I can see that this isn't going to end well.

There are lots of cars that are comfortable for the average sized driver, but can be less than easy to get into the drivers seat.
I find the W124 is like this.

Post The economy choice

W210 chassis... perhaps one generation too old for this discussion. Great value and durable. 30-31 MPG on the HWY with @ 25-26 MPG mixed driving is a nod to good engineering and efficiency.

98-2000 E320s with less than 75K miles are more common that you think. For $5K - $8K you can pick up a great value. 2WD or 4Matic... sedan or wagon... diesel or gas... all great choices.

Due to the fact that the 98-2000 pre-facelift models are getting older with higher mileage, they will require a bit of minor maintenance.

My 98 E320 has been sitting for 13 months now. Can't wait to get out of AFG to get back to my sled. I know that I'll have some issues when I put in a new battery etc... part of the deal being deployed.

Long live the W210 pre-facelift E320s. Rock solid.
