Stylish E-Class Cabriolet arrives next month

MULLINGAR ADVERTISER, March 19, 2010

Alongside the recently-introduced Coupé and soon-to-arrive new E-Class Estate (also due here in April), the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet completes the family of models derived from the new E-Class Saloon whose arrival here last June has helped propel Mercedes-Benz back to the top of the executive and luxury car league.

Designed to be driven in comfort at any time of year, the Cabriolet has a sound-dampening soft top that can be opened or closed in just 20 seconds, even at speeds of up to 40km/h. However, I always suggest stopping your car while you open or close any cabriolet roof. Mercedes-Benz tells us that when used in the closed position, the top provides extremely high-quality insulation and one of the quietest interiors in its segment.
