The Appeal
The W211 was one of the last cars to be treated to Mercedes-Benz' legendary built quality, before the company began moving into less over-engineering and more into ritzy features. It's quite the hurrah, too - solidly built, very comfortable and offering refined, long-distance cruising. In E320 Avantgarde specification, with its smooth 3.2-litre 6-cylinder diesel engine paired to an automatic gearbox, it represents the lineage's keystone.
This silver example has been in the same family since August 2013, having been acquired as a one-keeper car. It has since been used for local trips and family touring holidays rather than daily commuting. A stamped service record accompanies the car, with the most recent service carried out at 103,337 miles.
Recent expenditure has been comprehensive, covering both mechanical and cosmetic work, and the car is accompanied by an MOT valid until August 2026.DSC04117 Lewis Foord.jpg900.35 KB
