Mbenz in general seems to have lost the plot the quality which was highly praised in previous years seems to have deteriorated recent tests criticise M class ,A class,even the new S class,for interior build quality,it has been commented that VW could show MB how to build a quality interior.As for prices so many people are now importing from europe one dealer in my area has closed.I would nothave said this a few years ago but BMW seem to be superior now a days.
