Description

The 2012 Mercedes‑Benz E220 CDI SE delivers a composed and refined drive thanks to its smooth 2.1 litre diesel engine and seven‑speed automatic transmission. It feels confident on the motorway with strong mid‑range torque and a compliant suspension that soaks up everyday imperfections while keeping the car poised through corners.

Inside, the cabin is spacious and quietly finished, with comfortable seats and thoughtful touches that make longer journeys easier. Practical boot space, very economical running and a clear two‑owner history with a fresh 12‑month MOT make this E‑Class a sensible, well‑rounded choice for buyers seeking comfort and low running costs.
