1983 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 380SEC 3.8 Litre V8 from North America
Summary:
Awesome in the curves at 80 mph for its age
Faults:
The front end is shaking, but I think it is due to warped rotors. Other than that I have had no significant problems.
General Comments:
This car is a dream. I drove 350 miles to buy it. I was amazed when I got there that everything worked including the air and the infamous seatbelt arm. I drove this car from Albequerqie, NM to El Paso, TX at speeds in excess of 80 MPH with the air running full blast. When I got back home I did a little small stuff, like light bulbs, oil, and tire rotation. Since then it has been my every day driver and has given me no problems.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
