  • We took the good old diesel up to Yosemite National park and what better opportunity to measure the highway fuel economy, than this? I'm very happy with the Results.

    I have that car and on long trips it does 37 to 39MPG. I have the W211 with 6cy diesel and better gearing and it gets 42 sometimes. Best cars ever.

    I daily drive 2014 E250 Bluetec and get 48-50mpg on highways. An absolute joy.

    I also have an E class diesel (as you can see on my channel) it is a W212 200 CDI MY 2010, on long trips the consumption are about 47 mpg if I drive 70-80 mph.
    If I drive 90 mph it goes up a bit, but not so much, around 39/40 mpg.

      2010 CDI are good on gas but notorious for being unreliable. Early cam shaft failure also V6 not as cool and reliable as a straight 6 engine.

    I get the same on my 1996 e300d , n I have 325K on my odometer. I experience best gas mileage when I put on better quality tires n also right after an alignment. A tune up helps but with great factory recommended tires n alignment you cut thru the air n you keep rolling on by just tapping on the gas pedal 🤠
    These diesels were made for economy.

    I have a 1980 240d manual. Love it for old school tech. Slow. - I always wanted one of these w210 cars. I’d like to avoid any kind of gadgets and electronic issues. I’m not on to Mercedes diesels for the glam. I like the era of cars that were mechanically superior to other cars. Are there any crazy things on this car that would cost a fortune to repair? Computers? Sensors? Transmissions? Air ride junk? Rust? Thanks

    • @CarGhost
      @CarGhost  Před rokem +1

      I don't have any rust on mine, since it is a California car, but there are a bunch of electronic things, that could cost some money if they fail. Btw, no air ride on the w210 cars. Just the wagon (s210) has air ride in the back.
