I have a CLK-220 CDi rocking an OM-646 Diesel and I can say Mercedes-Benz rule the Diesel world. Also got a 190-D with an OM-601...slow but built like a tank.
I have one of these cars and I really think it is the best car ever engineered. I 44mpg cruising at 80mph, I can get alomost 50mpg at the speed limit and it will outrun the Mercedes with the 5.5 liter V8's, it can outrun the 392 HEMI's on the open road, you need the supercharged V8 to beat the diesel and if you hot rod the diesel it will still take it. Plus running on high performance renewable diesel the emission out the tail pipe are way down, you crank up the fuel and boost and still avoid smoking with renewable diesel;. Plus these cars are cheap. People who failed to buy they at the time really missed out.
I have this car. Most of what you say is BS. no 44mpg at 80. 50mpg yeah right. its not outrunning a 392. You are not cranking up the fuel and boost without reprogramming the ECU How old are you? 20's? lol What are you smoking?
Better fuel mileage, longer lasting motor if treated well, and deleted of all the emissions. I don’t see how they could be so much more expensive in the long haul.
Which is all due to politicians being technically illiterate. The DPF diesels with urea are CLEANER than gas cars. Stay behind a modern diesel with a dpf (even without urea injection), sniff the air, nothing. Do the same with a gas car, and you'll easily smell the fumes. Crazy how much better diesel emissions changed in 20 years.
I mean even if that's true, the odds are that you could slip past any enforcement since these cars hide being a diesel very well. As opposed to a jacked up 7.3l Or similar diesel pick up truck.
I have the exact car with 240k miles . Runs and drives strong . The best car I have ever owned
I've got a black E320 CDI 3.2 2005 great car
This car looks beautiful , handsome, powerful and elegant. Unlike todays modern boxes that all look the same.
OM648 best engine
Absolutely
OM642
No, the 648 is better

They’re definitely not cheap compared any other W211, excluding AMG’s.
It will outrun the e55 in gas milage yes. But not acceleration
I have one and yes they are great cars.One of the very best.
Our cdi just turned 280k miles
It's so much more expensive then has these days!
Huh?

270 cdi owner. 5 cyl = better sound in my ears
They sound like the old Audi UR Quattro. Gloriously gruff note.
I could have bought one in 2016 for 2500, wish I had
cute da cuddly puppy
I get 45 mpg in mine
i can get 45 but going maybe 65 mph or a little less
$49,000? I paid $10k for mine with only 154k km like brand new
@floridaman5125 i paid $3k for mine, 200,000 miles runs perfect
i paid 9 with 70k miles
Barely breaking 265k miles on my baby 💕
cute cuddly kitty
This hasn't aged particularly well, considering that many cities are on the verge of banning diesel cars completely, or have already banned them.
Really? I didn’t know that wow
They are banning diesels because it is basically morons in power. Diesels pollute less.

I guess those cities won't get any deliveries...

All People say Diesel Car But I Say Tractor , I Hate Diesel Clatter and Exaust Smell it is Satan's Fuel.
it depends on the car. My father's diesel WV smelled bad, but my Mercedes cdi smells good, even pleasant I would say.
