Is this an ice hockey top? I really dont know. He has a good collection of caps though lining the wall on the rant videos in what Im guessing is the office. What car loved this when it was launched. The generation of makers trying to make the new model appear slimmer/smaller than their predecessors. See e39 5 that looked shorter than the e34. Same for the a6 that came in 98/99 much more elegant than the barge before. How times have changed.

Expensive, but worth it. Front driver door actuators leak on soft close on both, but somewhat reasonably fixed. No other problems. Love the styling, power and luxury. Perfect for long trips. I'm attempting to upgrade navigation with touchscreen while preserving factory look.

[@JP-yc1wp]

I have a 2001 S500l and it’s the best car I’ve ever owned. At the time, the comfort level and ride quality on this car was unrivalled and even nearly 20 years later, it still puts most cars on the road to shame. I’ve had a couple of small issues in my 2 years of ownership, one being rust, which I had sorted shortly after I got the car , a track rod end and a cam shaft position sensor which were all relatively cheap. I had a bit of a worry when my suspension refused to lift after dropping low, took it to my local garage who found it to be the connectors on the compressor! If I had listened to the people who know nothing about the suspension system and constantly spout on about it costing thousands of pounds every time it goes wrong then I’d have had it scrapped! The cost of my airmatic suspension repair? £97! A glorious motor that’s wafts me around in total silence and serenity (unless I use the kick down, which unleashes the V8 symphony) this car has made me enjoy driving again. All this for £1500! Bargain!

[@encinobalboa]

I agree, 1.5k is small money for a lot of car. ABC suspension would worry me. Coil over conversion would be my ticket. Otherwise, the rest is standard Merc.

As much as I miss having an auto, I'm somewhat glad that my diesel Saab 9-3 convertible is equipped with the 6 speed manual. I just think as you say the engine isnt really ever sure what its doing but that is more easily controlled with the manual. There is unbelievable turbo lag but when up to speed I think cruising is a sweet spot for it. In other words, I hate driving it in traffic, but at 30+ its a joy for what it is. I can see why you made the switch for an all round wofter. I think the styling of this particular model has not aged as well as its rivals but in the right spec any barge can still look the part. But having been for a spin in the 760Li I can confirm that they are indeed leagues apart. Plenty of these on the market for sub £2k, but that air suspension is going to let everyone down at some point. Great video as ever, thoroughly enjoying the barge series.

[@encinobalboa]

Yes, ABC is going to be a problem. Coil over conversion trades a little ride for permanent peace of mind.

Did you have issues with your w220?

[@MeDicen_Rocha]

Id rather keep people terrified of the W220, thats what keeps them cheap. However, the service history is a must. Specially in cars with the ABC suspension, as people see it low on fluid, and in an act of stupidity, cheapness and ignorance, decide to fill it up with the wrong fluid, and ruin absolutely all the seals.

[@strykz63]

Enjoyed the review.. I have a 2003 S500, which personally i think is the best year for this car for a couple of reasons.. Mines just hit 237,000 miles the other day.. the engine is still running strong and smooth.. I decided I'll just keep mines as long as I possibly can because the car is super reliable (especially with this engine) and not only that, for a luxury car I cant complain. I have 20' inch rims on mines (came with the car when i bought it) and it rides so nice.. as for the suspension, the parts for the suspension are pretty cheap now adays so I'll keep it. I know some people opted to convert to steel springs. I'm sorry but I'm not taking that air ride out of my S-class.. trust me on long trips you'll appreciate the ride quality with air...

[@MrCarGuy]

I am very familiar with the W220. Sadly, 2003 is the worst model year in terms of issues and recalls. It was the first year for the facelift accessories which had more problems and the one-year-only COMAND that had more issues than COMAND 2.5.

[@emmettl7953]

Owned it for one year. Every time I drive it, there is a lot of satisfaction. Like what Jay feels, this car is so comfortable, being smooth and well positioning. Steering is so assuring on road that I often drive it with single hand (colossal but I have big hands : ). Even on narrow lane this car feels more compact than most of the 5 series. Acceleration is not that a good part but it outputs smoothly and confidently. Even in 220k this car easily revs to 220. Actually a sweet deal for my daily horse.

I bought s500l few weeks ago. almost same as yours , silver paint, same interior color, same year, also long version. only difference no seat tables and standard 7 spike wheels. drives like on clouds and very manoeuvrable which is a great thing after my previous car volvo s60 as volvo was terrible at it.

