Thinking of a E300 Hybrid

[allanb]

Due to company car tax BIK rates, and the fact that the new E Class has a 300 hybrid available, i'm thinking of taking the plunge.

Has anyone taken ownership of a new E Class Hybrid yet?

If so, any thoughts?

Cheers

P.S. it would be my first Mercedes after Driving Audi's for the last 10 years.

We have the pre-facelift model.

Now it's summer, it does silently pull away from cold in the mornings.

Well I was dead set on getting a Hybrid Estate until Saturday, when the Brochure for the CAB/Coupe appeared on the Mercedes Website. E250CDI now down to 130Co2, My current model S212 250CDI is 163Co2! Now thinking of a Cabriolet instead.(I only need a Estate functionality occasionally) and have another Vehicle that will perform this role admirably.

E250CDI Cab AMG Sport now looking very much like an option instead! would have looked at the Sport Plus but the 'plastic' Leather in my current car is awful

No. I have decided on an E300 Hybrid AMG Sport Estate with a Pan roof. Just need to decide on exterior colour and interior leather colour combination. I have Tenorite Grey with the 'Plastic' AMG Sport interior on my current S212. If they did the Bengal Red as an option would probably go for that with Tenorite, however they don't on the S212. So now looking at Ob Black with either Silk Beige or Porcelain.
Anyone got either of these combinations?
