W210 German Propaganda Video :D - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

DieselAddict · #1 01-17-2007, 03:51 PM

A cool video I came across on YouTube. I never knew that the Germans had all of these diesel options with the W210 chassis: E200 CDI, E220 Diesel, E220 CDI, E290 Turbodiesel, E300 Diesel, and E300 Turbodiesel. I knew they had CDI's and the E290 direct-injected diesel, but I especially didn't know they also had the E300 Turbodiesel. I thought that was a US-only model.

Love the W124 morphing effects. I guess I'm kinda warming up to the W210. Kinda.

I knew you'd like this video. You're probably the biggest W210 addict on this board since you have 2 of them.

I must say the propaganda is working even on me. Recently I was pondering whether to sell my E300, but after seeing this video I feel like no way am I gonna do such a foolish thing.

hahah.... there's 2 E300's in the Family :-) Senior has the '99 and I have the '97. It's funny though as you get used to the car you can forget what a nice car it is. Take a quick trip in any other car and when you return to the E, WOW all over again as if you first drove it.

Gotta admit, even though it has it's faults, it's one of the sexiest cars Mercedes has ever made.

The only car that ever got me laid and on a consistent basis at that was my 73 VW beetle. Im 6'2 you have no idea how complicated of a venture that is.

Hehe... no doubt... you should check out Mallrats, if you've never seen it before, sex in the back of a VW is a running gag through the movie.

Too many doodads for me. I was expecting that butterfly to end up on the grille!

Nice. Today they are probably one of the best bargins on the used car market. Its amazing how much E320 you can get for your money these days!

I think that E290DT had the bigger 602 in it...think 603.971 with a cylinder chopped off

...I wonder if they had rod bending problems with that motor too?

It was also direct injected and the next evolutionary step before the CDI engines.

That would be a nice replacement engine for an aging 190D 2.5T.

Found this while looking at the related videos bar on the side...

For the 124 fans... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TzrTz4jN-s

It takes almost three minutes for them to scroll through all the iterations of the 124 at the end
