Look out with V12's !!!! They can have issues with the oilpressure and things like that. When a V12 has driven 175.000km or more it's definitly a no-go. But when it's completely dealer checked you can give it a shot. Most V12's have problems when they reach 175/200K and when the oil goes complete around the engine you are going to pay the car twice! if you know what I mean.

R230 are loyal models never heard of strange issues or manufacture faults or something.

I drove/owned a lot of Benzes that's right. It's my second love next to watches.
