I guess I am a repair ninja. I went over 8 years with my 300SD as my only car, never had to use another car other than my wife's 300E maybe once or twice...I have done full transmission swaps in 1.5 days.....and I replaced a sway bar on that car in ONE evening....the whole bar...I work fast under time crunches

Now that I have 4 cars and one of them is new its not a concern. Currently all the MB's work but the 190 needs a flex plate or flywheel....but still drives...tearing it apart soon. My 420SEL has never broken down in 2.5 years....and my SD has never broken down in 10.5 years. Its all about excessive maintenance.
