The MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (2002-06) E220 4DR SALOON 2.2 CDI CLASSIC is a large diesel executive saloon, positioned above family cars in the UK used market. Its four doors, generous passenger space and separate boot make it a comfortable alternative to a hatchback, especially for longer journeys and everyday commuting. Mycarcheck.com recorded 21 checks covering 18 distinct VINs, offering a small snapshot of cars searched. The average private-sale valuation was £1,100; average recorded mileage was 183,000 miles, with about 6,000 miles driven annually. Cars averaged just over four previous keepers, making an individual history and condition check worthwhile before purchase. The E220 CDI Classic suits commuters and families seeking comfort, though it is less suitable as a first car than a small hatchback. Its composed character and diesel appeal helped the E-Class compete with the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6; at this age, check service records and wear carefully.
