PHML is dead on

Average E Class Owner should be around no younger than 40s though lol It's, however, good to see younger E Class Owners like me getting more populated

You're in good company my friend! I'm in the same boat, although I had just turned 50 before I got mine last year.

Nice! My first car was a '79 Pontiac Sunbird. Had been totaled and refurbished before I bought it. Came with an AM/FM radio and one speaker. (How many speakers does the HK system have?) I put in a pair of speakers in the back and a new Pioneer radio with a cassette deck. 2.5 L 4 cylinder with maybe 100 HP. Not quite in the same class as the E's!

I remember that car… I friend of mine used to have the Mercury equivalent I think it was called the Monarch. The one thing I will always remember about it was the way it used to handle. Or should I say float, or lean, or bounce down the road!


If you hit a bump on the highway the whole car felt like it was about to jump/float out of its lane and into the next one. Not a good feeling…

36, 2010 E350, purchased and paid off.

Not knocking leasers though. Seeing as how I get that new car itch every 2-3 years, I'm considering leasing my next vehicle...and keeping the E of course.

Oh, yes. I remember those. Back then we all thought the rectangle headlights were a big step up in style from the round headlights.

My first Used E was when I was 26. My first two new E's (W212's) were when I was 28 & 29. Now that I'm an old man officially in my 30's I got a BMW.

Maybe the average E owner overall is over 40, but it's interesting that there is an equal number of 20, 30, 40 and 50 somethings represented on MBWorld. Results as of this post:

Under 30 = 16
31-40 = 16
41-50 = 16
51+ = 15

Maybe the younger owners are more likely to be on this forum, thus skewing the results.

K-A - you got the Benzes and the BMW in the wrong order!

Anyway, I predict you'll be back in the Benz fold for your next vehicle.

Actually statistics can get confusing. Which is more significant? The average age or the mean age?
