I think i'll keep my W124. Yeah it rides like crap compared to the new cars, it sucks in snow, slow off the line and things in the engine bay look so old the metal looks like stuff you see in an archeological dig, but I think I can live with that thank you very much and I can probably save and do some of the work in my driveway. I have had two MAJOR expenses, head gasket and tranny rebuild after b2 band failure. Catastrophic failures are just not my cup of tea, I almost got rid of it after the tranny thing but I am so glad I did not.
What happens when these things go out of warranty?
I hope people arent buying Benzes because they see my ole gal going down the road
