What Owners are Saying About the 2001 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
"Awesome Car: Most dependable"
"This Mercedes still is an eye catcher today. Incredibly comfortable on long trips. So solid, so safe and So dependable. Bullet proof engine."
"So much fun. So reliable. A classic!"
"Totally worth the money. We are hard on cars and our Mercedes E320 is lasting through all the wear and tear. The repair cost vs the mileage is remarkable. Our air is out and not worth fixing, but I would drive cross country on a cool day in a minute... No worries! I expect it to work past 300,000 miles just keep up with oil changes."
"Classy old friend"
"Bought at 19 years old - 1 owner - 62k on the clock. Have driven it daily for 2 years (admittedly not the best in the snow) and have just garaged her. No more winters!!! Highly reliable, stately, easy to drive and great on gas. I plan to keep this car “forever” now it’s no longer my daily driver. If you’re looking for a strong, capable, classy car for not much money, consider it. Any old car needs stuff (I’ve done steering rack, ac compressor, battery, etc) but the materials, fit and finish are better than most new cars. Get one or give one. But only if it will be appreciated!"
