1994 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E420 review from North America
"These are monster cars"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt at 102,000.
Wheel bearing at 108,000.
Tierod at 108,000.
Front suspension damaged and replaced at 108,000.
General comments?
The car might have been heavy but handled like half its weight.
No other car can be still as comfortable (while going over 100mph) like this one.
I loved the heated seats and the way the air conditioning worked.
