S Classes a better bet with minimum toys and either the 3.2 6 pot or 5 litre V8, i've seen these V12's stripped out in my MB indies workshop, skipfulls of black death filling the rocker covers the like we haven't seen since 70's Fords.

Miles too complicated.

...now, this is my idea of a £3k S-Class.  Straight-six as used in tens of thousands of C- and E-classes, and steel wheels with trimz :)  They spoil the ad a little by declaring that this stunning Hyundai is professionally valeted, but I'd still choose this over the V-12 any day.

Is it a liability?

He even admits in the advert it would break for more and I can see that easily, so run it for 3 years / 18 months / 6 months / until next Tuesday, whenever it breaks down and get the socket set out.

All those computers are full of magic and fairy dust so they'll bring in a far bit on ebay to other owners facing up to the fact they bought a liability. Engine has to be four figures, you pay half that for a Ford petrol lump out of a Focus which is about as rare as a Tesco Extra. Wheels are a bit shit but they're genuine at least. Heated leather has to be £500 all in.

This S600 was 100,000 quid new. It could now be yours for £2680 althought I recon you'd need deep pockets and big plums to take it on. Or big pockets and deep plums, either way.

The one thing the seller doesn't mention is the suspension, it'll be air which is unreliable and expensive or the optional ABC hydraulic which is more unreliable and more expensive.

These look like any old boring Mid 90's C-Class but rather than a 2.2 litre diesel motor or a 1.8 pez this has a 4.3 amg tuned v8. 300bhp and sub 6 seconds 0-60 but it looks like you're on the way to the garden centre to buy some compost or plastic meerkats.

This one's £2500, which is quite tempting.

I'm guessing the Corolla estate was designed at 4.55 pm on a Friday.
