1994 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 300 SE review from Japan
"It is a fantastic luxury car and a treat to own and drive."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front passenger side power window motor failed- replaced for ¥30,000 (approx US$ 250)
No other problems.
General comments?
Looks great, rides well, and lives up to its luxury model reputation.
My particular model does not have leather seats (this is last year it was an option), and I wish it did.
The sun roof is very large and there is a lot of glare (and sun) which I do not mind, but my wife complains about- so on my own, the roof is open :-), but with my wife closed :- (
