The post facelift cars might be improved in some areas, but are cheapened
overall with many of the features of the earlier cars being eliminated. With
that said, I have only owned pre 95 140s and have not had any issues with them.

I owned a 1995 S500 coupe, first W140 I owned. Great car, bulletproof for the
most part, but fairly complex.
I would avoid any W140 1995 and earlier if possible. The facelift models (1996
and later) are much improved and don’t suffer from the issues the pre-facelift

Been there, done that. The HOA is supposed to be having their title agent look

around on occasion with “special assessments” when they need money. Long term
it will be more than just $350/year, I’m betting.
For that
When you petition the HOA, try to think about something that might be important
to them, and that you are OK with or maybe even want yourself, and then omit it
from your plans. The hope is they will focus on that, you can acquiesce, and
they will be happy.
