@joaquinveyron5 Well, at least that is a better situation than other countries. For example, taxicabs in Costa Rica are red, and when asked, they don´t know whose decision was it to choose such a nice color for taxicabs. So if anyone has a red car, it is not unusual to see people signaling for them to stop, thinking even the sportiest red cars to be taxis, lol...
Top Gear is only entertaining because it's farcical. When you drive a C63 AMG, the Black mountains don't warp and melt or quake or whatever.
In actual fact, a old VW Polo would probably give more drama because of the bumpy ride! The only difference would be the engine noises, but Top Gear just act as a 2nd PR associate.
Fifth Gear is simply awesome simply because its real. What you see is definitely what you will get. They even don't test the top trim level of some models.
I will stay wit my 1982 Mercedes 240D over either of these cars, its got over 350K miles and runs like new. sorry they are both ugly and will never last.
Jesus is he the worst presenter TV has to offer? Surely Channel5 could have picked someone less annoying. Thinks he's being entertaining when in fact he's just plain irritating, doesn't test the cars properly (how about taking it out for a DRIVE), even his demeanor and appearance would aggravate.
Seems completely ok to me you're the one whos freaking out over someone absolutely ordinary. And he did mention that the BMW5 was the better drive for him, how does him actually being filmed driving the car make it any better for you?? Driving experiences vary, ultimately You would have to test drive it.
He was informative, and that's his job, and he did it pretty well, thank goodness you weren't doing the review! You'd probably be as annoying as Clarkson.
Being that I'm an auto tech,Benz is the better car.Bimz are nice but they have loud exhaust for no reason and they squeak earlier than a Benz ever would and their drying is awful not that Benz is much better.plus AMG will always beat any M Series never mind a Brabus which have over 750hp
And what a pointless test, he cant argue for a single thing of his conclusions. Why the hell is he running and stretching like a dog to test the cars´ comfort? They have completely lost it. Moron,
I think the styling of the front of the new E-Class is very impressive. I'd say it's the best looking car of their current range and much better looking than the previous E-Class.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The reality is that a Mercedes is not anymore comfortable than any mid-price American or even Japanese car. Indeed, Mercedes are great cars but as far as comfort goes, they have never meant anything special or too different from a BMW.
By the way, what was all that "flashy banker" nonsense. I could understand that, in a nation where people are dying of hunger but in England? Believe me brits, if you now recent a car I could not give a lesser shit, socialist pussies.
Just traded in my BMW X5.8 a very fast car for E-550 sport, was concern about the speed first, but the E-550 is certainly has the speed and the handling of just about any car in this price range and MORE.., the sport seats and the larger engine is what you want the rest is dust on the road ... have fun
Got a black 2010 E350. The thing is built like a vault. You can option these like S Classes for those that don't need somthing that big (or expensive). Love this car.
I think its more than adequate really. Its definitely not as fast as an Audi A6 3.0T or BW 535i but it is faster than the 528 and A6 3.2. Of course you could get the E550 and that's supposed to be the fastest in its class.
@yourbestfriend6492 new E class looks really special, look at the old E class looks so retarded compared to the new. Lucky 21st century Businessmen lol.
@yourbestfriend6492 Have you had any problems with the car since you got it? In the early 2000's, almost all Mercedes were unreliable, especially the C class and ML class. Mercedes insists that their quality has improved, but I'm curious to know if your car demonstrates that.
@marshknute There was a recall that mine suffered from a few months ago. The car didn't recognize the remote at all but the dealer took it in and took care of it without charge. It was annoying, but other than that there hasn't been anything wrong with it.
@yourbestfriend6492 you made a very good choice.... please i am trying to trade my lexus should i get the e550 or is the 350 enough for day to day driving...my lexus is a v8 so i might just want to stick with the v8 engine when i get the benz...
the front and side view of the e class is ok but the rear view is unacceptably boring, it resembles the new nissan maxima a bit, iv never liked the styling of the previous e class and this e class isnt much better in my oppinion, many people think that the 5 series is too revolutionary, but i like it like that, you dont have to be over 60 to drive one. the e class is still an old persons car.
Mercedes E Class cars have true understated elegance. Also it is extremely comfortable . That is why people want it as a plush Taxi. Nothing wrong with that. Chris Bangle's BMW 5 series design is fabulously beautiful and exciting to look at. Bangle has now left BMW unfortunately. The new 5 series saloon will be interesting when it appears. As a business car the E Class would be better. I saw a new black E Class and they do look nice being driven on the road normally.
I am a big fan of the traditional car reviews done on Fifth Gear. The one on the C6 Citroen with the shooting of the tyres and General de Gaulle, the new C5 Citroen, The IS 220D Lexus and the comic one on James Bond's blue Mondeo. i also really loved when Tiff Needle tested the M5 BMW in France. He is a fantastic driver !!!!
I like fifth gear...only because they have different angles on the cars I like,haha. Tif is at least a good driver, this guy is just plain annoying, and what the fuck is he tryin to pull off? That style went out...about a year ago,ha.
Top gear is killer, always entertaining, sure its al ot of personal opinion, but hell its funny and good entertainment, unlike 5th gear...
