The w220 is not an upgrade to a very nice condition w140.
The fit and finish is on a par with a late model korean car. The value for a
very low mile w220 is much under $19k. The w222 is a bit closer to the $20k
mark. I can pick up the 2000-2005 S series hovering around $10k or less all

for the last month, or if I have, it's gone before I can see it.
Still on the hunt for a 1997-99 S500, S420 or S320, or a nice 2001 E55.
There's a 2001 E55 I'm going to look at tomorrow if it's still around
