Good morning,
When I was first looking at the W211 E55's, I was warned by the service writers and an indie to stay away from the '03 models. Too many issues with all the new electronics. There also seem to be an unusual number of TSB's on this first year. That being said, you may have found one that has little to no issues. A PPI would be in order.
I ended up with the '02 E55. If I were to move up to the W211, I'd go for the '05 or '06.
Good luck and let us know how your search turns out.
