About to buy an S280 2002
Hi guys, newbie from Malaysia here .. never own a mercedes before.

So I'm about to buy my first mercedes, check it out here http://www.mudah.my/2002+Mercedes+Be...n-54439469.htm.

Can you tell me is this a good buy, in terms of reliability, maintenance wise?

I'm going for a test drive tomorrow.. so excited about it yay!

thanks.
