[@vanderlubbe7791]

It's a really really good thing, to see all those things done. As cars get older, all those things need to be done. Some of them are 50k-75k-100k-150k milage things. Things that can get to be very expensive to have done. So buying a car that has all the high mileage service fundamentals properly done, is actually a HUGE DEAL. I buy my cars the same way as Ed on that point, anyway.. From some older gent, woman, or couple that has done all the right service work, and then buy the car super cheap..and drive it for 2-3-4 years and do ZERO service on it. Then, at the end... limp it to the junkyard, for my down payment on my next high mileage used car at super cheap prices. Last one cost me $1200 total, including the purchase price, for +4 years of driving. never buy new! I never buy specific models or brands, that's how you walk into financial deathtraps. I buy the right car in the right condition. Could be a Buick, a Chrysler, a ford, a Toyota, a Nissan...who knows. It just has to be the right serviced car.

I figured, I was going to do a lot of similar stuff so I'll give it a chance, until i stall it every 3rd start because the clutch is like squatting 150 lbs and it had a grip range of about 2 mm - he must have been planning on putting an enormous turbo on it and ran out of money.

There's something all too funny about watching Ed declare the Range Rover to be among the world's best cars after watching Hoovie detail all the things wrong with his (mechanically totaled was how he described it), and then burying it in a hole that originally held his LeBaron convertible. That said, I don't know why I have never owned a S Class Mercedes of some sort. I've enjoyed each one I've driven, and I've driven most generations of S Class at least once (still need to check the W140 and the latest generation off the list).

Nope.

I have a 2007 S550 and absolutely love it. It’s incredibly comfortable, performs very well for it’s size, and I love the design (both interior and exterior.) They’re much better vehicles than the C215/W220 predecessors and actually seem to be much more reliable. I acquired mine with 79k miles about a year and a half ago and now have 94.5k. Haven’t had any large issues (knock on wood) besides the fact that my Airmatic pump needs replacement. Car drives fine, but the pump is abnormally loud. Maintenance is quite expensive comparatively, but a good Indy and some DIY’ing can cut that down significantly. Basically I’ve done maintenance, tires (these cars LOVE to eat tires), and some minor things like a trans mount and a valve gasket leak (honestly can’t remember exactly what it was, but it was minor and the dealer quoted me the cheapest rate to get it fixed. ) I highly recommend these cars if you know what you’re getting into reliability wise. It’s not a Lexus, but it’s not a Range Rover either. The S65 is actually probably one of the most reliable models as really the only thing to watch for is the coil packs and ABC suspension.

Land Cruiser?

[@lehmanp]

One of my favorite cars. Have a fond memory of being driven to my Year 12 formal in one, as a family friend had just picked up a brand new '11 S65 AMG in the same color too! I remember finding the front brakes so interesting haha.
