W124 OM606 :-)
W140 or W220 or maybe W221

Hello,

I am a new member here, i drive a w124 which was modified a little bit. OM606 engine (some parts was changed), new suspension and also different gear ratio. The car is normal sedan version with about 320hp. It is my daily driver.
I am thinking about my next benz, and i don't know the right solution.
I am 183cm not to tall, but once i sat in a S320 w140 it fit me really well.
I do not have any experience with the next gen. w220 and w221.

Which would be the best?

W140 are to old. I would take one for nostalgia but not everyday. I personally like the w220 and w215. They have enough technology and systems that rival anything today and are quite a bargain for what they are capable of. I had a w221 for a short moment. I don't like the fact I can't work on the car myself. Changing anything requires a trip to the dealer. Test drive all models though and pick what you love. To each his own.
