So I wouldn't mind an S class but they are a bit out of my current price range (did see a '90 560SEL but it is a bit rough). Have also seen some nice clean E320's ('99 & '00) with about 140k on them and a C230 Sport with 89k.

I would be thankful for any words of wisdom concerning these models or others I haven't mentioned but should know about.

Any suggestions?
Not sure of your price range but a W124 500E / E500 ( $14K-$20K )will give you a great ride along with exclusivity and appreciating value.

For a bit less the W124 400E / E420 ( $6K-$10K ) are reasonable.

Both not laden with electronics, easy to work on, parts available for the DIY'er and one of the best Mercs ever built !
