Well I have griven a few w140's recently becasue I am in the market for one. I noticed they have really thick glass and the dealer told me its bulletproof. I have looked at a few s320's, and came colse to buying one. Upon picking the car up for inspection , I found out that it was in a really bad accident. Upon checking Carfax etc, the car was severly damgaed, purchased buy a body shop, fixed and sold to a unsuspecting buyer, who then tried to sell it to me (unsuspoectingly) He is know filling suit agaisnt that body shop, and I was angry that I missed such a great deal. I am looking at a 400SE today. Akry what is your gas milage? Also I noticed that after completing a turn the w140's steering wheel's don't turn back by themselves, you have to turn them out. On my 300E as soon as I get out of a turn I just get on the gas and the wheel comes about by itself.
