<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Ich will ja nicht immer nur meckern, daher möchte ich mal ein (kleines) Lob an europäische Länder aussprechen, und zwar betreffend der Registrierung von Autos. Zwar sind die Zulassungsanforderungen in Detailfragen (z.B. Auspufflautstärke) sicherlich ziemlich streng im Vergleich zu manch anderen Ländern (USA, Japan vielleicht?). Aber immerhin kann man in Europa problemlos sowohl Autos mit Links-, als auch Rechtslenkung zulassen.</p>
<p>Hingegen ist die Zulassung linksgelenkter Autos in Australien, Neuseeland und Singapur generell verboten! Es gibt auch Länder, die es andersherum verbieten, wie z.B. die Phillipinen und die Slowakei. Manche Länder benutzen andere, kompliziertere Wege, um die ausländische Konkurrenz auszuschliessen. In den USA gibt es eine Vielzahl von Regelungen, an die Autos vor der Zulassung angepasst werden müssen (unter anderem irgendetwas mit Crash-Tests). Dadurch ist es praktisch unmöglich, europäische oder japanische Autos dort zuzulassen (sofern sie eben nicht vom Hersteller bereits darauf umgestellt wurden).</p>
<p>Da lobe ich mir mal die (noch) verhältnismässig liberale EU.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="As only the French can say it" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e0/AMC_Pacer_1975_French_advertisement.jpg" alt="As only the French can say it" width="233" height="325" />If only the car looked THAT GOOD&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">AMC Pacer. Need I say more?</p>
<div id="attachment_341" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 172px"><a href="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/13-amc-gremlin.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-341  " title="13-amc-gremlin" src="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/13-amc-gremlin.jpg" alt="Do I sense a trend here?" width="162" height="226" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Do I sense a trend here?</p></div>
<p style="text-align:left;">For those of us over the age of 35, the words bring up really bad memories of really bad cars from a really, really bad car maker.  From the late 60&#8217;s on it was just crappy car after crappy car. From the <a title="Oh Man that is one fugly ride" href="http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-1970-1979/1972-AMC-Javelin-red-fa-sy.jpg" target="_blank">Javelin</a>, to the <a title="I would have a dour look if I had to drive that tripe." href="http://www.matadorcoupe.com/AMC/GremlinPromo.jpg" target="_blank">Gremlin</a> (my how appropriately named) through Matador and Hornet, it was the most horrid of line ups.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">And somehow, they stayed in business.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Amongst my gear head buddies, we joked that AMC meant &#8216;Almost Motor Company&#8217;. We liked to say they did not manufacture cars so much as made bodies and adaptor plates. This was due to AMC sourcing drive train and accessory parts from the &#8216;Big 3&#8242; and fitting them together. Thus, when opening the hood, one could be faced with a FOMOCO engine &#38; starter, GM transmission &#38; MOPAR ignition system.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">And somehow, they stayed in business.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Then came 1978. Things were rough. The EPA forced AMC to recall EVERY 1976 model year sold in the US, including Jeeps, due to faulty emissions controls. By this point, even the much vaunted, and horribly overrated by that time, Jeep nameplate was not enough to keep AMC afloat. So, in an act of questionable sanity, the board of AMC agreed to a partnership with Renault.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Well. That will certainly make things better eh? Nothing like good old French engineering and manufacturing to save this old crow.  Just reach into that huge bin of well designed and built Renault cars and parts and pull a rabbit out of the hat. Should be a slam dunk.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em><strong>Breaking News!</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">We have just received word that, in 1978, Renault has <em><strong>NO </strong></em>well engineered and built cars or parts in it&#8217;s lineup. It is currently the French equivalent of AMC!!