Price and equipment9.0/10

It has everything I need for around town and long distance interstate driving

Under the bonnet7.0/10

Turbo diesel power is more than adequate. A little loud at idle only issue.

How it drives9.0/10

I have not had a 'jeeeez' moment after 40,000kms both city and interstate driving.

Comfort and practicality9.0/10

We have recently completed our second trip to Queensland covering approximately 800km per day and we step out of the car still fresh albeit a little weary.

Servicing and running costs9.0/10

I am just about to have it serviced for the first time.Fantastic PLUS. I yielded me 1440km per tank (80ltr) on my trip to Qld. Unbelievable!

Aesthetics and styling9.0/10

Dk grey w/ Black trim. I like the smooth finish of my previous E class 2006 and little more than the 'edges' on this model.

Safety and security10.0/10

I feel at home and safe in this car.Lighting is exceptional, although automatic high beam takes a little getting used to. I stays on longer than I would do using the manual operation.

Quality and reliability5.0/10

Quality is only downer. The drivers seat is coming apart, and wear on back rest of driver seat frayed.Reliability so far is excellent

Overall verdict9.0/10

Best car I have ever owned in 44 years of driving from approximately 50-60 cars I've owned.
