Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (2002-06) E280 4DR SALOON 3.0 CDI SPORT AUTO is a spacious, premium four-door saloon, sitting above ordinary family cars in the UK used-car market. Its smooth automatic transmission, diesel engine and Sport trim make it a comfortable, well-equipped choice for longer journeys rather than a small-town runabout. It offers traditional Mercedes presence without the cost of a newer executive car.
mycarcheck.com records 532 look-ups covering 286 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot of surviving examples. The average private-sale valuation is £1,700, with average recorded mileage of 136,000 miles and annual mileage of 7,000. Cars checked had averaged around 4.6 previous keepers, so condition, maintenance history and mileage deserve close attention; these figures describe checked cars, not a guarantee for any individual vehicle.
Its comfort and space suit commuters and families, while automatic rivals such as the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6 offer similar executive appeal; check condition carefully.
Considering a Mercedes E-Class? Theft, outstanding finance, write-offs, hidden damage or clocked mileage can turn a bargain into a costly mistake. Enter the reg now and check before you buy.
