Hello Folks
Time to replace vehicle and I was contemplating with an idea to buy Used Mercedes - . I shortlisted Mercedes-Benz R-Class R350 . I know Merc is well known for its quality but can someone suggest how it is in terms of Maintenance ?
Is it too expensive . Am I looking at a BIG difference in price in comparison to Japanese / American cars .
Thanks
NB
I agree with the previous post. It is fun to drive. I bought a GLK about a year back and have had a couple of trips to the service centre under warranty. The maintenance changes without warranty will pile up easily and are way more than other non luxury brands.
I was initially in market to buy a 4 year old R class with 2 years extended warranty, but later went on to buy a 1 year old GLK class. Am glad I did that, because I would not be too comfortable driving these vehicles without a warranty considering the upkeep costs.
Hi friends,
What are your suggestions on make and model (with 23-30 k, price range) to go for if one is intending to get in to a used luxury car?

A Lexus or Acura is probably your best bet for reliability.

You should be able to get a 3 year old (returned from lease) with extended warranty C class for that budget.
Hi folks,
Which can be a better choice or sensible choice and easy on maintenance (Less expensive)from amongst the three BMW/MERCEDES/LEXUS?