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Nice!! This is gonna be great. Bring on the <a title="FrancoAmerican Crappieo's" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Alliance" target="_blank">Alliance</a> and the <a title="Cute as hell but what a total POS. And don't even get me started on trying to work on these beasts!!" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_5" target="_blank">LeCar</a> Yahoo!!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Then they gave us the Eagle. Otherwise known as an innovative drive train (AWD) in a Butt Ugly body. Cool!</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 356px"><img title="Kind of on the same track" src="http://imcdb.org/images/072/938.jpg" alt="Kind of on the same track" width="346" height="195" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Kind of on the same track</p></div>
<p>Things got progressively worse until AMC/Jeep was finally swallowed up by Chrysler (who just wanted Jeep) in 1987.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">On to the subject of this issue of auto lunacy.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">One of the oddest rides produced in America after WWII has to be the Pacer. In some ways it was very innovative, it was &#8220;small&#8221; and had a open and airy cabin. The problem was, to create the aforementioned open &#38; airy cabin, Richard Teague seemingly decided a misshapen fish bowl was the best choice. He then chose the front third of a worn out loafer for the profile of the nose. As this came from the man who penned the Matador &#38; Hornet, we will just say he will not be known for his artistic abilities.</p>
<div id="attachment_319" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/amcp-7.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-319" title="What a face..." src="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/amcp-7.jpg" alt="A face only a crusher could love" width="360" height="268" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">A prime candidate for Cash for Clunkers?</p></div>
<p>The beauty seen above was found at our local home repair center which shall remain nameless but you would have to be an idiot not to recognize the colors eh?</p>
<p>So what is one to think of finding one of these in 2009? Does the driver wear bell bottoms? Listen to Donna Summer? And to top it off, it has been well taken care of?</p>
<div id="attachment_323" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 460px"><a href="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/amcp-1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-323" title="AMCP 1" src="http://deleriumtremens.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/amcp-1.jpg" alt="A 'beauty' to behold?" width="450" height="234" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">A &#39;beauty&#39; to behold?</p></div>
<p>I have to say, it is really not that much uglier than anything ever created by Lexus. It kind of has a <a title="Not so much about Maine anymore" href="http://www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?categoryId=18999&#38;storeId=1&#38;catalogId=1&#38;langId=-1&#38;from=SR&#38;feat=sr" target="_blank">Bean&#8217;s Slipper</a> look to it. If not quite so comfortable.</p>
<p>But, how many cars have had such a storied advertising career?</p>
<p>I mean who in the 40 to 60 year old range does not remember Sandwich King? I mean Really..</p>

<description><![CDATA[The Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder returns to the Mitsubishi lineup after a one-year hiatus as a 2009 mod]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://www.newcartestdrive.com/07/07-eclipse-spyder-hero.jpg" alt="2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder" hspace="0" vspace="0" /></p>
<p>The Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder returns to the Mitsubishi lineup after a one-year hiatus as a 2009 model, with a full-power, convertible top that folds completely into a fully covered, self-closing bin. All with the driver doing nothing more than releasing a couple of latches and pushing a button.</p>
<p>The Spyder comes with a choice of four-cylinder or V6 engines, each available with manual or automatic.</p>
