| RE: 1997 e420 I had a couple tiny cracks in the dash, but they were up between the windshield and the defroster opening - nothing like the airbag-area cracks I read about. As to the car, it was, for me anyway, an ultimate cruiser! It would just go and go and go, at speed, in style and comfort - yet you still felt like you were at the controls of a powerful machine. If a guy doesn't use the cruise control, you can easily and effortlessly find yourself going way past the speed limit. Besides brakes & oil & filters, the only thng ever done mechanically to that car was a serpentine belt at 74,000 miles, so it was also great in that area. The rust and dash board cracks can be problems, but otherwise a totally outstanding vehicle - in my opinion.
