New to the Forum and New to MB Ownership

[Woody75]

Hi All.....After 25 years of BMW ownership I have finally moved into the world of MB after p/exing my E39 towards a lovely W211 E320 CDI. I've always liked the shapes of the older series of MB, much like BMW.

I've only owned the car for 2 weeks but I'm absolutely smitten, fantastic build quality and a timeless shape, I don't think I'll be doing too much to it but I'll definitely look to swap out the 17" wheels for some newer AMG 18" if I can find the right ones.

I'm sure I'll be looking to use the collective hive brain around here for advice, so many thanks in advance.

Here's a pic of my taxi (as my wife has started to call it)



Cheers,
Woody

Welcome to the Forum Woody!

My 2008 E320CDi has just passed the MOT with no advisories at 172,000 miles.

I have 3 other cars available to me but still find the W211 a very pleasant place to be.

Regards

David
