W124s seem to have better quality materials than the current C-Class. I've had many problems with my C-Class. The dealer has given up with some of them and now claim they are normal. Why did they have to change a lot of parts to reach that conclusion? The quality of the materials and the solid feel just doesn't seem to be as good as the W124s. Recent quality and customer satisfaction surveys are going in the wrong direction for MB. Oh well, I will have to buy a 92 500E then.
