General Comments:

Mercedes Benz is and always will be the best car in the world.

This car is the most reliable car I have ever owned.

The build quality of this car is just amazing after 274000km, there is not a single rattle and it is as solid as a rock with no rust, every last feature of the car except the speed control still works after 17 years.

The car is extremely comfortable, and handles excellently. The boot is enormous. It still has it's Becker radio, and the sound quality is excellent. The engine uses almost no oil. It is not too bad on gas about 8 to 10 km/L.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
