Is 2005 S-class worth buying?

[Jamessoh]

what about 2006 ls460? Is it a good car still after 5yrs?

Toyota parts so should be much cheaper than merc or bmw.

My ex-boss merz of this series always go workshop till he fed-up. He says much worst than the previous series. The series after this is much better apparently.

From what I have heard, I think its best fo avoid 2nd hand BMWs, esp those after 5yrs as its not very reliable.

 

I bought my 5 yrs old E60 @ 55K mileage and it's now 7th years old clocked almost 80K now, not much problem. Maybe I'm lucky, but usually higher mileage equate to higher wear & tear. Intend to drive it till 10th years if it permits coz my depreciation each year only $8K and will collect $30K+ PARF @ 10th yr mark. In 3yrs time, I go for 2nd hand F10 which is costly now @ >$200K, will pick up when the huge initial depreciation is absorbed.

I'm driving a company 5 series, first driven by boss then by other executives before me. Is this considered 2nd hand BMW?

 

The car is more than 5 years old but, not only it does not give any trouble, it is also alot cheaper to maintain and run as compared to my personal car, a Subaru.
