I am looking to buy my first mercedes but it is a minefield out there. I would like an estate diesel with auto box. I do quite a lot of caravaing so it must be a good towing car. Can anyone advise me which is the best model to go for.
An 04/05 E320Cdi Avantgarde seems to fit the bill perfectly as it ticks all of your boxes, there are currently 3 on autotrader within your budget albeit with circa 90,000 miles on the clock with full service histories.Sorry about the lack of info, My budget is around £12000 for a decent used one and I would like one with a lot off bells and whistles. If it lasts me for about six years I`ll be happy. I only cover about 8000 miles a year but that doesn`t mean I want a gas guzzler. Somewhere in the region of a combined 35 MPG would be fine.
The combination of this engine and 7 speed box must make this one of the best tow cars around
