The S class is more complicated than the CLK and the MPG will be a little worse,,you will get some replies later

thanks malcolm, complicated as in servicing, running gear etc?, was hoping the extras wouldnt make much difference to the running of the car as in future problems

They are great cars,,and I love them,,but the suspension can be expensive if it fails, just like on my car. we have another post on this tonight. If you have a good reserve fund then my all means

The only real problem with the S class is the rusty body work... it will just be beginning to fall apart round now... other problems ...instrument cluster...some were replaced under recall but not all ..and the airmatic suspension pump around £300 to buy but should last 100K + miles... seats can be a bit uncomfortable after arounf 100K as well..

thanks for the speedy replies folks,, was kinda hoping that at 60 k the running gear etc would be ok but i suppose every car made has its hidden nasty somewhere lol

If you are going for an S-Class you would be better off with a diesel version. I went from Glasgow to Edinburgh and back today and averaged 46mpg

I agree 100% with a 220 and a great way to travel
