Distinguished by an impossibly long bonnet, the three pointed star set atop the vee-radiator almost like a fighter pilot\222s gun sight, these Stuttgart built leviathans were powered by massive straight six engines of almost seven litres capacity and were capable of nudging 200km/h, a speed which most motorists could not imagine in the late 1920s.
THEY used to be called "idiot lights," those little red warning signals on the instrument panel that you hoped you never saw glowing.

Everything new out of Mercedes-Benz doesn\222t always reach our radar\205 that is until the acronym AMG enters the picture. Such is the case with the new generation E-Class.

Mercedes is claiming more than 2,000 parts are new or different, but the car only has minor exterior tweaks and only has the usual, such as updated bumpers. There are some engine updates as well.
