The MERCEDES-BENZ E CLASS (2006-09) E220 5DR ESTATE 2.2 CDI CLASSIC is a large premium diesel estate, combining executive-car comfort with luggage space. In the UK used-car market, it sits above mainstream family estates such as the Ford Mondeo, appealing to buyers wanting a more upmarket long-distance companion with room. It suits families, commuters and touring drivers needing a roomy load area and relaxed motorway travel. Mycarcheck’s four look-ups covered three VINs, making these figures a small snapshot: checked examples averaged £1,700 private-sale value, 202,000 miles, 10,000 miles annually and three previous keepers; the sample is limited and not representative. Its CDI diesel is aimed at economical progress rather than sporty driving, while Classic trim keeps the experience straightforward. The E-Class estate is known for comfort, long-distance manners and a generous boot; compared with mainstream rivals, its premium badge and refinement stand out, though age and mileage deserve careful checks.
