PaulTan.org have published their review of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class W212. 'The new E-Class is a big car, and appears obviously larger than its predecessor. Its length, width and height of 4868mm/1854mm/1471mm eclipses that of the E60 5-Series, itself not petite. The BMW's wheelbase, at 2888mm, is slightly longer than the Merc's 2874mm though, but that doesn't mean its cabin is a better lounge, more the other way around. Open the W212's doors, and you'll find a cabin that's warm and inviting, perhaps the best feature of this E. Compared to the technical feel of the A6, the Camry feel of the GS and the sombre, business-like ambience of the E60, the Mercedes cabin feels like home, and a major reason are the colour schemes.'
