1995 Mercedes-Benz S-Class review from Malaysia
"Excellent in every way"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior display lights fail occasionally due to faulty lighting contact. Easily fixable.
Suspension needs changing.
General comments?
Absolutely no regrets buying this car.
Had done a fair bit of research on the W140 before purchasing it and was careful to choose a good car.
Found this beauty which is in almost perfect condition overall except for the expected wear and tear items like the bushes and suspension.
Handles like a luxury car should.
It is commanding on the road and other motorist give way when they see it coming up in their rear mirrors!
Travelled on various types of road conditions and in absolute control whatever the condition is.
Having owned a W126 before this car, I can say that this is better than the W126 in many aspects.
I look forward too many years of trouble free usage of this excellent S320L.
