But '03 S5? Yes, go for the S.

I'd go for any '00+ S500 over the 745!

Mercedes Benz E350 CDi Blue Efficiency
There is no contest - I have had a 745Li 2003, riddled with problems, spent a total of 9 weeks in the garage in 11 months - too complicated, rushed to the market without due diligence, sold it and bought an S500L '01, never looked back.
