I have a 1986 Mercedes and had the following problems: replaced valve seals twice at 5K and 6K miles, alarm went off when car unlocked, radio kept thinking it was being stolen and would cut out, replaced ignition twice at 5K and 10K miles, spring in seat broke at 6K miles, head light unit hinged open one cold night because plastic male connector broke (fixed with door spring hooked to frame otherwise huge cost to replace unit)and nurmerous oil leaks. A 67 Chevy was the best car I ever had.

PS: The Mercedes only has 98,000 miles. I never drive it. Its for sale, cheap.

What model? I had a 1986 300SEL that was just great. Sold it at 160,000 miles, but did get to know the service manager on a first name basis in the latter years. Would do it again.
