Gettin the itch !!!!

Gettin the itch for a new car! I have been driving a 93 140 for the last 3 years . The car still looks and runs well but is starting to get a little long in the tooth ! I did not pay much for the car and most of the money I spent on it was personal dress up stuff ! Been looking around on the web and I have seen some really nice 04 models with not a lot miles and neat as a pin! I have to be honest and say my 140 have been very good to me! So what can you folks here tell me about the 04 track record? Or should I just keep my 140? Thanks

Hey Warren ! Thanks for the reply and the info ! The cars for me are like going from the Mayflower to a Starship!!! What can you tell me about the 4matic cars ? I saw a video on the operation and looked pretty impressive but also very complicated! Looks to me if something went south it could mean big trouble and lighting up of your wallet! Something I might want to avoid? Are some years better or worse than others? Thanks again for the reply .

Been reading where peeps say the suspension systems of these car are very problematic ! and when they take a dump they also break the bank! I guess the 140 is old school suspension ! I would really hate to buy a money pit cuz I might not have enough to fill it up!
