Used 2000 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan Consumer Reviews
Lousy reliability
Car had 22000 miles and manufacturer's warranty (never wrecked, dealer serviced, full records). Can't find a better more solid feel in a midsize but the reliability is horrible. Everytime I crank it up I hope the radio works correctly. MB uses soft plastic, not hard, designed to break. Visor vanity covers break off routinely. Don't pull on seat backs, they will break off in your hand. Catalytic converter broke. Key system is horrible, locks are stiff and keys are skinny. Will buy American made Lincoln next time.
Don't Be Fooled By Imitations
I've owned the E-class since the 1993 400E. Our current E430 is evident of M- B's efforts in giving design priority over engineering. With that said, the E430 is a very sound car. It drives, feels, and looks luxurious. It's the real thing, not a Toyota, Honda, or Nissan rebadged. Don't be fooled by the gingerbread of these imitators!

Great Reliable Car
We wanted new technology so bought a 2016 MB E350. Car received regular maintenance at MBI in Portland, OR (Kevin). Records available. New front brakes, radiator July 2016.
