My only rule, is that you should never buy a new Mercedes. Too much of a hit driving it off the lot.
My good friend is a mechanic for Benz and he says differently but it wouldn't stop me from getting one.....they are sexy

I've got a 98 E class wagon. It is huge car with a 3 liter turbo diesel. 259K Kilometers on it(about 161K miles) She happily ran at about 170 K/PH (110 mph) down to Ramstein today. MBs are generally rock solid, and actually relatively cheap for parts over here compared to the other national brands.

The only thing I disliked about the car today when I test drove it was the lack of giddy up that it had. My dad has a 2004 BMW 325xi and that baby is quick, really wish the Mercedes was similar.
