Avoid what year 500SL?

I have read on this forumn that you really should try for a 1991 or newer 500SL Because of On Board Diagnostics (OBD) other than that is there any thing else to avoid or look at? I Test drove a 1994 Brilliant Green 500SL. I liked it very much. The wife liked it but thought it was a little to flashy...maybe I will look for a more subdued color...I am sold on this model. I will own one soon.
I got a really fair trade in value on my 1972 23000 mile 350SL I would hate to see it go it might be in the top five in the country mileage and condition wise. The only thing is I feel extremely guilty putting mileage on the car. A 500Sl I would be driven and enjoyed. Maybe in the garage on salty winter day...but driven most others. Any thought's?
