X5M, CLS55, GLA45, Ultra Classic, V Max, HR Navigator.
2005 with 82,750 on the clock. 2nd owner since 2008, car had 52,000 on it when I bought it. I have replaced the supercharger pulley and upgraded the pump. This car has been very reliable and trouble free, I drive it like it was meant to be driven and spanked a few unsuspecting victims along the way.

2004 - 144k miles. Seems like everything is breaking. The latest stupid thing is the sun visors have delaminated from themselves.
The issue prior to that was the valve stem seals failing on cylinder 1; probably will soon fail on other cylinders.

2004 with 21,946 miles. I'm the original owner although I will add the owner of Mercedes Benz Of Chandler drove the car and he told me that it was a press car (AZ car) so when I ibought it off the showroom floor it had 8184 on the ticker back in Dec 04 so in almost 10yrs later I've only put 13,762 on her.
Only problems with it is trying to get it smogged.

2004 E55 only 15,500 miles so far. have done all fluid change due to its age: tranny, rear end, coolant, etc. my problems have to do with the "srs" codes. may very well have to do with the extensive audio upgrades that was in the car originally that i have dismantled much of. but there is a Bulletin with merc where the steering wheel control module gets "stretched" and that connector or wire loom needs to be extended??? many low and high resistance errors/fault codes, again maybe due to the aftermarket cabling stretching/crimping airbag "wiring", passenger seat controls not working, bought a new door switch and was not the problem so either the motors or again, something got cut/disconnected. all my problems has nothing to do with the "car" itself, but what someone who didnt have a well thought out plan installing an aftermarket dvd (10 screens), sub enclosure that prevented you access to main battery in trunk, cameras x 4, rear view setup inside the rearview mirror and the list goes on........... one may ask: "why the hell you bought the car!!!!" what i felt was a great deal and the low mileage, kleemann package already onboard with headers. i just didnt quite anticipate how extensive the audio equipment was and what a terrible job of the install. work in progress but it drives great!

Mine's a 2004 with 62k miles. I've only owned it since last October, the previous owner was the sales manager at the local MB dealership, so it was meticulously cared for. It does have a few issues, mostly minor:
1. One of the door handles doesn't work with the Keyless GO system.
2. Had to replace the I/C pump
3. The iPOD connection and CD player don't work.
