I bought a 940gle 9 years ago, not knowing anything about their reliability or quality, and sold it 5 years later because I thought it needed too much work to keep it going( big regret!).
I have very little money to spend on maintenance, but I do my best.
My new 940gle has 142000 on the clock, and I will try to keep it going regardless of cost, as the reliability and build quality are just phenomenal!
It sailed through two MOT's with no work.
Paintwork and general appearance are amazing for a 19-year old car(the silver sand metallic seems a very durable paint job!).
I wonder if this is the end of being able to buy good quality cars that are 18- plus years old, as modern cars seem to be throwaway items( wonder how much wear stop-start technology puts on an engine?).
I hope to get 20 more years out of mine!
