Great news,
So was it a Classic, Elegance or Avantgarde?

I've seen those wheels on other pictures, so if we know the model, we can start joining the dots.

Good spotting.

John

Facelite is bad!

I hate the tail lamp which is simple no taste at all. The current W211 is already too perfect. The only improvement I believe is to further enhance its overall length by half feet.

New Picture

New picture found on German MB forum. I do not think this has been posted here.

They mention the same engine changes as here.



Is it me or is this front bumper similar to Audi?

Definitely not. In my opinion the Audi grille is in your face, the styling of the one you have kindly posted is simply not to my taste.

Thanks for the link,
John

Both this and the facelifted SL has 'Opel' written all over it in my opinion. The only good change I can think of is the 3rd brakelight that finally doesn't look like it has a missing LED anymore... The front end looks so extremely cluttered now, and the taillights.... *sigh*....

How the hell you see an Opel in the E-Class and especially the SL is beyond me.
