With all due respect, your experience is kinda out of date.

A lot has changed over 20 years. Just as an example, a lot of new Mercedes are now being equipped with Renault engines.

I'd never consider any of the cheap classes. Most of those are not available in the USA where I am anyway.

E or S class only for what I'm talking about. And S are generally too complicated unless you can find one that's been really well kept up.
