Various Topics on Mercedes-Benz

..n ..

I'm trying to help my son get his first car.
He's found a '92 300e (134,000)for $2500 US.
The car is supposed to be in good shape. I
haven't driven the 30 minutes to look at it yet.
Anyway, I'm a volvo guy but I've got nothing
against MB. My only concern was the cost of
upkeep and repair of an MB. Should we expect
it to be more than other cars? Are parts
crazy expensive? I'm guessing there are
fewer after market parts than one might find
for a Honda, Toyota, Nissan etc.

Any insight would be helpful

Thanks
