Used 2001 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Consumer Reviews
My E320 experience after 14,000 miles
The car is solidly built, like a "bank vault on wheels". It handles quite well in the rain at high speeds. I get an average of 25 MPG combined local and highway driving, computer showed 30 MPG at one time during a two hour freeway trip averaging 75 MPH speed. If you are looking for a safe, well engineered car with the latest technology, this is the car for you.

Not too bad
While under the generous 4 year 50K mile warranty I had lots of problems including driver's side mirror falling off due to cheap metal. The rear door regulator, transmission leak, cup holder, power headrests (twice) motor, lug nuts rusted away, and battery. But since the warranty was over it has only been an H20 sensor and the Teleaid antenna broke off. The styling is timeless and the ride feels like in an electric car. The motor is smooth along with the ride. There are no child locks for the rear doors though. Uses synthetic oil that needs to be changed every 10,000 miles. It gets better the longer I seem to go. Expect about 18 city and 28 highway
9 Years and still nice
Bought my E320 new in 2001. Overall, excellent ride, classy vehicle, virtually no maintenance until about 90K miles. Between 90 and my current 115K miles, I have probably put $3k into the car for repairs (cat covert, air, regular service) but nothing before that except scheduled maintenance. Some electrical problems started to show up at 110K miles so I may be looking again. Overall, I am very pleased with this car which looks great even after 9 yrs and 115k miles. Service at dealer has been good except for 45 minutes of shop time to replace a headlight bulb. Complained the next visit and they made it right. This is my second MB and I will probably buy another one.
what a sweet upgrade from an aging e420
7 months left on orig warranty - dealer tossed in 4yr 100k starmark extended warranty love the ride and the graphite leather interior with contrasting piping is sharp - feel like I got my money's worth ... will check back in a year and let youknow how it holds up.
