quite reliable

This is a very good car as long as you do the oil changes at or before schedule. It is prone to small oil leaks which shouldn't concern anybody.

Great on utility, reliability, & fuel economy

We needed a station wagon and my wife loves it. We use it every day for multiple purposes. The ride is comfortable and feels very safe on the highway. The secure feeling we get in this Mercedes far exceeds other makes that we've owned. I very much look forward to driving it (when wife allows).

Safe, reliable, joy to drive.

Probably one of the best cars I have ever driven, from a cost/benefit perspective. They are relatively cheap to buy used, and are a whole lot of car. I would buy this car again in a heartbeat, but unfortunately have to sell the one I have as it doesn't have enough space for what I do. Buy it and you won't be disappointed.

The best ride for the price

overall vehicle rides nice from 10-110 mph. Mpg is killer however, I average 17mpg here in CT where its a bit hilly. easily fit 5 adults in the car and go down the east coast. maintenance is a bit expensive , but It rarely breaks.

Great AWD Luxury muscle car

Bought this one owner e430 4matic Sport locally. Since it's older parts are readily available and reasonably priced. These cars are fairly bullet proof. They have a few known small problems like rear window regulators replaced mine with newer designed aftermarket brand. If you have even slightly mechanical ability you can fix it. Lots of videos on YouTube on how to repair. I've put over 10,000 miles and this car just purrs. It's got about 130,000 on it now. My previous car was a 97 e420 Benz got totaled. The 4matic is smooth and nothing has to be done except drive it. I upgraded all the fluids to full synthetic transfer case, transmission and both differentials. Upgraded rotors to drilled and ceramic pads also. A fun luxury muscle car. This car New was 60,000 dollars. They can be bought for around 5,000 dollars. Great bang for the buck.

Most performance and style

Performance will satisfy the driving enthusiast. Styling is classic that never gets old. Comfort is great around town or long haul. If you don't like this car you don't like driving.
