MERCEDES BENZ E-Klasse (W211) (2002 - 2006) Description & History

Released in 2002, the new E-Class represented a yet another leap from the original design. Sporting a slightly altered look and minor engine tweaks as well as a more luxurious interior complete with a choice of leather upholstery and wooden highlights, the new E-Klasse appeared as a toughened vehicle which had completed another evolutionary stage. Thus, the car was finally deemed as a worthy competitor against the BMW 5-series which Mercedes had been trying hard to dethrone for some time. Despite the improved quality of the vehicle, some of this generation models are know to have radiator contamination leaks which, strangely, were not solved by Mercedes in any way.
