wow there's a thread for MB
 wanna ask whether it's advisable to drive CDi for daily usage? it's a E270 CDi W211. If ok, will import one, but I heard that diesel in Malaysia is very bad, only suitable for 4x4 or heavy duty vehicles.. any opinion on AMGs? test driven a S55 AMG. Deafening engine notes but the maintenance cost  |

QUOTE(AmenoJaku @ May 11 2014, 12:02 PM) Refer post #915, #922, #923. Daily route should be --> after roundabout then got kesas highway. After kesas want go uphill to subang, very jam that path. When want to go home , the path to the kesas also jam.Daily drive no problem. Unless your daily route is 100% city jam. Injectors replacement is cheap anyways.  I think it's okay like this? I referred the post you stated. Looks like the maintenance fees depend on how I drive? |

QUOTE(zenix @ Jan 8 2015, 08:25 AM) the other camp says they like it because it is based on the w124 which was a brilliant car but prefer to but a SY because it is newer than getting an 80's merc which would have alot of hidden problems or been thru an accident 80's Merc as in W123 or W124? Mind you Merc that were built back then were mostly over engineered. Reliability is top notch. |

QUOTE(zenix @ Jan 8 2015, 06:52 PM) engineering is rock solid but parts age Still you can't compare a Kimchi with the mighty German right? If worrying about parts being expensive than Merc is not the right brand for you  |
