Bought this car in 95 from my sister in law. Loved everything about it. Gave it to my son for his move to Seattle (from Denver}. I now has 195,000 miles on it and looks and runs like brand new. What a paint job! I bought a 530i BMW to take it's place. No comparison. The Mercedes has it over the Beemer in all regards (reliability, paint, comfort, prestige). Beemer was the worst car I ever owned, Mercedes the best. Now shopping for the exact same year and model Mercedes for myself.

One of the best cars on the road, IMHO. Love this 2.5 Turbo Diesel!!! Solid build. Durable engine, and nice controlled ride and handling. Why buy a new car? This one is also easy to maintain and work on.

This is a Tank , nothing more nothing less - It was $55,000 new in 1991 M103 Engine 3.1 Litre 6 cylinder Straight 6 Gas automobile. Fuel injected , W126 one ECU - no new type tech stuff... just Air Bags in those days and ABS.. This is a great car - no good in SNOW without Snow tires... The car never dies Period. I have 185,000 miles on it. Even the doors feel like doors... I have had many Jaguars and I am not convinced this is and was a Better car when it was New, compared to the XJ6 and XJ12 I used to swear by.. Sorry Limeys... the Germans out did you back then. I have to see probably the suspension is ahead of its time...open your eyes and look at the linkage for the suspension... Ahead of its time !! I wish they still made this NEW but those days are over and its a Sunday Driver for me ! Wife hates it !! so thats a plus...She has a toyota... .Oh you can get 560 SEL but its an 8 cylinder longer wheel base.. VERY hard to find here in NY. This is not for high techies...this is now for Collectors and Sunday Driver type car... put me back into a Time machine and I would trade alot to be back in the showroom and BUY or Lease this car. The Jaguar would never last this long...mine never did and I was Brain washed to be sure.. The Germans WIN !!
