1988 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 420 SEL review from North America
"Thank you Jesus!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing to complain about this car just drivers seat leans toward the door. and there is a sound of the vent doors closing when I start the car.
General comments?
I am in love. I read about the timing chain and from what I see this car was well cared for. I am the second owner and I paid 2000 so if I get 50000 miles from it I made money. I look forward to driving this car for a long time. A/C works everything works on the car I know why people buy these cars will buy a another one.
