"Spotlight" is a new section at Guitigefilmpjes, aimed at making a short "pro-con" review combined with pictures and videos of cars that have been on the market for several years. Because the pictures and videos have been made several years ago, the quality may not be up to the modern standards. Still, Guitigefilmpjes would like to look back on these cars and share this with you.
In 2002 Mercedes Benz introduced a new E-class, called the W211. During the first model years, this car has been plagued by many technical problems, but they had been resolved by the time a facelift was introduced in 2006. This particular car was one of the first facelift models delivered.
