thanks Larrybible for your reply , do u think I should buy a e320 instead of the e420 . wich one has a better engine.As for repairs I cant remember the last time I took my car to a mechanic and i probably never will.So let me know what you think e320 vs e420 compare to my 300e My 300e is a very good car I have done all the possibel repairs myself took good care of the car and now I need a new challenge.
