1996_S500 Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | Re: Decommissioned the 500 SEL zeq - 9/8/2006 7:52 AM 1996_S500 - 9/8/2006 10:04 AM zeq - 9/8/2006 1:17 AM The cars are solid but maintenace to keep it going is still expensive. all mercedes have a lot of maintenance. Even W140..... That's why many people says the W140s or any other old mercs are cheap to buy now. But they don't understand the expensive maintenance. When something goes wrong, They say the car is POS. yea, I remember someone saying once: There is nothing more expensive than a Cheap Mercedes. LOL. | ||

Later MBs are both. yea, that is true. After I repaired most of the stuff that was necessary, my W126 was reliable for a pretty long time. These cars are so strong, mechanically and physically. | ||

YET, even though the W126 has much less electronics than 90's cars, it is still very advanced. What I mean is, is that the W126 has basically everything that the W140 has. The only thing that I see that my W126 DOES NOT have, that my W140 DOES have, is.......................................................... CUPHOLDERS!!!!!!!!!! (But really, who cares about cupholders anyway?) The W126 is one car that was modern even in the late 90's. LONG LIVE THE W126. | ||

I never use mine. It is too much of a risk to ruin your wood or leather. It is good the W126 doesn't have cupholders. | ||
