Hi scotty love your videos , I have a question I'm looking at a 2012 Mercedes s500 are they any good or the are a money pit , thanks
Do not buy it! These are all overengineered German machines full of technology and will cost a small fortune every time something breaks or needs repair. Also, companies like Mercedes know the vast majority of people lease their vehicles so they cram a lot of technology and features into their vehicles so the lessee will continue staying with them as well as get new lessees. They are not on the business of making vehicles that will last a long time without breaking (like a Toyota or Lexus). Also, good luck finding a competent mechanic that can work on those vehicles (especially with all the electronics) - if you find one they will cost more - and if you have to go to the dealer the y will definitely charge an arm and a leg.
Thanks for the answer definitely will not be looking at it anymore
Well, that's easy to answer:
IT'S A MONEY PIT!!
Every modern Mercedes-Benz is an endless money pit nowadays. If you want an s class where they don't break all the time, get one from the 80s and below cuz, those were solid built, but the newer ones are super expensive to repair and maintain and they break more often.
