[QUOTE="F10 CREW, post: 726909, member: 43055"] With Insurance, I am guessing above 350k. I have no regrets with my F10 520d. When I buy a car, I use the following system in the following order: First ... I must like the dashboard as that's what I am going to see every time I drive the car. (520d F10 LCi has the digital dashboard with 4 designs...yes 4 design) Second ... I must like the exterior (520d to me looks more in proportion as an executive sedan compared to the E300) Third ... The engine (520d is a PROVEN diesel engine as supported with all diesel users here whereas the E300 just re-started with the diesel after the problematic E270 CDI) Fourth ... The handling (520d has always have the edge over the Mercs in driving dynamics) Fifth ... the back seat space as I have to carry my kids and a domestic helper. (this the E300 is better) 4/5 made me choose the 520d plus I did not want to wait so long for the E300. I also had a good offer for my 520d and I doubt I am going to get a good offer on the E300. The other factor was when I was in Stuttgart, I saw the E300 Blue Tec which was running on six cylinders whereas here we are getting a 4 cylinder. Also, worried the price of changing the battery for the hybrid once its due! Choose your car wisely my friends! In the meantime, no regrets on getting the 520d. Cheers! Yours faithfully......
