My father ordered a post facelift E-class with the 320 diesel engine. He takes delivery in 2-3 weeks. I was wondering whether you know of a good Mercedes E-class forum. I've found this:

http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w211-e-class/

but just wondering if there is anything worthy of note out there?

We'll have an interesting back to back comparison - he now drives the previous E Class and I have the 530d so we'll be able to judge Merc's progress and how it compares with the beemer.

I've no idea how good this site is as I don't normally cruise the 'other-side' so to speak.

I'm hearing good things about the face listed E-class. It's suppossedly a very good driver now and possibly much closer to the 5-series than possibly BMW would even like to think.

that's right, the early reviews on the updated E-class have been very positive. It looks like a very solid piece of kit.

I also heard positive reviews and I like how MB has a diesel available - too bad it is not available with a sport package. I guess MB thinks diesel drivers aren't into handling?
