A new mercedes or a old mercedes (pre 85) new ones have to give a lot up in order to stay competative,,, older ones unless you have owned them since they were new and maintained them, Well its luck of the draw,,,,Personally speaking , I drive mercedes benz's , simply because there is no other car out there that I would rather drive I have owned 85 300sd 85 300 td 78 450 sel and my most recent shining joy is a 85 500 sel 4 seater and yes I certainly do love the 126 frame and bodies,,,, keep your honda's toy otas and other great mileage cars
Mine are all 20 + years old and none of them are disposable, and just by the way
remember back 20 some years ago and remember the type of product the "other " guys made,,,,
