I would venture a guess that if it was a loyal Mercedes customer and they leased another car there probably could be some magic in making those mileage penalty dollars disappear.

2004 W211 E55: almost a quarter of a million kilometers... 153K miles. Uses some oil and smokes a bit under hard accelleration. Only problems to date:
3x airmatic shocks
2x engine mountings
supercharger pulley bearing
alternator diode pack
supercharger coolant pump (Johnson replacement doing quite well)
Some of the 469 horses have bolted and not come back but still does 370RWHP which is sufficient.

Just got my 05 with 72k but she's been maintained perfectly and it shows. I'm prepared for whatever hiccups may come though. She can't possibly cost as much as I put into my built turbo Lightning, so I say BRING ON THE REPAIR BILLS! LOL!

'04 E55 w/64k. I took her on a 7k 20 day road trip last summer. Major repair since ownership was fuel sender and pump.

After 40 years of building/driving muscle cars, my now 100,000 mile 2005 E55 is so enjoyable that I'm looking forward to putting on the highest mileage that I've ever clocked.
Now onto the 155,000 mile Mercedes High Mileage Award.

122k miles on my 2004, bought it with 50k in 2010 from the original owner. biggest issues so far have been the Camshaft sensor and making the tires last

I've got 04 and 130 000km -> 80778 miles on it.
My mechanic got 03 and he got 330 000km -> 205052 miles on it and it is still running strong as mine!
