I'd like to add the W211 Mercedes E-Class as a contender. Had an '03 E320CDI about 10 years ago, it had a 3.2 litre straight-six turbodiesel that made more torque than their 5.0 V8 at the time & an interior that was a very pleasant place to be. Still the best car I've ever owned. And thousands of continental taxi drivers can't be wrong

My brothers both had suds. Absolutely brilliant cars, my eldest brother had a lot of them! His first one was a 1.5 ti which he swapped in a 1.7 from a 33 with twin 40 dellortos so fuel consumption went out the window! It also had a factory sports exhaust, momo wheels and steering wheel with bucket seats. I remember driving around when we only fitted the front half of the exhaust, that was a laugh
