Need advice in purchasing
Hello guys, I am new to this forum, looking for a good advice, found pretty loaded 2019 W222 S560, with 33,xxx miles, one owner, black on black, exclusive nappa leather, car looks pretty good , what to expect at that mileage? Any problems or issues should I be aware?
I am pretty familiar with Germans cars, owned 4 Audis in the past couple Cayennes, I am pretty handy, acn do a lot of repairs by myself, never owned MB benz, thanks in advance

The W222 is actually a very solid vehicle. If you have had Audis this will be a walk in the park.

W212 FL
It looks a like dream combination of mine . Well, it must have an M176 engine , those look like more refined than my fave M 278 too. Engine mounts and tranny mounts are two common problems with any Mercedes-Benz vehicles aside from W222 V12 variants . It does a costly repair too but that car is pretty low mileage I would not have expected it to happen at this stage
Porsche seem to make reliable cars according to AUTO BILD but I don't remember if that applies to Cayennes
Happy Driving

Find a place to get a pre-inspection so you know what condition is, also review the paperwork for maintenance that was done, and then buy a warranty for sure! If the previous owner did everything on time that is a good sign!

My V-12 powered 222 car has required fresh fluids, 24 spark plugs three times (lots of miles), a water pump, serp belt and idlers (all at once) in 150,000 miles.

Honestly I just have no interest in the V12. There aren’t a lot of them out there, and the ones that are aren’t high mileage so honestly we don’t really have a good handle on what sorts of things can go wrong. It’s also harder to find people who are comfortable working on them because they are so unusual. I’m not “afraid” of it, it’s just a level of “exoticness” I’m not interested in.