<p>The Spyder offers all the pleasures of open-air motoring with few of the displeasures. The top, especially, is a quality structure. It&#8217;s finished inside, with all the struts, pivots and bows hidden behind sound-deadening fabric. With it up, the interior feels and sounds much like the coupe, although perhaps a little claustrophobic. With it down, the steeply raked windshield pushes most of the air up and over the open cockpit, allowing almost-normal conversation; hats are just as essential for avoiding sunburn as for controlling wind-blown tresses.</p>
<p>Despite weighing about 200 pounds more than the coupe, due to bracing added in the conversion to a convertible, the Spyder gives up only one mile per gallon to the coupe in fuel economy in all but the top-level V6 with automatic, and that drops only two mpg and only in the highway estimate.</p>
<p>In pricing, the &#8216;07 Spyder actually costs less than its predecessor. The base GS model lists at $355 below the &#8216;05, the GT more than $2000 below the top &#8216;05 model, and both with more content.</p>
<p>Measured fun per dollar, the Eclipse Spyder is well worth a look for anyone shopping for a sporty convertible.</p>
<p>Model Lineup</p>
<p>The 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder is a two-door, four-seat roadster based on the latest Eclipse coupe.</p>
<p>The GS ($25,389) comes with a 162-horsepower four-cylinder engine and a choice of five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission ($900). Standard features include cloth upholstery; air conditioning; cruise control; the usual power accessories and fitments; tilt steering column; a premium, Rockford Fosgate, 650-watt stereo with AM/FM/MP3 capability connected to nine speakers and subwoofer; and 17-inch, flat-flanged, five-spoke, alloy wheels wearing all-season tires. The Leather Package ($980) adds leather-surfaced, heated front seats; heated outside mirrors; and a center-top dash display with ambient temperature and compass.</p>
<p>The GT ($28,269) comes with a 260-hp V6 with either a six-speed manual or a five-speed automatic ($900). Standard upgrades on the GT are confined to the center-top dash display, an oversized exhaust tip and a red rocker cover on the engine. A Premium Package ($1730) adds leather-trimmed, heated front seats, automatic climate control, heated mirrors, six-way power driver&#8217;s seat, rubber-nibbed, aluminum pedals, and flat-flanged, 18-inch, seven-spoke, alloy wheels with all-season tires. A wind deflector is also available.</p>
<p>Also offered on both GS and GT are two premium paint colors, Satin Mesei (visualize metallic green) and Sunset Pearlescent ($130), over and above the more traditional red, white, silver and black (blue is slated for late availability). Mitsubishi has signed off on three dealer-installed equipment packages (i.e., installation not included), as well. These are an aero kit, with front corner airdams, sport side sills and rear wake modifier ($1820); an accessory package, with alloy fuel door, wheel locks and floor mats ($179); and an appearance package comprising the aero kit and appearance package ($1999).</p>
<p>Safety features standard on both models include dual-stage front airbags, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags, front seatbelt pre-tensioners and force limiters, child safety seat anchors (LATCH) and antilock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-81" title="Mitsubishi-Endeavor" src="http://qualitymitsubishidenver.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/mitsubishi-endeavor.jpg" alt="Mitsubishi-Endeavor" width="544" height="408" /></p>
<p><strong>Overview </strong></p>
<p>Endeavour was the ship commanded by Captain James Cook, hero of the Seven Years War, when he set off from England in 1768 to scientifically survey New Zealand and Australia.</p>
<p>Mitsubishi&#8217;s Endeavor has easier objectives, but far greater competition from others. The Endeavor is a midsize sport utility that seats five, with generous space in the front and rear seats. The rear seatbacks flip down to reveal a big cargo area with a perfectly flat floor.</p>
<p>In spite of its rugged appearance, Endeavor is built more like a car than a truck. Underway, the Endeavor handles well and offers a nice, smooth ride. Its drive-by-wire throttle provides responsive control, and its 3.8-liter V6 delivers adequate power, though the Endeavor won&#8217;t win many drag races. It&#8217;s available with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, but we much prefer the AWD model.</p>
