 | Question: R-Class with V8 diesel? Hello guys, My father asked me if I could ask some of you, if anyone have heard when the R-Class is coming with the V8 diesel engine? Best regards, Christopher |

| Re: Question: R-Class with V8 diesel? Hello Rightnow, As far as I know, there are no plans of equipping the R-Class with the '420 CDI V8 diesel engine. Sales in Europe have been poor and there is no need to add an engine to an R-Class model which will sell in even poorer numbers. The R320 CDI 4Matic should be powerful enough. I've driven it and it's not slouch. Here's the review: Link: - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER  |
