Hi. A friend of mine has an opportunity to join up with someone to run a chauffeur business. He's a Jag man normally but has decided he should probably get a Merc for the reliability.
What do we think would be the best model for him? He is thinking something maybe 5 yrs old, classy but reliable. I see a lot of S class 320CDI's as hire cars. Are these good to run? Or would an E class be cheaper or more practical.
Many thanks for any suggestions!
(And if anyone can recommend a good place to get a suitable used Merc that'd be great too.)
