Not so happy

A serious problem with a loud banging noise- and feels like a flat tire- in shop for the second time- was told it was the 4-matic system this is a $70,000 car. Not fixed yet. I have 4,000 mi. on the car. Mercedes is not what it used to be.I own many cars. I feel the quality of this car is poor. I also feel that Mercedes is not being responsible enough for quality control.

2004 E500 AWD wagon

This AWD wagon is fantastic. The driver gets a choice of sporty or cushioned ride at the touch of a botton. And the V-8 engine delivers power when needed. The Nav system is also very useful. This is a definite upgrade to the 1999 E320 I used to drive and also loved. My only disappointment is the relatively low number of miles per gallon.

I've had a love affair with this wagon since buying it in 2008 @54k miles. It has served me well and protected me for 9 years, and I wish I could get another one, but it's not made anymore. Sold it in March, 2018-had two buyers fighting over it. At this time in my life decided to get a hybrid car. Still miss my Mercedes.

Mercedes outdid themselves with this one. It is a pleasure to drive under all conditions.

After a disasterous 2000 E Class wagon (windshield leak, ox sensor fault, aircon breakdown...), this one seems much better put together and of much higher quality. The dark grey exterior is striking while the interior is much improved. I acutally think the wagon looks better than the sedan. They might have got it right this time.