<p>Barely six years old, the Mitsubishi Endeavor has been moderately facelifted for 2009. ABS with traction control is now standard. The standard towing capacity has been increased to 3500 pounds. And all Endeavor sound systems now include MP3 capability.</p>
<p><strong>Model Lineup </strong></p>
<p>Mitsubishi has simplified the Endeavor lineup for 2009, leaving only two trim levels: LS and Limited. Each is available with front-wheel drive (2WD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). All are powered by a 3.8-liter V6 making 225 horsepower mounted transversely (sideways) and mated to a four-speed automatic transmission with Sportronic manual shifting capability.</p>
<p>The LS 2WD ($26,599) and AWD ($27,999) come with the usual power accessories, plus a 140-watt sound system with single-disc CD player and MP3 playback, new brush-finish 17-inch alloy wheels with mud-and-snow-rated tires, intermittent rear window washer, roof rails, steering wheel controls, remote entry, full-size spare tire, and a remote tailgate release.</p>
<p>A new Road Trip Package for the LS ($2,000) adds a rear-seat DVD entertainment system with wireless headphones and remote, six-disc CD changer, an enhanced color dot-matrix information display (including compass, outside temperature, fuel computer, and maintenance recorder), sport-touch steering wheel, cargo cover, cargo net, and an alarm.</p>
<p>Limited 2WD ($30,799) and AWD ($32,299) add automatic climate control, premium cloth seats with power for the driver&#8217;s seat, 315-watt MP3-capable sound system with six-disc CD changer, power sunroof, the color dot-matrix information display, fog lights, crossbars for the roof rails, the cargo cover and alarm.</p>
<p>Leather upholstery is available with the Leather Plus Package ($1,400) that includes seat heaters and heated outside mirrors. The Family Entertainment Package ($1,200) for the Limited includes the DVD system, wireless headphones and remote control. Mitsubishi Active Skid and Traction Control ($995), an electronic stability control system, is available only on Limited AWD.</p>
<p>Safety features on all 2009 Endeavors include dual-stage frontal airbags and front seat-mounted side-impact airbags, anti-lock brakes (ABS) with electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), traction control, and a tire-pressure monitor. Curtain airbags are not available. Wear your seat belts as they are your first line of defense in an accident.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-73" title="2009 Mitsubishi Galant" src="http://qualitymitsubishidenver.wordpress.com/files/2009/08/2009-mitsubishi-galant.jpg" alt="2009 Mitsubishi Galant" width="550" height="340" /><br />
We could name a number of midsize, import-badge sedans that ride comfortably and quietly, handle responsively, and offer an optional V6 that provides ample power for passing. All feature roomy, nicely appointed cabin space, and all represent good value in the family-car market. Mitsubishi Galant does all that, but offers sharp styling, the kind that turns heads in traffic. Not everyone will like what they see, but none of them will accuse the Galant of being a wallflower. The current-generation Galant was launched as an all-new model for 2004, and Mitsubishi has improved and refined it every year since then. New for 2009: The 2009 Mitsubishi Galant brings a freshened look outside, improved materials inside, and revised suspension settings designed to provide greater comfort and a more engaging driving experience. The 2009 Galant GTS gets a new five-speed automatic transmission. Also new for 2009 is a high-performance model called the Ralliart, with more horsepower, tighter handling, and sporty styling. Ralliart is Mitsubishi&#8217;s motorsports arm and has been a dominant force in the World Rally Championship, which includes the Monte Carlo and other famous events, and cross country endurance raids, such as the Paris-Dakar Rally. Mitsubishi hopes the Galant Ralliart will challenge the Acura TSX and TL, as well as the MazdaSpeed6. The Galant Ralliart seems a long way from the Galant VR4 rally cars so successful in the early 1990s, but so what? The more we drove the 2009 Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart, the more we liked it. It struck us as a