The MERCEDES-BENZ R CLASS (2006-10) R320 5DR SPORT TOURER 3.0 CDI 224 SE AUTO7 is a premium diesel people carrier with a high-riding, estate-like shape. It occupies a rare UK niche: more luxurious than a conventional MPV, yet roomier than most executive estates, and well suited to long family journeys. mycarcheck.com has recorded 178 look-ups covering 78 different VINs, a useful sample of interest in this older model. Checks show an average recorded mileage of 124,000 and around 5,000 miles driven annually; the average private-sale valuation is £3,600. These figures describe checked cars, not every R-Class or its condition today. The R320's six-cylinder diesel and smooth seven-speed automatic suit families wanting space and comfort, or drivers covering motorway miles; check age and running costs. Unlike boxier people carriers, it feels more like a luxury tourer, offering a distinctive alternative to larger SUVs such as BMW's X5 in the UK market.
