What a car! Had this motor in 2012 for about 4 months. She had moon shuttle mileague, over 200K and drove like a dream literally. Started to give bother and was air locking and cutting out diesel. Every time I cleared the air she went great for 10+ miles then done it again. Too old to put the money into so let her go but a testament to Mercedes quality. Reliable big bus when running well. Car was 18 going on 19 when I had it so she definately done her time and probably over again. Alreay planning/saving for a newer Benz. BMW/Audis etc are great motors too but the Mercs just ooze of quality and sophistication!

Good alternative to a common BMW 3 series, and much better spec'ed than an Audi a4. Very reliable. 6 cylinder (C240 2.6 & C320 3.2) engines surprisingly economical, smooth, quiet and capable of astronomical (300K) mileages. Parts and DIY/independent servicing reasonable.
Diesels prone to clocking. FSH essential.
Avantgarde & auto with leather interior preferred to basic "Classic" models.
I am already saving for a new one.
