Dear Members,
I am somewhat confused,during the past 4 months I bought 2 Mercedes W211 both of them 320 cdi v6 diesel engine and both 7 speed.
The first one is 2005 Avangard with 114,000 mls, ( bought from a petrol station) I drove the car overland to home ( 2500 mls to Malta) I was so much surprised with the
performance of this car ( which was to be owned by my brother in law) that I deceided to buy a similar one for myself.
So I bought a (Mercedes approved) 2007 Sport W211 with 41,000 mls.
I drove the car to home again but once on the motorway I soon discovered,the performance of this car is lot less from the privious one !!
I had a breakdown in Italy and had it towed to a MB dealer there,the trouble was a fault in the gearbox electronic command module,they replaced the whole unit ,with all expenses paid by warrenty.
I continued my drive to home without any problem except that I still don`t have the power and performance as the first one !!
Both cars have the service History by MB dealers.
Any ideas please ??
