I kept mine for quite a while, but eventually sent them on to recycling. They were fairly informative for newer M-B owners, but appeared focused mainly on older, wealthy owners of older M-B's. I have a lot of old collector car and train related magazines. Take up a lot of space, but nobody wants them.

I was at an appointment the other day in a waiting room, saw a man reading a BOOK and had to compliment him for doing so; I also had a book.....((don't have a cell/smart phone)) to read while I waited Not very often you see someone reading a book and not plugged into an electric device.....hence the recognition. I get National Geographic in the mail too

How common is the 125th Anniversary edition W212 E Class?
To date I have only ever seen mine and one other. This was from back in 2011 to commemorate the first car ever, invented by Karl Benz, the Benz Motorwagen (1886). It's only on W212 pre-facelift E Classes, they had a bunch with upgraded sports and entertainment options and Designo interiors. They also came with the upgraded NTG 4.5 nav that only the facelifted W212's got (before the facelift came along), and with special 125th Anniversary badging. Anyone else seen them?
It was a good deal at the time with a whole bunch of upgrades and a Designo interior all packaged together under a discount price to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the first car ever, that happens to be a Benz.

Just for the record, my '12 and '13 have NTG 4.5, but it was special for 2011and it is a very nice car. My '12 has a Blue Efficiency logo in the same fender position.

2010 - 2012 W212 is still one of the best looking E-Class models of all time a decade later.
Congrats to the anniversary edition owners here.

I was busking out front of my favorite pub tonight and saw a W212 go by with the 'hockey' stick LEDs and thought 'how cool'. Pretty sure it was a 350 though
