      I used to own one of these , their major problem is their maintenance ...
      Let's face it , these cars are old , and mostly gonna need quite a lot of maintenance ...
      The problem with these specific models is that they are not old and simple enough to do their maintenance yourself, yet not modern enough to need little or no maintenance , consequently , you end up ( in most cases) with a car that needs repairs that would cost almost twice its price ...
      Don't get me wrong , i am still a Mercedes fan to the heart , specially these old ones , I just think they shouldn't be a daily-driver ..
      It probably should be something you take out for a spin or a date in a warm summer night every once in awhile ...

    The only reason he changed to the E class was... and I'm not joking here... the battery died. Seriously. He just left and came home in a new blue Mercedes lol. Grandma was pissed.

    Front fenders, 2 doors and the hatch had to be replaced.
    Mercedes in Sweden were very helpful, and it was taken care of due to warranty.
    Other than that, well built as any MB.
    Happy New Year!!!

    What a great car! I have a 2001 E430 in the Tectite gray color fully loaded! It has less that 100k and is truly better driving than a lot of these newer cars.

    Mercedes Benz is still very reliable!!!
    I’ve had w123 w124 w210 w211 and now a 2018 w213.
    All of them incredibly reliable and long lasting.
    Proper maintenance at a certified workshop is as always crucial.

    You should do a test Drive on the 04' F150 Lariat 4WD Super Crew cab when it's raining

    My dad bought a 1999 W210 E200 with the 136hp 2.0 liter M111 motor in 2011 and still drives it. Only thing he has replaced through the years is the clutch (6spd manual) and the paint is fading away, so the car is in need of a complete paint job. I have a 1994 W124 with the same motor and 5spd manual. These are not fast cars, but are unique to drive... Not because of their sharp steering, but because of the way they make you feel! Would love to drive the V8 version!

    I just bought a one owner 1999 e430,sport with 110k miles. I just did the motor mounts, trans mount, breaks and rotors. Next will be the big one. Upper,lower,control arms, sway bar bushings, inner and outer tie rods, coils, shocks and a complete rear suspension rebuild kit. Should be done in about a month. Can’t wait to see how she drives. It’s already good but needs the rubber bits replaced.
