E500s are rare as bulk are 320s - 500s have some serious power...

yep.. I was of course talking about a W124 'real' E500 (ie 500E).. not the new E500 which is just a boring E-class :).
 
I actually thought you were referring to E500 W211 but either way both are rare - 500E was limited production and therefore very desiarable. Both are lovely motors. ;) So far, I have not seen one W211 E500 but 2 500E (which is strange..)

Morning Flash,
In my very own opinion there is not much going for the E500 when you look at all the performance figures.

When I was looking for a new vehicle I briefly considered the E55 Estate, but common sense cut in. It is completely impractical for the individual circumstances that I wanted the car for. (brilliant vehicle though)

My regret is that I did not get the full AMG kit on the vehicle we ordered. (I do not think you can order the AMG exhaust for the 320CDI)

E500's are thirsty and are about 1.7sec quicker going from 0 - 62.5mph

500E's are beautiful and the end of an era.

Regards,
John