comfortable, big midsize sedan with some sports appeal. It isn&#8217;t as agile as a MazdaSpeed6, but it&#8217;s roomier and more comfortable. It certainly isn&#8217;t as upscale or refined as an Acura, but it costs less. It&#8217;s an easy car to live with that does not give up comfort or convenience for its added performance. At times, it reminded us of a Chevy Monte Carlo (yes, we know it&#8217;s a two-door) and it seems nicer than a Pontiac G6. In any case, the Galant Ralliart was an enjoyable car that never annoyed us. And we&#8217;re easily annoyed. Galant has achieved across-the-board five-star ratings in the federal government&#8217;s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) offset-frontal and side-impact crash tests. The insurance industry&#8217;s Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awarded Galant its highest ranking (&#8220;Good overall&#8221;) in its frontal-offset and side-impact crash tests. Model Lineup The 2009 Mitsubishi Galant comes in four trim levels, but they are not the same four as last year. The upper-middle LS has been discontinued, the GTS slightly demoted, and the new Ralliart added at the top of the range. Galant DE ($19,899) and ES ($20,999) are powered by a 160-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and come standard with a four-speed automatic transmission. Mitsubishi&#8217;s Sportronic system, which allows a semi-manual shifting when desired, is now standard on all Galants. The DE comes with air conditioning; height-adjustable driver&#8217;s seat; height-adjustable steering wheel; power windows, mirrors and door locks with remote keyless entry; 140-watt, four-speaker AM/FM/CD stereo; rear-seat heater ducts; carpeted floor mats; and an engine immobilizer. Standard tires are P215/60R16 all-season radials on steel wheels. ES adds ABS with EBD, six-speaker stereo with MP3 playback, cruise control, and a more deluxe cloth interior with a driver&#8217;s seatback pocket and sun visor extenders. Appearance upgrades include color-keyed exterior door handles, titanium interior accents, and ice-blue LED illumination for climate and stereo controls. ES options include the Sport Package ($1,000) with 16-inch alloy wheels, dark-bezel halogen headlamps, crystal ellipsoid rear lamps, a color-keyed rear spoiler, and the Ralliart&#8217;s Rockford Acoustic Design audio with Sirius satellite radio. The ES Premium Package ($2,000) adds leather seating surfaces, faux leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, power glass sunroof, auto-dimming rear view mirror with Homelink, and additional minor goodies. GTS ($24,999) features a 230-hp, 3.8-liter V6 and a five-speed automatic transmission with a Sportronic feature. GTS adds leather seating, faux leather and audio controls on the steering wheel, heated front seats with eight-way power for the driver, dark-bezel headlamps, fog lamps, and a tire-pressure monitor. The instrument panel features white-faced gauges and woodgrain accents. Front brakes are larger, while wheels and tires upgrade to 215/55R17s on 17-inch rims. GTS options include the Sun and Sound package ($1,000), which combines the power glass sunroof and Rockford Acoustic Design audio with an auto-dimming rearview mirror, Homelink transmitter, a security alarm, and more. Ralliart ($26,999) is powered by a 258-hp, 3.8-liter V6, with a sports suspension, upgraded brakes, and larger wheels and tires. It comes with the five-speed Sportronic automatic. Ralliart has a unique look inside and out. Upholstery is perforated leather, and the pedals are aluminum. All of the GTS luxuries are standard, plus automatic climate control, a power glass sunroof, auto-dimming rearview mirror with Homelink, and a unique Rockford Acoustic Design audio system that includes the hardware for Sirius satellite radio plus a six-month subscription. Optional on Ralliart is a DVD navigation system with a seven-inch touch screen ($1,850). Safety features include dual-stage front airbags, side curtain air bags, and front seat-mounted side-impact air bags, and four-wheel disc brakes. All-wheel drive is not available. Anti-lock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution start with the ES model. A tire-pressure monitor comes on GTS and Ralliart models.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>We schrijven 1977. Mercedes-Benz waagt zich aan zijn eerste ‘T-Modell’, de ultieme voorvader van de E-Klasse Break. Tijdens de 33 jaren die zouden volgen, wisten de Duitsers er meer dan 1 miljoen exemplaren van te slijten. Vanaf dit jaar is het aan de vijfde generatie om de strijd aan te binden in dit inmiddels felbevochten segment. Maar de nieuwe E is goed gewapend.</strong></p>
