't think you will be disappointed...

    New C250 - running temp

    My 350CDI runs at exactly the same temperature so I assume absolutely normal. I must admit other cars I have had run with the temperature gauge in the middle once warmed up whereas this runs a little above halfway. However, no issues with overheating so just one of those little oddities.

    New car order (Command online) and dealer issues

    I would agree with all the above and that you should get this sorted out plus a goodwill gesture. If this dealership can't deliver then you'd think there would be plenty who would be glad of the order. When I got my E-Coupe in early September the COMAND with the single disc CD player was...

    E350CDI Fuel Economy

    Thanks for the tips re fuelly, will definately check that one out. Even if the computer is 15% optimistic still impressed, particularly coming from an Audi A5 2.0T petrol car that struggled to do 30mpg.......will be interesting to see how it changes as the engine loosens up

    E350CDI Fuel Economy

    Took the car on it's first long trip yesterday from Wigan - Newbury and back again (around 184 miles each way). It is a E Class Coupe 350CDI and is just a few weeks old with about 600 miles on the clock. Route back covered the following: A34 - Mostly 70-80 Leptons apart from the odd bit of...

    E350 cdi

    Same here, speed limit assist came as standard and never specced it so this should be on your car. IMO the new steering wheel and colour graphics make a massive difference also. Thanks for the tip re IPhone, guess will need to wait until the update comes out.

    E350 cdi

    Noodler, Glad you are enjoying the car, the dynamic handling is definately well worth it:)... In terms of your questions not sure I can help with the first two as mine is the same. However, in terms of the outside temperature this does show in one of the modes of the trip computer, I think...

    Cclass Advanced Agility Package- the low down.

    I've got the system on the e-class coupe. Was a little sceptical at first but now I have experienced it I would say well worth the money. I would echo the comments above re the various settings but the difference it makes to the car is subtle but significant. I would definately tick the box...

    E350 cdi

    Certainly on mine, it shows the speed limit in the main display on the speedometer for a short while after you have passed a sign. This is irrespective of whether you are using the navigation. It shows permanently on the map even if you are not using the directions but you have to have this...

    E350 cdi

    The speed limit assist is really good actually, as you pass the sign the limit pops up in the middle of the speedo and then it disappears and shows in the sat nav screen. It seems pretty good at recognising the signs and only misses them if they are obscured. Useful if you are in an unfamiliar...

    E350 cdi

    I got mine last Saturday. First impressions are very good, it came with the new steering wheel and colour graphics in the speedo which IMO both make a massive difference. In addition it also recognises the various speed limit signs and puts them on the sat nav which I thought was an option...
