Mercedes e320 CDI and Bluetec

Thinking about an 05/06 CDI or an 07/08 Bluetec.

I know the older is an inline six and the other is a v6. Anything to really look for on these cars? Do they all have the expensive air suspension?

I do like the diesels, but never had a Mercedes.

Thanks

Everything on MBZ is expensive and a baffling ordeal.

Thanks, I was thinking it might be an easier car to service than a VW.
What the heck was I thinking.

I had an e350, really enjoyed it. MB was still coming out of the early 2000 dark ages with these cars at that point. There was an upgrade to the electronics in 07 that addresses some of the issues.

Mine was a 2006. The GPS went out twice in one year!
