Mercedes-Benz W220 S320: 20 years later

Here’s my take about this run of the mill S320 from 2000. We’ll look at the standard equipment, optional extras and see how it will drive.

Shameful erratum:
4:56
The S65 displacement is 6.0L!!!
Nasty-nasty type-o

I’ve had a 2001 s500 for six years now and spent about £1000 on repairs over that time. Simply the best ride quality and comfortable car I’ve ever driven. She’ll be with me till the end!

Such a calm review on one of the best S klasses, the W220, great selection on the music too!

If you have a lift and a basic set of tools and original diagnosis, you will be able to fix 80% of the stuff on this car on your own. I even did repair the corosion, just sanded it down and applied premixed spray paint, clear coat and then a nice polish with a microfiber. It is noticable but if you really look into it. I got the 2002 S320 version as well, i have LPG installed and it makes way cheaper and Euro 4 instead of Euro 3. Still in Serbia they are taxed like craizy. I paid 800EUR for it, and paid 900EUR for registration. 200EUR for original DAS diagnosis, 300EUR for new airmatic pump, 50EUR of paint supplies, 300eur for service and sparkplugs. For less then 3000 i am driving in a very very nice car for very little money. Parking in city is impossible tho

I love the pre-facelift W220 and those wheels I own a W221 myself.

[willvandeusen]

Wow I had no idea they offered a w220 with cloth seats, amazing

[ukwan]

Everyone was shitting on the W140 when the electric wiring loom issues first came along and nobody valued them. Time is a good healer and nostalgia takes over, people will value the W220 again one day don't sell yours.

It would be cool if you made an ownership update!
