Product Overview

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate S211 is an executive station wagon in production from 2003 to 2006, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of V6, V8, inline-4, inline-5, and inline-6 engines that displaced 1.8 to 5.4 liters.
Compared to the S210, the S211 is based on the much more elegant W211 E-Class sedan. Further, some more powerful engines were introduced, notably the legendary M113K 5.4L supercharged V8 found in the E55 AMG. The same 5-speed 5G-Tronic transmission was kept.
Other engines have all proven to be rather durable, too. Mercedes also addressed the body corrosion problem for this generation.
