Re: [MBZ] OT what is wrong with people?

Just like Mercedes, unless one buys a used one.
I would not buy a new one even if I won the big lottery.
If I were so lucky, I think I would look for either an SD or and SDL or, 
maybe a big gasser.

Anyone who had a good SDL always regrets selling it.

Not really. A friend has had a couple of used ones and loves them. He 
would still be driving the first one but for an accident that wrote it off.

He bought a newer one and is having no issues.
Don't recall the exact years but first was around 2000 and I think the 
newer one is about 2007.

Yes. This one I had 10 years ago. Sold it to Curley. Regretted it. Now I have 
had it back for a couple of years. I might sell it but I am sure I would regret 
it again if I did.

Actually, the ES300s were pretty reliable cars and considered relatively
