New Car

So,

I have a 94 E420 that I've now been driving for almost 7 years. It has been (and continues to be) a great car... but... I"m getting the itch.

Assuming I do the smart things and get another used Mercedes.... anyone have recommendations for models to look at (that are reliable and not known to be problematic)??

Willy

I wish I was ready to buy, I'd consider your E420.

W210 owners seem satisfied with their rides on this forum. Do a search, lots of info.

so..

The W210 is what followed the W124?

I do like my white 94 E420... but again, I'm getting the itch :-) I'll make sure to post it here if/when I'm looking to sell.

Yep. A few problems to watch (rust, perch springs, etc) However, most guys around here love their 210's. Other than that the 210's are pretty straight fwd. Not a lot of silly gizmos.
