Mercedes-Benz E-Class, 2006, Vaasa

Looking for a car that takes life in its stride? Up for auction is a true road‑eater and a Finnish favourite – the stylish W211‑bodied E‑Class. This example is fitted with the rock‑solid OM646 diesel engine, which is reputedly only just into its running‑in phase (honest 453,879 km on the odometer).

This car is no revolving trophy. It has had only 3 owners from new, and its previous satisfied owner ran it loyally for over 8 years. It has come straight from daily use, so this is not a restoration project for a car that’s been left to rot in the yard!

Top specification and comfort (Avantgarde):

• Teallite Blue metallic paint: A stylish bluish metallic sheen that stands out from the grey crowd.

• Avantgarde package & black bird's‑eye maple: The interior has a proper executive atmosphere.

• Bi‑Xenon headlights: You can see comfortably at night without guessing where the road goes.

• Automatic gearbox (5‑speed): Still changes smoothly and reliably, as a Mercedes should.

• Seat heaters & automatic climate control: Keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer.

In the name of honesty (small 'character traits'):

We’re not selling a new car, so here are the things that make this example unique:

• Signs of age: There is some light surface rust on the wheel arches and lower door edges, typical for Mercedes of this age. Overall the car is very tidy for its age and mileage. You can still turn up at your mother‑in‑law’s driveway with pride.

• The computer has its own mind: The dash shows the brake‑pad warning light. The pads were replaced with brand new parts at the time, but the computer wasn’t reset (not acknowledged). The light remains lit purely out of solidarity with the old pads.

• Long inspection period: The next inspection is not due until between 8 April 2026 – 19 April 2027, so you have plenty of time to use it!

Why bid on this? This gives you a reliable, spacious and comfortable daily driver that will serve for a long time. Reinforced chassis (Reinforcement package) and a beefier alternator ensure this car is built to last.

The car will be sold to the highest bidder – seize the opportunity and bid for a piece of German engineering!
