Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate (2010 - 2016) E350 BlueTEC AMG Line 5d Tip Auto Owner Review

I bought this car after having a Volvo V70 for eight years. The Volvo was very good but was not EU6 compatible. The replacement V90, in my opinion, was overpriced. This Mercedes, although understated in general appearance, goes faster than I can drive, completely effortlessly. It also has a huge load capacity. I dine out on the fact that can take a standard Euro pallet and still come back for more. Converting froma thinking man's pickup truck to elegant chaffeur driven luxury is very easy. It is noticeably quieter than the Volvo, although to be fair to the Volvo, the seats are a bit more spartan, but not enough to make you feel uncomfortable after a long journey. The Harmon Kardon sound system is very good. I simply plug a 32Gb flash drive into the USB socket and I have all the music I own on tap. On longer hauls, London to York, I get 700 miles to a tank. In town more like 350. Still pretty good for a six cylinder 245BHP 620Nm car. I have a strong feeling that with only 41,000 miles on the clock it will see me out, certainly in the style I have become accustomed to.
