The MERCEDES-BENZ R CLASS (2006-10) R350 5DR SPORT TOURER 3.5 V6 272 SE AUTO7 is a large, premium family people-carrier with SUV-like height and estate-style practicality. In the UK, it sits between an MPV and a luxury SUV, offering a roomier, more distinctive alternative to mainstream seven-seat family cars. mycarcheck.com records 16 look-ups covering 10 distinct VINs, so this is a modest sample rather than a complete picture. Within those checks, the average private-sale valuation was £2,900, average recorded mileage 116,000, and annual mileage 6,000. The cars had averaged 5.6 previous keepers, making a careful history check especially worthwhile. Its smooth V6 suits long-distance travel and makes carrying passengers and luggage feel effortless, while the tall cabin and flexible layout are standout strengths. Best for families needing space or drivers wanting comfort and presence rather than low running costs, it feels more luxurious and unusual than large mainstream MPV rivals.
