Agree with the general assessment of MB ABS braking. After driving my '88 E for 22+ years, I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times I had to put the brakes on a full panic stop, and it's never let me down. It's part of the comfort zone built into these things, and for those rare occasions when it becomes necessary, I'm thankful every time!
