Not an e class but I have a facelift C class 250 with a mapped ecu in amg trim and a 6 speed manual.
It replaced our R75 contemporary and I love the car. There are differences but the more modern technology makes it a much better car in my eyes.
We average 47 mpg(actual) from a 250 BHP car. The interior is also a nice place to sit.
Things I miss from the R75
Sunroof
Folding rear seat
Memory seats (not fitted to my model)
I still have the ZT 190 though for that MGR urge
I would recommend Mercs as replacements all day long bit I am now biased
