The MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (1995-02) E240 5DR ESTATE 2.4 V6 AVANTGARDE TIP AUTO is a premium family estate from the executive-car class, offering more luggage space than the E-Class saloon. In the UK used market, it sits as an older, affordable alternative to newer estate cars, with comfort and practicality at its heart rather than low running costs or sporty pace. mycarcheck.com has recorded just four checks, covering four different VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot, not a broad market trend. The checks show an average private-sale valuation of £300, mileage around 139,000 and 3.25 previous keepers. The average annual mileage is only 2,000, which may reflect individual examples. This spacious estate suits families and travellers needing everyday load space. Its V6 and automatic offer relaxed progress, while Avantgarde trim adds an upscale feel. Compared with BMW 5 Series Touring and Audi A6 Avant rivals, its draw is classic Mercedes comfort and practicality; age makes condition and maintenance important.
