2010 Mercedes W212 E Class E350 CDI Sport, 2006 Mercedes W169 A Class A170.
Whos not going to pick the car they own? Got to be 212 for me out of the ones in the video.....but of course a 213 is a better car even with its non descript melted profile that makes it very difficult to tell from a C Class from further away that about 30 feet! Id take the two older ones (123, 124) over the 211 I'm afraid......love those classic lines. And they are classic cars now. 211 has not aged as well as the other IMO........and although I did look at a very good value one before I bought my 212 and I could not live with the interior that reminds of the tardis from the 70s! They are all great cars and I could put up an argument for buying any of them.
I still prefer the PFL 212 to the facelift version as well......its seemed to lose some definition of design when it lost the rear arches and the twin headlights....but again just personal taste.
The 211, to me, rides far too soft, putting comfort ahead of handling...which will appeal to some....not me though.....and the 212 dash and interior is MUCH more modern, looks better and has no noticeable downgrade in quality to me.....but I know others will disagree with that.
No 210?.....maybe they couldn't find one that had not largely dissolved and returned to nature!!.....no offence to owners....but to me its by far the ugliest E ever built....possibly one of the ugliest Mercs. Cue flaming!!!
Might start a thread on the Ugliest Mercs!!!

The W210 may not be a looker, but its an extremely comfortable and capable car. Such a shame the tinworm has put paid to most of them now.
My first W210 below.
