I bought one 2005 E500 V8 with 126000 mile 5 yrs ago. I paid $4000 for it but last owner just spent $3000 in dealer service . I DIY changed the new air struts , fuel injectors, spark plugs and fuel pumps , transmission fluid with filter gasket service and 4 new tires. It total cost me about $9000. Very good car, I drove 5 yrs now is 160000 miles.

I have a 2005 E320 4Matic bought it 3 year's ago one owner with 38,000 miles for $10,000 now sitting at 63,000 miles. The key to long life and to avoid expensive repairs with German vehicle's is to follow the recommended scheduled maintenance! Fantastic quality and will run all day at 80-100 mph. If you find one in good shape with record's buy it you won't regret it!

You forgot w210, it was the first E class to have four font lights not w211.

Those gas prices at 711 nearly put a tear in my eye

since its apparently not obvious, this is a Doug Demuro parody I made for fun i understand the info in the video is partially incorrect

Thanks for making this. You helped my purchase.

Don't know how this video got suggested, but glad i chose to view it! Enjoyed the laughs this parody provided! You nailing the Doug Demuro squat next to the car, in shorts, had me dying laughing!!!

Very pleasurable to drive a bit under powered for it's weight but quite comfortable on long trips though . My favorite thing about the Merc brand is their features ,.

Mine is the loaded one. With cooled seats and massage seats

I am in love with this car😍😍😍😍

The first E class with dual round headlights were the W210, not the W211…

There goes all your money good luck with that guys😂

I want to buy E320 bluetec 2008. What you think about this engine?

Pretty stoked to find a video like this. I had an 05 E320 in Miami back in 2016 I bought for about $6k at the time. It had about 100k miles on it when I bought it and me being 23 at the time was just amazed by how well the 11 year old car looked and drove. I had it for about 2 years and spent about $4k on various repair costs such as: Repairing leaky valve cover gaskets Replacing a leaky radiator Replacing the AC unit Replacing the wiper motor Replacing control arms Replacing spark plugs and some belts Replacing rear brake discs and pads Straight piped it (removed cats) 4 new tires 2 services I was into this car for about $10k but sold in 2018 with 140k miles on it for about $4k. Although it was money lost, it taught me a lot about older Mercedes cars and well built they are how comfortably they ride on the highway. It has changed my driving style too. I have now switched over to another E Class a W213 E300. Although the 300’s 2.0 engine is more powerful than the 320, I miss the linear torque and smoothness of the V6. The new car is better than the 320 in many ways but the 211 320 had that something special to it. Everytime I see one in good shape go by, I stare at it.

How you have the aux on that radio?

First E class to have two seperate lights are W210

W210 had four headlights, 2006-2007 E350 had bad balance shafts and transmission issues. Most of these cars had MB text a leather like material. Only the avanguard versions had real leather. No Bluetooth until 2007

I know a man who purchased a new 2022 Mercedes last year. It has 16,000 miles on it, and my scan tool shows 26 fault codes already. It drives and handles fine, but that's for now.....[jaws music]

Are the headlights not Xenon?!

Wind screen on the mic!

I got a e500 it’s amazing. Same year

Mine is a 2005, its been perfect for years with nothing going wrong. The trick is oil changed every 5.000 miles, I do it myself.

That's not a 3.2l , is 2987, i own this car long time now it has 294k km and is far more better than the new modern cars

good-by, kid

I'm still driving a W211 2005 E350 AvantGarde. The car has 109,000 km (~70,000 miles) and remains a great pleasure to drive. Nearly 20 years post-release it is more than competitive with the many horrible goods produced now. The W211 was not only "advanced for its time" as the first drive by wire vehicle, it remains advanced in 2024. This is especially true now, when MB no longer fits classic, proven, under stressed, sophisticated, high capacity V6 or V8 engines to any models at all :-(( Now, top of the line Benz cars use twin-turbo, over stressed little 2.0 litre engines, rather than the E350's superior quad cam, quad valve 3.5 litre V6 producing just under 300 bhp. It rarely needs 2000 rpm but happily revs out to 6,700 rpm, if you're blunt. It has the world's first 9-speed auto box (7 forward, 2 reverse), 10 airbags, 10 speakers and COMAND still does everything well, all without a touchscreen. It does much more than any 2024 consumer product and always with greater safety. Tip: The 2-zone climate control is completely set and forget if Auto mode is selected.

