My brother got a one owner driven by an old lady to church Lexus LS300 or 400 a year or so ago. I rode in it last time I was there.
Very MB-like in that the ride and car were very solid, controls were well thought out, etc. He has had very little trouble or work on it. Says its been a great car and is very reliable. He got it through an auction buddy who trolls the local car auctions for stuff like this.
