The Appeal
This W211 is the kind of classic E-Class that you hope to find, namely a well-specified, V8 model with surprisingly few miles. That it has also spent most of its life on salt-free Japanese roads, a nation with high maintenance standards, is a big added bonus.
The car is tastefully finished in dark blue metallic with black leather. Inside and out is in very good order. As a high specification ‘Avantgarde’ model, it has useful extras like high-end stereo, sunroof and rear sun blind. We are told that it has been well-maintained and has an accident-free history. A fine and very usable 306bhp executive express.
