I drove a 96 when I was first looking for a W210. Had owned a turbo W123 and a W124 prior to that.
The test drive was in a hilly residential area. Could have walked to the top of the hill faster. That was the end of the test drive for me.
The W210 turbos from 98/99 have lots of pickup when kicked down and spooled up.
