No switch or bag anywhere but it looks like instead of that stuff is just a delete panel.

Regardless, how's about some pics of all these passageways? I'm most curious about their inner workings. A few shots of the fold down process of the sear bottom folding forward would be priceless too! 😅

Seat folded forward. You can see the ski bag opening. They did not move the seat bottoms to the upright position so the seat backs could lay flat for this photo.

Not sure if anyone has seen this one?

Mercedes Black E320 CDI, 2006 DIESEL with less than 6030 miles Mint! - $32999 (Marietta)

It's a shame that they can't even get it out of the garage to take pics! I doubt it's been regularly maintained either.
For that kind of money, I'd rather have a late model E350 BlueTEC or new CLA myself!

Thank you!

That's a conundrum for sure. For the mid-$50Ks, you can tax/title/license and buy a new E250 Bluetec.

As per maintenance - there's not a lot necessary on a car that's got those kind of low miles on it. With full-synthetic oil, it's probably still within technical standards. Driven enough to keep it relevant, and ready to drive, IMO.

If one keeps the miles down, this car will likely retain much if not all of the asking price. Unfortunately, those dollars won't compound over time. I'd like to own it, but not for those dollars. Beautiful car, nonetheless.

Ck. your manual....I think it specifies folding seat bottom forward before folding seat back down.

Yes, it does look nice, but even with only 6Kmi it's still way over book value. The time to sell it & get that kind of money has long past unfortunately (due to the age of the car). And then to take pictures of it in a cluttered garage packed with junk & full of dust is something else!

Engine oil may retain sufficient additives for 2-3+ years when driving only a few hundred miles a year, but you have to wonder about the filter media eventually breaking down & the fuel/braking systems condition due to water absorption & resulting corrosion/contamination, if not changed or appropriately additized for storage.

I sent the seller an email asking for the VIN#, but so far have not heard back.

Same here. Just checked my email and haven't heard back either.

So what are some of the standard features you've discovered or enjoy on your E320 CDI (if you're new to the W211),
that your previous car(s) did not have?

I'll start off with a few!

-Dual zone climate control (w/ electric heater booster)
-One touch turn signals
-Ambient lighting
-Oil level check via MFD

Is the electric heater booster standard? I think i don't have that feature. But the head did seem to get hot fast when it was cold.

Mine is a 2006 with 148,000 miles on it -- navigation, parktronic, rear sunshade, in dash cd changer, heated leather seat inserts on front. It's silver with black mbtex except. I paid $8000 for it in Dallas , TX from a local small car dealer who loves mercedes and got it at auction. It was a trade in at a mercedes dealership. It has a small crack in right top corner of windshield, a scuff on the bumper , and needed a ball joint and central gateway unit, and navigation dvd and 1 glow plug. That brought it up to $9000 not including labor to put in ball joint which i haven't done yet. I greased it with a grease injection needle and it stopped squeaking. But now a few months later its squeaking again. Plus i had to pay 700.00 it taxes. Not a cheap car.

I love the automatic lights and windshield wipers, the rear sunshade is cool. The interior layout, and design is beautiful and really nicely done. The steering wheel controls are awesome. The center armrest cupholders are great . One thing its missing is a telephone connection which stinks because you can't add a blue tooth puck without it.

Also, a very annoying thing is you can't play regular dvds in the nav dvd player. There are options in the computer to allow this and i set them but it still didn't work. I read on benzworld in 2003 model years in us you could play dvds in there. Also europe models you can.

The navigation despite a little old is still worthwhile as it tells you what street you are on and your next turns right in the IC .

The I6 is easy to maintain and the body and suspension is nice solid mercedes stuff. Great cars.

I never noticed the 1 touch turn signals. I'll have to check that out.
