Everyone has his (her) own "truth". If it is based on own experienecs then everything is oK, but it is only another opinion. And there is several billion opinions about the same thing ....
I support your idea merc, in the same time I also understand dave. Indeed I read several years ago that Hyundai is on the top of a list where number of defects was analyzed. MB was near the bottom, but do not ask me more, because I forgot all details. Our cars are complicated machines, therefore no wonder that with increased age they are like clock-bombs. It is easy to bo on the top of the above list For Hyundai because of one simple reason:
