I've 1998 S320 W140 and I beloved it. This is the best car if y'all tin do service work your self. And not only oil change, but most of information technology. Otherwise it's Money pot. I dear it because I can work on it, and set things very easily. Yes information technology takes time simply I airplane to piece of work in summer time on things that needed to be prepare. It'southward solid and very stylish car that can give you hours of driving fun without stress. Some of the parts are non easy to find in your local store, but planty online shop including Amazon. If you are looking for one, make sure it has replaced head gasket at once. Expect for lower command arm bushing and upper control arm and steering operation. These are very expensive jobs and not piece of cake to do for many diyer. Many electrical and HVAC issues if yous can't set up your self, don't rely on delaership, they don't have whatever clue of it.

Owns this car

The exterior design is one of a kind, in that location's no question nigh it. It'southward the sweetest, best, nigh fashionable and most beautiful design always! The design is timeless! If the outside paint is new and shiny, the car tin can easily pass as a brand new electric current yr automobile! As far equally reliability, these cars take some issues with the electric wiring and some vacuum organisation issues, but other than that, I tin't state this plenty, it has the almost beautiful, the nigh functional exterior design of all!

Owns this car

This is a solid motorcar. But i previous owner and they took intendance of information technology. Smoothen ride. For a '97 information technology has pretty avant-garde features (pelting sensing wipers, memory seat settings, etc.) Not also bad on gas for a large car. 25 on highway if I ready the cruise command for 60 and simply leave it. Beloved the sunday roof. Dorsum seat leg room is huge. Tranquillity ride. Road trip sky. And the best part ... it'southward a Benz!
