much higher maintaince costs, much more electronics, and the car requires the use of scan tool a lot to fix it. Nice driving car but a lot more money needed to keep it running properly than a old diesel

I had one... put 2k miles on it, and sold it...
see my signature.
the cat. converter had been replaced twice, once by PO, and once by me... and still threw error codes & check engine lights

mine had only car phone & CDC for options...

the MB text was stiff, I know 210's with leather are MUCH more appealing, a few of my customers have them, and I enjoy driving it...

known for rust in ODD areas...

noisy for what I'm used to...
just seemed, finicky IMO.
