Mercedes and please no flames.
I bought a 320 SUV with about 40,000 mile on it 6 years ago. Everything was fine till about 140,000 miles when the thing started to fall apart.
Front end differential went out on me at the beach and I had to have it towed all the way home (300 miles). It actually locked up on the road while I was driving it. I had it repaired. Now I wish I could attach the repair list for that thing before I gave it away on Craigs list. Radiator even went out..., Let me just say I put thousands in trying to keep that car running. When the transmission went out I listed it on Craigs List for $2,000 and sold it for junk.
Now to compare, I have a 1996 Landcruiser that my wife brough new that has close to 350,000 miles on it that has only had maintenance work done on it.
I hate Mercedes...
