I was faced with that when I purchased my 95 S-350. We looked at a Jag and even drove one. They ride better than a Mercedes and look a LOT better but the reliability thing is big for me. Mercedes is the best engineered car in the world. I am at 180,000 miles in the S-350 and there is not a rattle or squeak in the car. Tight as Dick's hatband. A Jag with 180,000 miles on it would be falling apart. I know, my brother had one.
