Question 1

Which diesel engine is best in a used Mercedes V-Class?

Accepted Answer

The V 250 d is the usual all-rounder for a large van carried fully loaded, and the V 300 d sold since 2019 adds the most pulling power. The V 220 d suits lighter use; whichever you pick, look for regular oil changes in the service book.

Question 2

How much road tax does a used V-Class diesel pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Its CO₂ figure × 0.9 × a band factor that rises by 0.1 for every 10 g/km above 90, so a heavy people carrier pays well above the €30 minimum. A diesel pays half as much again as a petrol car with the same CO₂.

Question 3

Is a diesel V-Class suited to short trips around Luxembourg City?

Accepted Answer

Less so: on short runs its particulate filter struggles to regenerate and can clog. A diesel V-Class makes most sense for long commutes, holidays with a full load and airport runs.

Question 4

Which versions does the new Mercedes V-Class diesel come in?

Accepted Answer

The V 220 d with 163 PS, the V 250 d with 190 PS and the V 300 d with 237 PS, all automatic, in three lengths, L1, L2 and L3. Trims step up from the base van through Avantgarde and Style to Exclusive, offered on the longer V 250 d and V 300 d.
