Thinking of buying a 2015 E-Class.
Im thinking about buying a 2015 e class mercedes sl 2.1 just wondering are they a good reliable car and economical?? And is there anything i should look out for??
Our answer:
Hi Flor,
Nothing wrong with the fourth-generation (codename W212) E-Class, especially the E 220 CDI and E 250 CDI models that use the 2.1-litre engine. That unit can be a little loud and rattly compared to the latest and greatest modern turbodiesels, but the whole car is very well-built, reliable and pleasing to drive. It’s a sound used-car purchase proposition, provided all the paperwork checks out.
