Super review and very concise information. I actually learned two new things even after spending the last month reading every online review before I purchase next week. You're a very good presenter and should look at taking this further, (I am a TV cameraman for the last 30 years so I know). Well done!
Very nice review, don't listen to the people making fun of you Darren, I think your great, the only thing I don't get us when in practise I would be prodding the dashboard. Great video nonetheless!
Mercedes E Class is the most reliable choice in its class. Plus the most comfortable and cocooning in the long trips. If you take it with airmatic suspension there are very few things you will miss from the top S Class.
Good to Know. Does it rides like a S class? That is the only thing i look for is the best riding car gizmos bore me after a while but a nice riding car is true luxury. Old cars seem to ride much smoother all the virtues of new cars according to reviewers are all the things i hate.
Good presenting. Enjoyed the clear speaking. I would like to see a little more time on the driver's seat adjustment. Its so important that the car is comfortable. I like to adjust the seat base as far forward as possible to support my thighs and take pressure off of the lower back. Other people spending a lot of time behind the wheel may prefer a different adjustment.
Awesome car. AMG line 350 d premium plus has it all, tech, looks and power. I had an 18 Audi A8 and got rid 12 months later for this... far better car which was a massive surprise... solid dash, no rattles, glides unless in sport plus - getting 48 mpg in eco mode... and love watching boy racers red faces in the rear view... consider a remap to push to 320bhp.... 220d isn’t enough fun imo...
If one needs masses of space - and you’ll most likely need as seen in the video - then an E-class estete is a perfect choice 👍🏻 I would love to recommend it
@@madmatt1964ify the only cars I know, running over 1mln km are the MB-that's why they are used as a taxi-the rest try to copy them. Never heard of Audi or BMW going that long
No comparison given to the XF or the Volvo V90. German only then..!! same old same old. Can imagine what would be said if an Alfa had a dash that flexes...? Merc ..??
Excellent and professional reviews. But a reporter might at least be a bit apprentice, a bit to keep up to look if he can not get to physical appearance yet.
To small for a wagon plus i hate a computer on wheels. I like old school luxury. This is more for shallow people who are impressed by gizmos and things that do not matter..
why must you be cruel nd joke about the host.Don't you think all his life he has heard the" fat jokes".Darren if you are reading this well done sir.I love your review.Very aweome. i cant wait for you to review the 2018 s class and e class and the range rover velar.Darren you are awesome don't listen to what haters say .Love your work...from Moscow.
The U.K. government just made all petrol & diesel cars obsolete. Just forgot to tell the Germans? Recommending a car emitting 109 grams of poison every kilometre isn't very good either . . . .
Przykra sprawa ale kierowca o takich gabarytach obniża znacząco osiągi auta i podnosi spalanie... W ogóle to polecam 50 kg w dół zanim zacznie chłopak się narzucać swoją osobą w mediach wizualnych, ot choćby z tego powodu, że głównego bohatera (auto) zasłania. Obtłuszczone cielska nie są w modzie, dla mnie osobiście to ohyda. Zaraz ktoś powie, nie odpowiada, nie oglądać. Otóż nie mam zamiaru, natomiast co zobaczyłem to moja strata.
I could car less about the reviewer. i just want to know if this ride is 80 grand better than my old Lincoln town car somehow i do not think so but it is a nice iPad.

Does it have the multibeam led? They look strange
Its not "stretched"; the wheelbase is the same as the saloon.
Is the middle large screen an upgrade?

@@chonasimpson6487 The trick is to choose the smallest rims available with the largest tire sidewall.

No mention of 'essential' spare wheel, why not?

Skoda Superb makes the Mercedes E-class estate look small
How about Skoda Superb estate?
Leo Nidas - eh how about no
IVE GOT ONE BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED .HAVE HAD JAGS VOLVOS AND THIS BEATS THEM ALL HANDS DOWN
Do the rear seats fold completely flat?
chanala yes
Much better than a 5 series, Mercedes 👑
I wantes a 520, but they wouldn't sell me one after I was caught using the indicators on the test drive.......
Superb presentation skills.
Where on earth did you come up with 72.4mpg for the e220d it has a quoted mpg of 57mpg at best
BlueLightning 16 I have this car and easily average 70mpg on my 50 mile commute
And which Audi super smooth engine you are talking about?Never knew Audi has better diesel engines than MB ;-)
They don't. BMW is supposed to have the best diesel engines. The Benz is right up there with them.
@@madmatt1964ify can you prove what you just wrote? How come BMW has the best diesel engines?
@@MrLuba6a i just said that BMW is supposed to have the best engines. Europeans say Audi has the best diesel engines. They are all good.
@@madmatt1964ify the only cars I know, running over 1mln km are the MB-that's why they are used as a taxi-the rest try to copy them. Never heard of Audi or BMW going that long
Answer to the title question = Yes. Yes it is.
That’s why I thought long and hard and bought one. A beautiful 220 AMG Night Edition.
I believe the guy. Great review.
Wish he'd say how tall he is :( Back seat space would look different if he's 5'9 or 6'3.
What you want is a 2017 e220d with a premium pack; which gives you panoramic roof, command widescreen system and memory seats and mirrors
The 350d straight six is definitely a much better option for a car like this
I adore this car
Great review! Thank you
Had a 17 plate great car
Btw this my dream car
Excellent review.
Seems to be a lot of nasty people in this world , and you can bet the people making all the nasty comments are no oil painting themselves.
What's with What Cars obsession with lumbar support, bluetooth phone connection and entering sat nav destinations?
I've got to buy that foldable cage and keep it in my Audi hatchback !
Great car and review!
4 engines mentioned but only one petrol. The diesel lie is over so why is the car industry (and what car) still pushing diesel?
No comparison given to the XF or the Volvo V90.
German only then..!! same old same old.
Can imagine what would be said if an Alfa had a dash that flexes...? Merc ..??
Note to self: Do not poke dashboard hard
What Car just don't like mercedes e class to much.. that shows in their reviews of them. They are bmw fans.
Excellent and professional reviews. But a reporter might at least be a bit apprentice, a bit to keep up to look if he can not get to physical appearance yet.
As if I'm going to take motoring advice from Peter Griffin.
best comment in ages :))
soon you'll need an IT diploma to be able to drive these cars
Wow you can pair a phone to the car!....its 2017 of course you can pair your phone to a £40,000 mercedes.
Then why do I STILL see so many 'exec' car drivers using their phone hand held ?
To small for a wagon plus i hate a computer on wheels. I like old school luxury. This is more for shallow people who are impressed by gizmos and things that do not matter..
Maybe the body roll is due to the drivers weight! Just saying...
This guys stomach sticking out from under his jumper tho
Poor seat...
I assume you need the extra rear room for your lunch.

Reviewer must need all that extra room for his appetite

Good car, boring review...
Volvo V90 is better!!
What a bellend
He's veeery good at talking
