Just thought I chime in with a big hello to all Benz owners.
This is my first Benz and loving it. I really got a steal here. 18K for a super mint 00 S430 with 45K on the ode. This car practically sat in a garage for the last 3yrs and only rolled 5K. Unfortunately the previous owner fell ill and could not keep up the payments and that was my gain. I do wish him well. This brings me here. Like I said this car is very difficult to the unknown eye to be distinguished between a newer 05. It almost looks like no one ever sat in the rear seat. I'm going over a few things like fluid flushes, filter etc.
