Got my Mercedes E250 CDI in Calcite White

I also Test Drove the E250 D.

It has Great Comfort.

The Acceleration is amazing. In fact I think they should make the Electronics Stronger to control Wheelspin.

You never feel the Speed. The car can touch quiet High Speeds and you will not feel that you are going fast. Many might consider it good but it can also become a problem if you are not keeping an eye on the Speedometer.

Mileage is bad. This person is driving very effeciently so he is getting 12.5 KMPL.

There is a Bit of Wierd feeling when going fast into corners. Do not try to be Tommi Makinnen by taking Jumps fast as the car does fly.

The Comfort/Sport button is nearly useless.

The Gearbox is not Jerky. Quiet smooth with the Upshifts.

The Brakes are AVERAGE.

If you have made up your mind to buy an E Class then buy the 250 as it offers Comfort which is missing in the 350.

I just remembered that the Spec Sheet says that the E 250 CDI comes with a 49 litre tank.

If the Spec Sheet is correct then the Owner is getting an Impossible Mileage of 20.4 kmpl.

LOL

The E250 petrol, as of what I've heard, has a rather light steering wheel... The V6 with a lighter steering wheel, should be a big bonus in traffic conditions..