I wonder about all that water vapor out the exhaust in obviously warm weather

After 10 years my e320 got totalled by an amazon truck. I honestly stand by that it was the best cars I've ever had.

An E-class that has heated seats but is without a power rolling rear sunshade??? Strange...

doug score?

I have a 2004 E320 With 81,000 original miles and want to sell it. Is all original and everything works perfect, it has Panorama Roof, Harmam Kardon factory Sound System and many other amenities. Car is located in Georgia, USA.

Lmfao i love it

Make more parody reviews. I have a 2013 Audi RS5 you're welcome to check out if you live near TX!

Loved your review, just 1 suggestion, sometimes the bandages etc can be well out of date. It may be credible if you suggested to viewers to check the dates in their older cars & even add to the standard First Aid kit. Good luck with your reviews.

I can dig it

I guess I never realized these were also European. I recently was rear-ended pretty badly in my Audi. I just got reimbursed for it and I’m looking to probably purchase another European car. I was in another wreck which was my own fault when I was about 19 or 20- it was in a VW. I flipped my car 5 1/2 times on my way to work super early. I know the only reason I’m alive today from either of those wrecks (the recent one, I had been parked on the side of the road with a flat tire, and barreled into by a sleeping driver ) are bc of the safety features in those European vehicles. But the Audi is 4 cylinder. .. granted, it’s fast, but as someone who used to own a 3.2 L Mitsubishi 3000 GT (special edition) 5 speed, I am very impressed with the 6 cylinders on this car! I’m going Wednesday to start shopping around, and I’m definitely going to keep this one in mind !

Didn't mention the crazy SBC braking system as far as I could hear, and that is expensive if it goes wrong. Removed by 2007

w210 had 4 headlights

I stopped watching your video when you said W211 was the first E class to have 4 headlights, where do you put W210 then?

I give Doug a 1 1/2 out of 100 for comparing a 2005 to any car of total🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️💯💯💯😂😂😂

C’mon dude. No originality brother.... just BE YOU! Youl have more success i promise. No one likes copy cats broseph. Other than that, good job!

More fool me brilliant

The W210 had four headlights.

Can barely hear you

Love the shape quality build but when things go wrong U need deep pockets with plenty of doe inside U could spend a week on a scan tool looking at fault codes I had a friend who had a coupe stunning he was always raving about it until engine trouble he walks around now like a vacrant after the repair Bill 💸💵 still in ICU

Paul The Rebel I am ur biggest fan!!! Also, ankit is sausage boy

Is this website obselete?

I think U mean it started with W210 poor kid

Doug ?

The wind and background noice is terrible -

Couldn’t listen anymore... you need to sort mic out too much background noise

Which is better E320 or E350

I have 2004 e320 it sucks the audio i ripped it out out android 9 inch changes all spekers JL audio now i am doing the sub. No more cd

Can barely hear you.

😂

hahaha

😂😅🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can't hear ya!

dont quit your day job!

so much wrong in this video...

Look at those beautiful gas prices. $2.36 regular. Now over $3.36. Ladies and gentlemen welcome to Joe Biden’s America.

Wtf

!!!!!?????.

“The w211 was the first to have 4 headlights across”

Knock off Doug😂😂😂😂😂 U can get one from China

6.3 seconds -60mph.... mate... no. I owned 7 years ago a clk 320, same block, power, shit load lighter, even with the gearbox not being the same, they are slow cars - they go top end circa 120 + granted but not at all a quick car and certianly dont time 6.3 - maybe the 500 yes, iv driven one of those and they are pretty quick but nothing to wirte home about, a golf r would blow it away.

worst. car. video. ever....

Sorry pal, you are wrong. The W210 was the first E Class to have four headlights across the front. The W211 slanted the oval headlights inwards & that's the car you have there!

Copy paste....

You have to compare it with the year not today's cars. Gtfoh