[@astongrad930]

Hi Jay, I recall reading one of your recent KZbin posts wherein you were requesting ideas for future series so here are my suggestions: 1. Best fun used dailies- perhaps this can be segmented by budget I.e Under £5k, £5-£10k, and over £15 2. Depreciation free motoring;the most enjoyable used cars that are likely to hold their value for at least 12 months. 3. Future classics, amid the doom and gloom, it's a great time to negotiate great deals. Where would you tip your smart money. 4. Best hot hatches under £3k, I understand you're not the biggest fan, however, the number of people learning to drive is decreasing so let's give them an incentive to get a license. And I love the concept of hot hatches just like millions of others, useable performance with every day practicality is match made in motoring heaven. Of course, the above should be all done by actually reviewing the cars and not just a discussion. Thanks, looking forward to see which idea will make the grade.

[@astongrad930]

In addition I would recommend the following for your series line up: What's the fastest stock car that can be easily used on uk roads for every day use. So the best all rounder in performance and fun on b roads, city driving and motorway The attainable super car for sub £50k. Would be even more awesome if you can document your journey of getting therr there by flipping cars with only an initial budget of £1k. May take some years but i'll watch every installment.

2006 w220 & 2015 w222 owner here....I have to say its one of the nicest cars you can get for the money, provided you didn't buy it from some shithead who ran it hard & couldn't afford to maintain it. The whole "the w220 is a bad car" is total nonsense, especially the later models that were much improved. The engine on this cars is simple, free of major engine flaws like its successor w221 (which I think is kinda ugly), no turbos or other nonsense that will inevitably lead to premature engine wear & problems down the line (already had a major turbo problem on my w222 w/58k miles, big $$$ if out of warranty ). I did had to replace the suspension valve block on the w220, and one strut for a total of $900 in parts alone. I performed all the labor myself. Relatively simple repairs provided you have a proper jack & basic torx tools.

[@IceQueenVanessa]

2003-06 shouldn’t have those problems After it was revised

[@bensmithkent22]

I agree on the looks I thought this generation was sleek and they saw the competition was smaller sleek looking like the A8, jag xj8 and to a lesser extent the 7 series. The one before was somewhat vulgar. Not ugly but just so big. I think that was the statement they were going for at the time - the ultimate car, to counter the lexus LS that shook up the division. The w140 was far better engineered than this one though.

[@alexpetree2038]

I wouldn't say it's the worst, the one that came after it tends to always have loads of stuff to be fixed on them, and they're much more ugly than the w211 e class and the w212, and even uglier than the w204 c class. The s550 had early engine issues, and the v12 biturbo comes with a lot of more unreliable bits regardless of the car it comes in, and that's the only other option barring the amg versions

Since then I've spend €3000 on 2 services, €4000 on winter tires on 19" AMG original wheels (never used tho), €2500 on both front brakes and discs (rust), €1000 on change of oil in the ABC unit and gearbox, and last but not least €500 on undercoating. All in all €11000 in about 6 years. Car belonged to a collector here in Sweden, he had 80 cars in his collection, he sold of half of it, the S65 was one of them, the car was just sitting around doing nothing hence why both front discs had rusted.

Love Mercs of this period. Had a 99 Merc C180 Espirit which I sold £375 6 years ago, and the f***** is still on the road.

I have a 96 Peugeot 106 diesel. Wind down windows, no central locking, no power steering. But I love it.

I really enjoy watching this channel. So much better than the typical "review someone's car. Over react to said car with KZbin friendly face pulling, plug their stupid social media and t-shirts" I'm probably just a miserable swine but I don't care lol 🐷 Great vids, a nice distraction from the crazy world.

I do my best. Glad you like it!

None of the passengers could be relaxed whilst looking at that bloody top you are wearing Jay.

I bought a clk430 for £375 this month. I'm 18 with no license!

Did you price the insurance?

[@JorgeVitorio]

Hi JayEmm, loved your review about this car and wonder if you have tested and reviewed a Mercedes CLK 240 Elegance and what is your opinion on that car.

[@wezross]

Yesssssss Florida panthers!

[@anishbajaj9426]

Your video title seems contridictory to your review. It appears you like the 220 a lot!

[@AlohaArizona]

I didn't understand. What's bad about these beautiful cars?

[@Nevervar]

To those who own electric cars and think they are saving the world, stop being silly, and at least research the effect e-car production has on world. And don't forget battery utilization issues.
