2008 Bluetec
My wife just took delivery of a new E320 Bluetec.
1. Is this a 211 chassis? 2. Where is the oil filter? Is it accessible from the top of the engine as was my 123?

Nice car! It is a W211. The W212 will debut in '09 as a '10 model. Sorry don't know about the filter...

I'll never consider a BluTec. Talk about squeezing everything together, that looks like a nightmare!

Thanks to all.
IRT the underhood nightmare; I fully agree. They cover it up with a nice plastic thing however. I really wish my Bride would have been satisfied with a really good 123.

Yeah now they are probably at 1980's levels. Not quite Lexus but not to far off.
All the people I know with 2007+ MB's don't really seem to have any big issues.

The V6 was designed as a throw-away engine. The 05-06 E320 CDI is the newest MB Diesel I would consider buying unless they come out with a better engine.
