"One of a kind, marvelous!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Radiator leecks with 108.000 km.

Oil pump failure at 109.000.

Tie rod ends got old at 109.200 km.

General comments?

The car has a full service history and air conditioning, steering wheels and sunroof. However the cabin is large, the back seats are uncomfortable for a tall person.

Brazil doesn't offer proper assistance for that kind of car at the Mercedes Dealers.

Parts are difficult to find.

You have the most beautiful car ever made by Mercedes Benz. The new V-8 5.0 cylinder is one of a kind. Take care of it.

Congratulations!

I live in Brazil too, and I have owned several Mercedes cars during the last 30 years, without any service problems (in S.Paulo). Parts may take some time to be delivered, but the local Mercedes plant ensures expensive, but reliable delivery of original parts. I am a happy client of Zanini authorized service garage.
