Where everything works depends more on the driver than the age of the car.
There are 25 yo cars where everything works and 2000 cars where everything is frustrating (even more in a brand new car because the car is new)

1998 + E320's are awesome buys. The V6 is Mercedes most trouble free engine, IMHO, to date. There do not seem to be any mechanical weaknesses, other than the harmonic balancer, and the goo building up under the oil cap because of the PCV design. Just KEEP YOUR OIL CLEAN, and they will never stop going. My dad has over 170K on his E320 4-matic. These cars are just SO underrated...You'd swear, with their track record, they were built in Japan.
