[75driver]

I've a 2009 e220 auto, but no walnut I'm afraid.😪
Lovely to drive, if your not into trashing around the corners. Bit like a big comfy barge.😁
Much comfier & quieter (inside) than both my 75,s.
However, it sounds like a tractor outside.😄
My normal drives are approx 100 miles at a time.
The merc averages 45, the auto tourer -43, the manual saloon-48. All brim to brim.
The merc is no harder on tyres than the 75 imo, having just got 26k out of a set of (tbc???), and still had at least 2 or 3mm of thread.
I'm only just getting back in the merc, (doesn't like white stuff), having driven the 75 saloon all winter.
It's a nice place to be.👌
That said, I had a 2004 e270 about 9 or 10 year ago, which was better again, more smoother & refined, as it was a 5 cylinder.
Do plenty of reading, as, like the rover, they can all have their problems.
Pre 2008/2009, will be significantly less efficient for mpg.
Also, mine has the OM651 engine, which can be prone to timing chain issues, costing over £1k, to fix, if what I've read is correct.😱😱.
