Hello and welcome

Mercedes might not be the best for you. Which is very difficult to say as a lover of the brand.

I would start looking at a C or E220CDI. That said I had two CLK's did over 115K miles in both with almost no problems.

Me -2019 GLC 350 coupe AMG line. Mrs- ford kuga 65 plate awd powershift .
I'd look at an e class for big sofa like seats. The c class mainly have recaro style seats . The 250 type should cruise just nicely.

Are you going to be affected by city low emissions zones ?

the s class is one ive definatley crossed off read some awfull reviews on that model
S-Class is a great car however it’s not ideal for your application. Poor reviews are as likely as not from owners who can afford to buy one that is many years old but don’t realise how complex the cars are and how expensive they can be to maintain.
