Most comfortable w212 facelift

[Delosk8]

Hi all,

I used to have w211 e320 elegance and really liked the suspension. I already drove some w212 avantgarde and they are not far off. Unfortunately there is no avantgarde in facelift model. Which model has a comfort suspension along with a great equipment?

Avantgarde and Elegance has been discontinued on all models to my understanding.
If you want a comfortable model W212, look for one which hasn't got an AMG (line) badge on it, one that has smaller 17" alloys and higher profile tyres. None of the Sports models will be what you are looking for. Air suspension is nice, but may be limited to certain models and then only the rear suspension.

As far as equipment goes, make a list of the options that are a priority to you (360 camera?, light interior?, panoramic sunroof? etc) and make them part of the search for a new car. Buying a used car, your options are limited to what someone else has chosen for the cars you look at.

Thank you AMGeed!
I’m not very fussy (I think…) as it’s me and my wife who drive a car daily I would like to have powerful 3.0 diesel after 2010 (as they have revised oil cooler and few other main issues fixed) memory seats and comfy suspension. I have actually found some great looking car, but nobody know what suspension it has. It has both the Luxury and Sports package. I have the full build sheet I can send over after editing sellers details if somebody is willing to help determine what type of suspension it is.

Any chance that somebody can tell me what suspension this car got ?
BTW Why I couldn't just edit the previous post ?

I googled mercedes direct control suspension,quite a number of sites giving the information you seek.

Tried that already but let me qoute one of them „All E-Class models feature Direct Control suspension with Avantgarde and Sport models”…

is it really that hard to tell me if you know the answer? If you don’t then you at least realise that is much easier to google something or check on youtube than register here, upload all the pics etc. If it was that simple I wouldn’t ask for help on the forum.
