My W140s have been pretty bulletproof for the most part. I haven’t had to touch the 1994 other than maintenance for some months now, and the things that came up were not unusual or difficult to fix. For example, I had the wiper delay relay fail on it a few months ago. Got a rebuilt off Amazon for $50 and sold the core to Programa for $35, so it cost me a net of $15.
The Tommymobile just won’t die. It’s got near 300k on it and it just keeps running and running. These are good solid cars if the weak parts like wiring harnesses have been addressed. My SL500 that has the same running gear has barely been touched since I bought it 2-1/2 years ago. -D > On May 6, 2017, at 9:06 AM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> > wrote: > > The catch: it's a 140, among the first of the electronic nightmare cars. > Martha and Clay have tested these waters... > > ------------- > Max > Charleston SC > > On Sat, May 6, 2017 at 9:01 AM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes < > mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > >> What's the catch?
