An estate variant of the fourth-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class, the 2016 example is a 5-door wagon sought-after by enthusiasts for its versatility and unique styling. Finished in Steel Grey Metallic over Crystal Grey and Black Nappa leather upholstery, it features the AMG Styling Package, 18” AMG twin 5-spoke wheels, Premium package, Lighting Package, a panoramic sunroof, the Lane Tracking Package, Keyless Go Package, illuminated door sills, and much more. Showing approximately 123k miles on the odometer, this example is now being offered for auction by its seller out of New York.
This Wagon is finished in Steel Grey Metallic and features the optional AMG Styling Package, which includes a front spoiler and side skirts. Additional exterior details include a two-bar front grille , dual exhaust outlets, dynamic LED headlamps, silver roof rails, power side mirrors with integrated turn signals, a rear window wiper, and 18” AMG twin 5-spoke alloy wheels. The seller notes that the exterior is in excellent condition, significantly above average for the vehicle’s mileage, with approximately 40% tread life remaining on the tires. The seller affirms that no body panels have ever been replaced, although the rear bumper was refinished, and some areas of paintwork are indicated by paint meter readings. Window tint has also been applied, and detailed images are available in the gallery, along with a CARFAX report showing minor damage in 2017.
The cabin is trimmed in Crystal Grey and Black Nappa leather upholstery, complemented with Black Ash Wood trim and a Black roof liner. Optional equipment includes ventilated front Multicontour seats, an Active driver’s seat, a heated steering wheel, and the Keyless Go, Lighting, Premium, and Lane Tracking packages. Additionally, a rearview camera Parktronic with Active Parking Assist, and illuminated door sills were opted for. The cargo area features the E-class signature rear-facing bench seat that folds flat into the floor for increased storage capacity. Dual front-zone automatic air conditioning is also equipped as standard.
Power comes from a 3.5L V6 engine producing over 300 HP. All four wheels are driven by way of Mercedes’ 4Matic all-wheel-drive system paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission. Other features include dual stainless steel exhaust pipes, a rear auto-leveling suspension, power-assist & speed-sensing steering, and front & rear anti-roll bars. The CARFAX report shows a total of 24 service history entries.
This sale will include a clean title and owner’s manuals.
The seller would like you to know: “Well-optioned and well-cared for late model 212 E-Class wagons are extremely difficult to find. This is a stellar example that drives like new (not exaggerating). It is strongly encouraged to come see/drive this prior to bidding as you will be amazed at how smooth and tight this example is. Safe to say that you can bid with total confidence.”

@nlust88 my pleasure. For what it's worth, if I see something that needs fixing I go for it, high standards here. This was a car that should have been on the market many months ago, just kept it around because it is so nice and one of those "rule breakers" that is far nicer than the miles displayed on the odometer. Good luck!

@11JM Fair response. Thank you.
@nlust88 I have one key with the vehicle. The rear suspension is functioning as it should, since I don't have any record of it being replaced, speculating would be unfair to the bidders as I want to represent the car honestly. This car was clearly well-maintained and whoever gets it is getting a great example. As with any older car, it is wise to budget for future maintenance/repairs as needed. With that being said these are known to be extremely reliable and since the new ones are much more computerized and now have a Turbo this is one of the last that can be driven until the wheels come off! Good luck if bidding.
Hi, @11JM.
How many keys are included?
I know I asked about the suspension earlier but are you able to visually tell if the air springs are original or have been replaced at some point?
@Tartan43 I am no mechanic, but I am fairly certain those are the lines that run to the rear auto leveling suspension (factory)
@WReiter slight crack on plastic shield. This is nothing significant
@11JM what are those white cables in pics #162, #163, #164? Also, what is the extend of the damage in pics #161, #162, #163? It looks like the trunk floor is cracked / split. thanks.
@11JM can you please address damage shown in #161?
Available for last 24 ish hours if anyone would like to see the car prior to bidding. This is a good one, don’t miss out!
@WReiter Yes, on photos 170-171. This was a common problem with W212's, along with W204's and several other coupes and midsize models. They didn't galvanize the part, and they acknowledged this error. Just to be clear, this issue would not stop me from getting this S212, knowing Mercedes will (and in my case they did) cover this $6K repair.
@off76 in what photos do you see the perforation? 170-171?
Also, can seller please address damage shown in #161? Thanks!
I have a 2012 S212. I see perforation in the rear subframe, Mercedes has warrantied this item for 20yrs/unlimited miles. For the next lucky owner get it taken care off!
@nlust88 hi. The carfax is extensive, however it is all I have available. The car is in top tier condition and everything is currently functioning with nothing giving any indication of needing repair nor any service or warning lights displayed.
Has the air suspension ever been serviced/replaced? The Carfax didn't give much info on this.
Do all the comfort features like heated/ventilated seats work?
