Why is it expensive to run? I’m in the states so we don’t pay annual taxes on our cars. Instead, each state requires you renew your license plate sticker which can cost $25 in a republican state like Kansas and $150 in a democrat state like Illinois.

My dad bought a 2006 R320 Diesel back in 2012. As a 4 people family that thing was a dream and a doom. It was no doubt the most comfy car I sat in and as a family that drove from Germany to Croatia every year and to Macedonia sometimes (a 2000km drive) it was compared to the 2000 ML 320 or the 2013 C180 a real dream. You just sat in the middle row like a king. BUT that thing had some real issues at least for us. On a drive to Croatia the car went into limp mode. Waited for 8 hours for it to be fixed in the middle of Austria (I think it we paid around 3,5k for a EMS change) just for it to break down in Croatia again because of a particle filter. We did get a loan car paid by our insurance and the car was sent back to Germany to be fixed. Forward 3years and the Air-Matic had a compressor issue. Fixed it and sold it. But the Air-Matic has always been known to break down so it was a matter of time for that to happen.

Brilliant car. Mine is a 2007 R320 and it has been outstanding in the 5 years I’ve owned it. It has 200.000km on the clock and looks almost brand new inside. Cheap on fuel, pulls like a train an eats long stretches of road for breakfast. Build quality is outstanding, and it looks a bit odd witch i like. As long as you maintain it properly it’s not going to let you down. Only buy one that has been maintained according to the factory program. This car is like an S class wagon, comfortable as hell and can carry 4 adults and two children in comfort for long periods of time. If you want one, buy one!

My car service in Chicago used this car to transport us from O Hare to downtown . Since there were only 2 or 3 of us , plenty of room in the boot for bags. The ride and “ quiet “ was fantastic. Much better than a Suburban. The owner got great fuel efficiency. I really thought about buying one based on my experience. The problem was there were no used models available at an affordable price in the US. If I were in the UK would seriously consider a diesel with 100k that had been serviced.

@@diyguy928 Hey yea it's a great car, luxurious, spacious, practical & powerful, Perfect for my family of 5. But yes it has a few issues that require some thousands to fix, but I don't mind spending a bit of money on it, because the way I see it is, when we decided we needed a 7 seater, we could have gone & got a 40-50K loan & bought a something newer like a CX9. But we bought the R320 for 16K. & it does exactly the same thing as a 50K new 7 seater can do. & it's also So much better than any other 7 seater in the same price range & age. So I don't mind spending some thousands on it to fix a few things. The main issues I've had is the Transfer Case chain stretched & tensioner broke, requiring a rebuild & repairs. The oil cooler in the valley of the V6 is leaking oil down out the back of the engine (looks like a rear main oil seal leaking, but its not), requires a big job to fix it, its not major, but annoying. & Drivers electric window button set needs replacement, buttons broken & come off. The expanding spare tyre is useless. Removed it & just use the best Slime flat tyre pump kit in case of a flat.

I think the 1st gen R class was an awkward-looking machine, especially from the front but the 2nd gen looks great from most angles.

Also, the GL has an absolutely claustrophobic rear row, but I (6’3”) could sit for hours in the 3rd row of our R Class. Yes, the GL has more power, and both are fool proof in the snow. Wish they had bothered advertising it, I can’t think of another vehicle like it. Remember, the R is a true RWD/AWD... not a car crossover.
