HELLO, I have the opportunity to buy a 2000 MB S-500 with 40,000
K.
Any advise on this car? I hope it is not flooded with problems and I
should stay away from it.
Electrical or transmission problems???

Hope to get your advise guys, thanks.

Nice driver. Complicated car. First year of 220 model's production,
greater than average quality issues, including the air suspension struts.

Lower than average use.

You don't say whether YOU like its color and options.

The price ought to more than cover some expected and expensive dealer
repairs since there's no warranty .

There's no shortage of S Class cars so check www.autotrader.com to see
if THIS car is the best to be had for the money.

Don't buy one without KNOWING its repair and maintenance history. That
data is on line for M-B dealers.
