    E Class 320 CDi Estate - swap p/ex for 190E

    Gentlemen, We're moving down to Brighton soon and this good old girl will simply be too big to haul around the City streets, so a change is imminent. Thought I'd try a swap or p/ex with someone on here to avoid the Ebay and Autotrader Mike Brewers and many wasted weekends. It's a lovely...

    2004 E320 CDI Elegance Tip Auto 7-seater Estate - silver

    Testing the water with selling the car as we are possibly moving to a place where it won't fit. I know how long it takes to sell a car so it might all work out fine. She's our family car and recent work includes a full service and SBC pump which was horrendously expensive. She has 152,000...

    Anyone gone from E-Class Estate to C-Class Estate?

    It's big. Toying with the idea of down-sizing my W211 E Class 320 cdi Estate to the equivalent age smaller petrol C-Class Estate. As it's very hard to get dealers to allow test drives unless you guarantee to buy their car, I'm asking on here for your valued opinions if any of you have made...

    Soundproofing diesel cars - anyone done it?

    Has anyone successfully cut down the noise of a diesel car with soundproofing? I have a W211 E Class estate and the noise from the diesel engine is louder than I would like. Sounds like I'm driving a Taxi. There is standard soundproofing under the bonnet but it's still pretty loud in the...

    W211 E320cdi springs/shocks shot or blame the bad roads?

    Gentlemen, Took my E Class Estate four-up on a run yesterday and couldn't help but thinking that the ride had got firmer since I bought it 3 years ago. 149,000 miles and by the look of the full MB history it's never had any suspension needed. Tyres are all good and balanced. Should I...

    W211 E320cdi to C32 or E55 Estate. Anyone done it?

    Currently have a 2004 W211 E320 cdi Estate with a chip but have been reading some wonderful road tests of C32 and E55 Estates from the same era which describe the power as completely mental. Has anyone moved from an E320cdi to one of these, and are they as mind-blowing as the journalists lead...

    SLK buyer - any help/tips appreciated

    Dear all, I'm hoping to buy an SLK350 2004 onwards for about £8000. Fair price? Lots of options to choose from and don't want to buy the wrong one. Coming from an MX5 2.0 which I find a bit underpowered and bumpy. Are they ok for rust from that year? I've heard the rear arches were a problem...
