MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (2002-06) E500 4DR SALOON 5.0 AVANTGARDE AUTO 7SP
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (2002-06) E500 4DR SALOON 5.0 AVANTGARDE AUTO 7SP is a premium four-door executive saloon, offering more space and presence than a typical family car. In the UK used market, it is a high-performance alternative to everyday saloons, with a premium image and a powerful 5.0-litre petrol engine.
It suits experienced drivers wanting comfortable long-distance travel, effortless overtaking and a roomy cabin, rather than first-time motorists or fuel-cost-conscious commuters. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 155 checks across 45 distinct VINs, a useful sample for this older Mercedes E-Class model. Its average recorded mileage is 119,000, with average annual use of 3,000 miles.
Check records show 5.3 previous keepers on average and a £1,500 valuation; these are figures, not an asking price or condition assessment. Against rivals such as the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6, the E500 stands out for its V8-powered pace and comfort, but expect costs to reflect its performance.
Buying a used Mercedes E-Class? Outstanding finance, write-offs, hidden damage, theft or mileage discrepancies can turn a prestige car into an expensive mistake. Enter the reg now and check before you commit.
