Impertinently overpriced while still using a modified W140 chassis, it was a big failure which was- among other factors- one of the reasons for MB to cut thousands of jobs during the last years. Technically, it was a well-engineered and well-made car, of course (with only 2100 or so made since 2002, the assembly-workers did have a lot of time to get things right during the process of assembly).
