Welch;1083258 said:Hi linrikin,
I don't think Mercs are any more reliable than BMWs nowadays. I have driven an E200 and 525i. Reliability about the same. Only difference is that Merc charges way more to repair any faults. For instance, windscreen washer fluid leaking in both cars. Merc charged >$800 to fix, BMW charged about $200 to fix. Many other items the same story, C&C charges way more than PML to fix similar issues.
My dad currently has an S class, it has had electrical and brake gremlins, so far fixed under warranty.
On the other hand I am currently driving a 640i coupe, absolutely no problems so far......
The S class has a sublime ride, extremely comfortable, then you hop out and climb into the 6 series and the moment you drive it, you are smitten.
So if you love driving, get a BMW, if you are driven to work, get a Merc, if you want reliability, get a Lexus.
Cheers.

Lol. Nowadays sinkieland got a lot of closet millionaires...if SE's are gonna judge people based on their dressing, they risk losing out on a lot of potential customers like yourself lol. I ever went to Lambo showroom with a guy who dressed very lokkok. wore singlet n slippers...SE still entertained him. So he asked: Why do you still bother to entertain me even though I'm dressed like this? SE's reply: Knowing this is a Lambo showroom, if a customer has the guts to walk in with flip flops, we have the guts to entertain you.
I personally feel that Merc like to chop carrot.. don't be too nice i.e. civilised
sometimes got to stand ur ground n be firm. Good thing is, all these experiences help hone my negotiation skills..
