Hello All,
One week into a (new for me) 2016 E400 convertible I had a check engine light come on. Two weeks later it’s into Mercedes to troubleshoot. Apparently the knock sensor threw up the warning light, but they discovered it’s due to excessive rust and there’s water ingress into the...
I appreciate these are rare (unpopular?) but it’s turning out to be one of my favourite Mercedes to date.
I'm averaging just under 40MPG with mixed usage, town and countryside, and for a 450BHP SUV that’s pretty good in my book.
The car typically runs on electricity up until around 20%...
I must admit I was chasing a designo interior (adds heated rear seats and steering wheel) but I couldn’t find a low enough mileage one (mine only has 22k).
This car is very nice to drive, it sits lower than my previous GLE, it also feels a tad quicker in steering. The brakes are obviously...
I’m 220% better off in power, I’m out of a diesel (with all the negative connotations that they bring).
I now have height adjustable air suspension, a 360-degree camera, panoramic roof, AMG spec, and to top it all off, it’s black.
This wasn’t a cost cutting exercise. I want to drive what I...
So I bought one.
First impressions are very good - it certainly teaches you to drive smoothly. The engine recharges the battery in about 30 miles (obviously on a run).
Initial morning run (battery only) is good for about 9 miles, it is hilly here. The best setting looks to be in the hybrid...
I’m just becoming more aware of the whole anti-diesel thing. I personally think values will start to fall and I wanted to be ahead of the game.
My buddy has a Tesla SUV which is outrageously fast and obviously very economical - without going full electric I think this GLE is a good...
I’m in a GLE diesel now - I’d like to switch back to petrol and this does look good on paper.
I do short town hops so the low battery distance is negligible, but I do like a ‘spirited run’ every now and then. I was just getting a feel for typical MPG.
I bought an AMG E63, and I don’t need...
I had to go to Gatwick this morning, first I filled her up with 95 Ron unleaded 'Tesco special' fuel - because I had a 5p off per litre voucher.
Ran 70-72 MPH all the way there rarely exceeding 3000RPM, did exactly the same on the way back but had a mad 3 miles of over the speed limit fun -...
