As I said elsewhere, 🖕 BMW
Not like I'd ever own their overpriced garbage in the first place. I've worked on them (since the 70's), they're over-hyped trash from a durability standpoint. And how they put things together makes maintenance a nightmare.
They could learn a lot from Japan, who's worst brands are far better
Any observations on Mercedes and Audi?
Allegorical, but I have 2008 Mercedes C300 (W204). I purchased it in 2017 with 90k miles and I'm currently at 190k. It's still my daily driver and overall I remain pretty happy with it.
The tl;dr of this car has been toyota-like reliability with maintenance/repairs being uncommon but more costly when they need to be done. I wouldn't assume my experience is indicative of Mercedes overall.
I'm not a mechanic but I am an engineering technician and test driver in automotive T&V
I’ve also heard stories of a Mercedes giving you 1 000 000 km (or 1 Gm) as long as you take good care of it.
All the luxury German brands are great cars until the warranty runs out.
After that, the car will last as long as your bank account can hold a comma.
The Germans can build motors that will go for a million miles, but they can't connect 2 wires together without causing the entire vehicle to become a rolling dumpster fire. The more tech and the more options on your German vehicle, the more you are asking for pain.
