Summary

The Mercedes-Benz E 320 W124 (1994) is a luxury sedan highly regarded for its powerful six-cylinder engine and excellent performance. It offers a smooth and refined ride, being one of the most desirable models of the W124 series. Acceleration is impressive for the time, while the 5-speed automatic transmission provides smooth shifts and comfort. Build quality is high, ensuring reliability, although the 5-speed automatic transmission (722.5) was known to have reliability and longevity issues compared to the 4-speed version, as the extra gears were a "second thought" and had electrical issues. Post-facelift models (like this one) can also have some rust and wiring issues. This model is a true classic, still appreciated today for its combination of power, luxury and comfort, although the 5-speed transmission can be a weak point for maintenance.
