Hello all
Well after owning two amazing E55s, I ended up selling both because, well I was using them as dailies and just not very economical.
So I've done a lot of research and ended up looking at W212 E350 CDI's. I feel they still provide a solid punch but get much better fuel economy. I've narrowed the search down to two - both 2010 (60 plate) models.
The first is a 7-owner Calcite White one with 72k miles and at a dealer and its priced at £8995
The second is private party Palladium Silver one with 83k only 3 owners and what I think is a great price at £7500
I have both vins and they are almost identically equipped except the white one has Sport Seats (244) and the palladium silver doesnt. Also, I think white looks better with the pan roof.
White one - Mercedes-Benz E 350 CDI 2010-09-14 - WDD2120232A326302
Silver one - Mercedes-Benz E 350 CDI 2010-09-15 - WDD2120232A327453
But is it worth an extra £1500 for sport seats, -11k miles, sold by a trader with a 6 month warranty? The 7500 price is real tempting, and the owner seems to have taken very good care of the car, recently serving the gearbox and replacing the front discs/pads as well.
Any advice and input is welcome, thanks in advance
