S400 cdi (EU). What to look for?

Hi all, this is my fisrt post.

I currently have in my garage a 2003 S400 CDI that i took home this weekend for a test drive.
Car as 85.000 km on it, complete service book, and came from a mercedes dealer.
I have made around 300km on it and i just love it ( despite its a large limo, and i'm only 33 y.o. )

So, what should i look for on this car?
I've seen on other foruns and on this one that airmatic can be a problem...
Are there any other issues that i should look for also?

Tomorrow i'll take it to my MB service where a know everyone and gonna get opinions there too.

Is this a clever buy or what?

Thanks All

Hi ! That's a great car ,with tons of torque to make you smile ! Very reliable engine as far it's serviced regularly. Chassis although has some weak points, will not trouble you, but instead deliver you confort and safety beyond limits. Considering market prices ..get yourself this bargain :-)
