The saying 'it treats you as good as you treat it' especially applies to older Mercedes.

wonder how that 5V head V8 sounds... the most recent 4.2's sounded great (when working)
I thought only Ferrari did a 5v head on their 355's !

I don't know if audi shared the transmission between the two engines but he's paired up the 1.5T transmission to the v8...

Park in the sun, all the plastics turn gray and cracks, leather shrinks. Getting to the engine is rear clam off. Getting to the rad, ac, wipers, brake stuff, front clam off. It has stupid tire sizes that no one stocks. ECU that can randomly forget if the car is AT or MT. Stock engine tune that is so bad that it knocks and pings on 94. Rev-hang and slow throttle response. Superchargers that grenade. The list goes on. It is outclassed specs wise by everything else in the same category and price range.