<p>Een zogeheten ‘Premium Lifestyle Combi’, dat is waar de E-Klasse Break volgens Mercedes-Benz voor staat. Vrij vertaald: de luxe en rij-eigenschappen van de E-Klasse berline met de laadcapaciteiten van een lastezel. In het verleden leek Mercedes-Benz wonderwel te slagen in dat opzet, waardoor de E-Klasse break al jaren geldt als één van de referenties in zijn segment. Toch lieten de Duitsers op esthetisch vlak wel eens een steekje vallen. Het praktische primeerde, en dus was de achtersteven van de voorgaande E-Klasse breaks nimmer een toonbeeld van elegantie. Toen we de vijfde generatie voor het eerst in levende lijve te zien kregen, bleek de Premium Lifestyle Combi ook een knappe kont toebedeeld. Of de ingenieurs dat ook wisten te verzoenen met de functionaliteit die al 33 jaar het hoge woord voert in de E Break, moest later blijken.</p>
<p>Wie de koffer van de nieuwe E openzwaait, krijgt al snel in de smiezen dat de Duitsers allesbehalve beknibbeld hebben op de beschikbare laadruimte. En wie de kelk tot op de bodem ledigt (of in dit geval, vult), kan maar liefst 1.950 liter aan laadruimte volstouwen. Ter vergelijking: de twee andere breaks van de Heilige Drievuldigheid, de Audi A6 Avant en de BMW 5 Touring, houden het respectievelijk bij 1.660 en 1.650 liter voor bekeken. Maar Mercedes scoort niet alleen op vlak van kwantiteit.  </p>
<p><strong>Le grand chic</strong></p>
<p>De E-Klasse blijft in de eerste plaats een paleis op wielen. Het interieur getuigt van smaak en stijl, en is eerder tijdloos van inborst. Vooral de Avantgarde, met knappe lederen zetels en inlegstukken in geborsteld aluminium, gooit hoge ogen. Al mogen we van een merk als Mercedes niets anders verwachten, toch? Bovendien heeft Stuttgart een zelden gezien arsenaal aan veiligheidssnufjes uit de kast gehaald om de E-Klasse Break op het rechte pad te houden. We noteerden negen standaard airbags en een Attention Assist die indommelende chauffeurs herkent en wakkerschudt. Op de optielijst vinden we ook nog het Pre-Safe systeem dat de gordels aanspant wanneer een ongeval onafwendbaar blijkt, en de Distronic Plus-afstandssensor. Wie deze halve electronicawinkel ook daadwerkelijk in zijn E-Klasse wil installeren, moet daarvoor echter diep in de buidel tasten. Jep, dit is een Mercedes.</p>
<p><strong>Een kwestie van comfort</strong></p>
<p>Gelukkig vertaalt zich dat ook op de baan. Dankzij de standaard automatische niveauregeling achteraan, die zich aanpast aan de belading, blijft het comfort in de E-Klasse onder alle omstandigheden gevrijwaard. De actieve schokdemping met luchtvering zorgt ervoor dat dwarsrichels, verkeersdrempels en zwaar gehavende asfaltstroken in stijl verteerd worden. Beter nog, in het interieur heb je het nauwelijks gemerkt. En daarmee zijn we bij de allergrootste troef van de Mercedes E-Klasse aanbeland: op vlak van comfort hoeft de E-Klasse Break – beladen of niet – niet terug te deinzen voor eender welke Franse referentie. Maar in tegenstelling tot vele van zijn Franse concurrenten, weet de Mercedes er nog een uitgesproken dynamiek aan te koppelen.</p>
<p>Het moet gezegd dat de Duitsers wel een aantal performante motoren in de rekken hebben liggen om zelfs een uit de kluiten gewassen E-Klasse Break vlot vooruit te branden. De bloedmooie AMG-variant met de unaniem geroemde 6,3 V8-motor en zijn 525 paarden lijkt ons echter iets te hoog gegrepen. Het voor de fleetmarkt interessante scala begint bij de eerder bescheiden 200 CDI met 136 pk. Iets hogerop op de motorenladder vinden we dan de E 220 CDI en de E 250 CDI met respectievelijk 163 en 204 paarden. Tot slot is er ook de 3 liter-V6 dieselmotor met 231 pk, de E 350 CDI. Voor benzinerijders is er de nieuwe E 200 CGI met 184 pk, die een normverbruik van 7,7 liter/100 km laat optekenen. Toen we de E 200 en E 220 CDI aan de tand voelden in het heuvelachtige Wiesbaden, bleven we steken op verbruikscijfers tussen 6,7 en 7,1 liter/100 km. Functionaliteit en dynamiek door één en dezelfde deur dus. En als je toch mag kiezen, neem dan de deur links vooraan.</p>
