I've always been impressed how well the Mercedes W211 stood up to high mileage when sitting in the back of taxis and seeing them with 300,000+ miles, so when I saw my good friend Keith Adams was looking to offload his E220 CDi project to a new home I knew it was going to be my next project.

With so much talk of EVs these days, I thought i'd look into the actual costs of buying an EV and was shocked to find that if you took out HP on a Tesla Model S it would be around £1300 a month with a sizable deposit. How does a 15 year old executive car compare that costs the same as a monthly payment on a new Tesla?
