Considering buying a 2010 s class 550s, need advice

I currently own a 2012 cls550 and have had positive experiences so far. This however is 102,000 miles s class. Would you recommend such a high mileage s class? I fear the cost of replacing these expensive parts. Guess I would like to hear some reviews with others experiences with this car with high mileage? Thanks.

In a word NO.

If you are considering one with that many miles You better be prepared for certain repairs that you have money set aside for or can do yourself if you are capable. A third party warranty is possible but will be pricey. I have a 2010. My warrenty has paid out about $5000 so far and I paid $3000 for it. Money well spent and all my repairs were at an MB dealer.
