I have had mine for over 2.5 years with out any real problems, it has never let me down!
Had a Merc C class B4 & the quality is very similar!
Have taken it on many long trips down to the Alps & Loire Vally & it makes for a very comfortable long distance cruiser as well as a tow car!

I've had this car for 6 months - lots of long distance driving, a bit of towing. Layout, space, load capacity, comfort, economy good by any standards, excellent for a large 4wd. I love it!
