I bought my 1998 S 500 L with a little under 30,000 Kms. The car was in perfect shape and fully mantained at the dealership. It also came with an amazing list of options including the rear trunk-mounted fridge, parktronic, leather/wood steering wheel, glass moonroof, bose sound system and rear & side sun screens.
I have always been a Mercedes fan and owner and this was my dream car. It has perfomed and live up to my expectarions in such a way that I also acquiered the coupe (CL...

I purchased a 1999 Mercedes S500, bought from a Mercedes dealer, with full service history and Mercedes warranty. It had only done 50k miles when I purchased it 16 months ago and I was hoping for a reliable car that could take the 30,000+ miles a year I tend to do. Starting with reliability, so far the car has had more than 28 faults in the 20 months, including 3 roadside breakdowns leaving the car unroadworthy. The faults have ranged from suspension (4 bushes, air compressor, compressor... (read more)

From the perspective of safe, reliable transportation, the Mercedes S Class is the best of the best.

The handling is good enough you forget it is nearly three tons surrounding you. The trunk is big enough for the Sopranos to use for... (read more)

I fancied an Aston Martin DB7 whilst on my search for the right spec car for my needs but cannot complain or question my choice of an S-Class 500L as it is a whole lot of car. A good car especially when you consider that from new it cost a little over £89,000 but I paid a little under £17,000. It feels so good to drive and discs and pads cost no more than the same for a Ford or Vauxhall. (read more)

Service bills ridiculous...eats... (read more)

I quite agree I bought a Mercedes 190E in 1990 assuming that the vehicle would last at least 10years. It cost me a fortune to keep it on the road with silly faults, 3 head gaskets later I got rid of it. I've has 3 Renault Laguna's since and not one problem. Mercedes are rubbish !!
