It has a light coating on both the front and rear providing a light chameleon finish however I’m wanting a bit more on the front screen as since tinting the rear glass, the tint has emphasised the factory coating - it has more of the purple popping through now. Looks really good in person.Aren

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but an E class saloon is just a very nice, well proportioned, 3 box, 4 door taxi, hardly a truly classic design IMHO. Nothing stunningly special, just executed and I see hundreds of them every day, and never turn around or look twice at one. There are plenty of better shapes about.
Just my opinion, Matt

To be fair i didn't mention anything about a "classic design" its way to current to be classed a classic, I'm just referring to the shape and my personal opinion, a facelift 212 e63 certainly isn't common at all and i don't see hundreds of them not sure where you are lol that shape yes it is common but not the flagship model, saying that though the Sierra cosworth's were everywhere back in the day and nothing to shout about but now look at themBeauty is in the eye of the beholder but an E class saloon is just a very nice, well proportioned, 3 box, 4 door taxi, hardly a truly classic design IMHO.

Car looks stunning!
I too have been thinking of getting the windscreen tinted on my M3 like you mentioned. I think it looks cool but at the same time I don't want to ruin it and make the car look cheap so I'm a bit confused what to do really.
How much have you been quoted? I got told it's between £150 - £200

Sorry for the late reply!
£170 for my one.
As I mentioned before, some Mercedes do come with a slight purple tint to the screen so, if anything, it’s just going to enhance the tint.
I believe it will look great.

I was referring to just the E class in general, all personal preference of course

You are all wrong - W211/S211 was the best looking E class! Timeless and looked Just Right.
I'd still have one now if there had been something suitable around - anybody have a good condition/fully loaded/reasonable mileage S211 to swap for my S204

I have to agree, perfect from every angle. The pictures below is mine from the day I bought it, sadly PX for my W213, do I prefer the W213 to the W211, although W213 is a pretty good looking car, but hand on heart the W211 looked better from the outside, and the W213 just shades it from the inside. As for the driving dynamics, can’t make my mind up, probably equal.You are all wrong - W211/S211 was the best looking E class! Timeless and looked Just Right.

As the W213 was my fist Mercedes, and had it for 8 years, i have a soft spot for it. Learned a couple of days ago, that after PX, a month or so later was involve in an accident, became Cat B and has since been scrapped.
