Mercedes E Class 2003-2009

The Mercedes E-Class is one of the most distinctive cars on the used car market and available in the Egyptian market. It's a luxury sedan with a distinctive exterior design, a sophisticated interior, various engine options, and a confident drive. The third generation of the car, the W211, was launched between 2003 and 2009. This generation received an improved version in 2006 as the 2007 model, and the Tiptronic transmission was dropped. The E500 versions were among the best-selling models worldwide, featuring engines ranging from 5,000 to 5,500 cc. This generation was offered in Egypt in several trim levels, including the E 230 Classic, E 280 Elegance, E 280 Avatgrade, and E 350 Elegance. The car is characterised by dynamism, luxury and safety. It is available with high-tech V6 engines and high-level equipment that make it stand out in the luxury saloon car category.

Both versions of the E 280 come with the same engine, producing 231 hp and accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds and a top speed of 248 km/h.

The car boasts good acceleration, a variety of engine options, and a confident, reliable drive. It also achieves good fuel consumption, considered among the best in its class.

The car's interior, like its exterior, has a distinctive design. The car offers generous front-seat space. The cabin is both practical and luxurious, with curved lines, soft materials, and numerous chrome accents. It features a stylish four-spoke steering wheel with buttons and various interior color options. The dashboard flows beautifully, blending into the sides of the car and the center console. Distinctive wood accents and plastic panels give the car a luxurious interior appearance. It also features distinctive gauges, an LED-illuminated speedometer, a display screen, distinctive interior lighting, and a traditional clock.

The car's drawbacks are that the rear seat space and storage capacity are limited, although the front is better. The 2007 model was larger, longer, and wider to address this shortcoming.

Spare Parts

50%

The car has high spare parts prices, which is normal for Mercedes cars. Anyone who wants to buy one of these cars will be sufficiently aware of the prices of its spare parts, but in the end, the spare parts are durable and the car maintains its value. The availability of spare parts is good and requires some effort, but they are available and there is no shortage of availability. The prices of spare parts for the C-Class and E-Class are considered the lowest among Mercedes cars and less than the S-Class. They also last for a long time. Mercedes cars share many parts and components, and the differences are greater in the engines.

Suspension

70%

The car features a Direct Control system, which improves the performance of the suspension, automatic transmission, and steering wheel directions, increasing the car's stability and balance on the road, especially on curves. The improved suspension makes it faster and more balanced in turns, increasing the car's sporty flair and making it a better driver. It features a four-link suspension at the front, as in the S-Class models, with a five-link rear suspension that controls any unwanted wheel movement, making for a distinctive driving experience and a higher ride comfort.

The car offers a comfortable ride, and vibrations are minimal and there is no wind noise inside. The steering system has also been improved in this generation of the car.

Resale

80%

The Mercedes E-Class is one of the cars that retains its value to a great extent and resale value for its customers and clients. There are no problems with resale value and the price is good when selling the car. The car is considered one of the most famous and popular luxury sedans in the world and most of its customers do not announce any complaints about it and confirm its practicality and luxury.
