Any decent instagram sites for the W212?

I've been looking at instagram for w212 content and any pages I can find appear to be either abandoned or unrelated to the w212. I've tried various searches including MB, Benz, Mercedes, E350, E550 W212 and variations of those. There are feeds out there for numerous other cars I'm interested in.

Maybe include the C207 and A207
If nothing comes up, I may start one if anyone else is interested

What the hell - I went ahead and started one.

I loaded just a couple images I found online. Tag your instagram pics of w212 (or even C207 or A207 will get a few postings) and I'll put em up and see if this takes off. I'll probably only add to the account every few days or maybe even once a week.

Well it's coming along nicely. 111 followers so far. If any one has pics they want me to include there, you can put them in this thread and I'll add them later. I'm trying to just post 1 or two a day instead of doing 6 or 8 pictures once a week like I have been.
I'm also trying to keep it limited to E Class Sedans, Wagons, Coupes and Convertibles W212, s212, C207 and A207 models. No one wants to see my yard, or what I had for dinner

Agree that this is coming along nicely. However, I think to improve it even further, you could probably share more post from the members itself rather than the ones from adverts, etc. I believe by doing so, followers can enjoy what the rest of the members have done on their rides.

Thanks for the feedback. I've had very few pictures sent to me so I'm forced to seek out photos to use. I've pulled quite a few from the 'official picture thread' at the top of the w212 section but there aren't that many great pictures there. But I'll try to shift more toward owner photos and see how it goes.
Anything that is posted as a thumbnail pick remains a small pic on my iPhone and is framed with the 'next' button. Since instagram won't allow direct uploads from non mobile devices, the only way I see around that is to save images to my laptop then send them to my mobile device to post - which is way more effort than I want to get into for something I just kinda volunteered to do once in awhile. So I'll only load pics that are full size (linked to wherever they are housed) so I can keep at my day job.

Appreciate the time and effort that you put in to keep the page running. Not too sure whether you are aware of this but since you are on the iOS platform, you could download an app off the app store called "Repost." Basically what it does is that, you can share pics of the people you follow in a few simple steps. That way, once members upload pics of their cars, you could easily share them. Cheers buddy!

The number of subscribers continues to climb slowly. I would like to see it hit 1000 before year end so let me know if you have any ideas to get any more hits. We are in the low 200's now

Shameless self promotional bump since we haven't added a new follower in 2 days. Trying to get to 750 by year end and make this the biggest, best (only) E class w212 instagram site around.

Shameless bump for the instagram site EClass_w212.
