Talk:Mercedes-Benz E-Class (W210)

"Very unique, classy close out -- a tribute to this legendary line of Mercedes Benz E-class. These will be collectors car in 20 years. It was sold at premium." (This is very subjective) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.240.100.159 (talk) 18:33, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

I have a 1999 E430 MBZ and are a total tosser. I am able to put the shift gear in all geasrs however when pressing the accellerator, the car will not move in drive or in reverse. I have 198,000 miles. IS this amount he lifespan of a transmission since the seller "seals for life" the transmission fluid?

W210 perception
A common perception among possessors of old MB cars is that the W210 is a "failed series", compared to the W124, W140 and (less) W123 series (the latter rather simple IRS makes for a tricky drive on wet roads).

Compared to its W124 predecessors, it not only has more reliability problems but is also perceived as being lacking in handling.

W210 suspensions may be more refined than W124's, being the latter the first E series with multilink rear suspensions, but any such improvement is lost in an augment of weight and dimensions that is greatly reflected in an augment of the inertial momentum of the car.

Probably this is also exacerbated by the fact that the much improved passive safety of the W210 - with side airbags and anti-intrusion bars in the doors - means that much of the two hundred (or more... an Italian specs W124 200E weighs less than 1300 kg) kilograms gained in the passage from W124 to W210 are in places far distants from the car center of gravity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.41.58.163 (talk) 17:25, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

United States bias
This article is United States-biased. A chief offender is the use of what are presumably US dollar figures (but never stated: many other countries use dollars as a unit of currency, and their relative values vary wildly). Parts costs are region-specific, so mentioning them without further qualification (e.g. this part can be expected to cost $X in the US) is worse than useless. --Oecology (talk) 03:16, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
