I have advocated old school Benzes as good cars for young drivers.
A couple of hours ago, our twenty year old got involved in an accident with my lovely old W201. The 190 has rolled its last mile, but the airbag on this nineteen year old machine still worked, and, more imporatantly, my son is just fine.
Cars can be replaced. In an accident, you would rather lose the car than anyone's life. In the old days, Mercedes used the slogan "Engineered like no other car in the world." Based upon the four that we have owned, I have always thought this was more than just hype.
