**A Closer Look at the Mercedes E-Class Estate**

The Mercedes E-Class Estate is a brilliant long-distance cruiser that offers a comfortable and relaxing driving experience. One of its standout features is its soundproofing, which provides an impressive level of isolation from the outside world. This makes it an ideal choice for those who value peace and quiet while on the move. The car's interior is also noteworthy, with a spacious back window that doesn't create too many blind spots. When you need to get a better view, simply clicking up the rear window will allow you to see in all directions.

In terms of visibility, the E-Class Estate's large size can make it difficult to maneuver in tight spaces. However, its reasonable-sized back window and lack of excessive blind spots make it easier to navigate narrow streets. The car also features a 360-degree passenger view video, which gives you a better idea of what to expect from your driving experience.

**A Perfect Long-Distance Cruiser**

The E-Class Estate is perfect for long-distance cruising, thanks to its comfortable suspension and responsive yet smooth 7-speed automatic gearbox. When you floor it, the car accelerates effortlessly, making it an enjoyable drive on the motorway. The engine, a 2-liter diesel, provides plenty of power without being too thirsty. With its impressive fuel economy, this car is ideal for road trips.

One interesting feature of the E-Class Estate is its handling. When compared to the saloon version, the estate feels more responsive and stable, thanks to additional bracing that has been fitted to improve its performance. This makes it a great choice for those who want a practical luxury estate car with impressive handling capabilities.

**Not-So-Pleasing Features**

Despite its many strengths, there are some features that might be considered annoying by some drivers. One of these is the fake exhaust outlets, which seem like they belong on a toy robot rather than a production car. Another issue is the limited availability of petrol engines in certain trim levels, particularly in the UK market.

Additionally, those who want real leather seats will have to upgrade to the higher-end models. However, this comes at a cost, and some might find it frustrating that the lower-spec models lack the premium feel of genuine leather. Another minor annoyance is the inability to fit the load cover into the boot space without taking it out separately.

**Cool Features Galore**

On the other hand, the E-Class Estate has plenty of cool features that make up for these minor annoyances. One standout feature is the elongated bracket on the seatbacks, which can be extended and then retracted to increase or decrease the height of the rear seats. This provides more flexibility when it comes to loading and unloading cargo.

The car also features a high-definition reversing camera system that uses advanced sensors to provide a clear view of the surroundings behind the vehicle. When you activate this feature, the camera's field of view is extended to give you an even better view of what's behind the car.

**Practicality at Its Best**

One of the E-Class Estate's most impressive features is its practicality. With a boot capacity of 745 kilograms, it can carry everything from luggage to bicycles with ease. This makes it an ideal choice for road trips or daily commutes where you need to transport large amounts of gear.

The car also comes with a semi-autonomous driving system that can take control of the vehicle in certain situations, such as on motorways or in heavy traffic. While this feature is not available on all trim levels, those who want it will be pleased to know that it's available on some models.

**Getting Your Ideal Car**

Finally, Mercedes Benz offers a unique service called "Configurator," which allows you to build your ideal car and receive five competing prices from top dealers within 24 hours. This service is available online, making it easy for customers to research and compare different models without having to visit dealerships.

Overall, the Mercedes E-Class Estate is a great choice for those looking for a practical luxury estate car with impressive features and handling capabilities. While there are some minor annoyances, they are easily outweighed by the car's many strengths.
