Solid, reliable and bulletproof (almost)
Dealers are patronising and rude - use an independent specialist.
I got my W reg 87k miles Mercedes 230k auto after my previous (3 year old - driven from new) 5 series BMW broke down 5 times in 3 years!)
Anyway - car had FSH - vital for any used Merc, and in the 7 months I have had it - no niggles no problems and drives pretty good. Has a bit of a sloppy feel to the steering when the box is on sport - but if you switch it to wet - drives much better.
Was an ex police car so has been meticulously maintained. It is not an exciting car to drive, you are not going to beat many boy racers at the lights, but then it is not designed for that - great motorway cruiser.
