E55 2006 / CLS55 / S450 / Jag XKR2011
I have owned my 06 E55 for almost 9 years and still love it everyday drive. I love it so much and bought a CLS55 3 years ago. Both great car.
E55 only did water pump, CPS as repair. The rest as spark plugs, rotors/brake, tires, oil, filter, alignment, battery, are all part of maintenance you need in all cars.
The only complain I have is Pano-roof. When the surface is not flat and turning, it makes squeeze sound like the roof is flexing. Specially after coil-over car became stiffer.
I highly suggest don't get a Pano E55. It's also increase 80Lbs weight compare to regular sun-roof.
