Hi Folks,
First off, what a great forum.
I have a W211 E320CDI Stright six Estate that I purchased in Dec 2017 .
My Previous car was a W210 E320CDi Stright Six . Only had 256k miles on as well. Running perfectly but the dreaded rust took hold. Boooo.
The new W211 has a lot to live up to. First impressions is the cabin is a nice place to be and the stereo is great. Engine is nice as well but Merc seemed to have slowed the gearbox down a bit and refined it . Not quite as economic as the old W210 but I can live with that.
Very happy with the car. Had the gearbox oil and filter changed along with engine oil/filter change when I first got it for peace of mind. It's a great tow car ( as was the other one ) . Tow's my race car and trailer without a problem and still manages about 30pmg which I think is fantastic.

Right, better get back to work.
