What are the running costs for a Mercedes-Benz E 200?

What mileage per gallon would I get from a Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1.8-litre petrol automatic? Also, how much road tax would I have to pay?

Thank you

Hi Patrick,

We assume you mean the latest Mercedes-Benz E 200 BlueEfficiency. With the seven-speed automatic gearbox this uses 6.5- to 6.9 litres/100km (43.4- to 40.9mpg) depending on the version. It's either Band C or D for tax (depending again on version), costing €330 or €481.

If you have a specific model in mind come back to us and we'll answer more precisely.
