well when you are doing about 120lm and it is very hard to avoid stone or any thing on the road unless you have to drive at 60 in a 100 or 30 in a 50, which is inposable in a e60.
Not even my smart I can drive a low speed.
tyre cost me $1850 for a new 1 which is ver cheep

MB old or new, I would never consider. A test drive is all I would go for.

But a brake failure that's dangerous. What exactly happen?
Below is my ordeal of owning a W211 :

On some day in 2006 , I drove my 2003 E-class right from the parking space , suddenly the alarm sounded like hell and computer said " BRAKE FAILURE, PROLONG THE BRAKING DISTANCE" , then I kicked down the brake pedal and felt only 20% of braking power left. I almost hit a car in front of me. This is too much to endure any more!! :thumbsdown:

I went to MB Dealer immediately and without hesitation they replaced a brand new SBC ( Sensortronic Brake Control) for free even my 2-year warranty is expired. To my surprise, this NOTORIOUS SBC has 10-year of warranty offered by MB since it's a defective design. MB discontinued to produce SBC after 2006 just in order to keep all the MB owner alive.
