worth keeping 2004 E 320?
 

Hi, all. :)
My lease is about to end for 2004 E320. I leased with premium option so that it pretty much have everything, sports seat, nav, side blind, etc. As I am in a new market for another MB, I noticed that the option is not quite as full as this one, and it cost to lease is a lot more to get similar option to it. The salesperson says I am getting a better engine. As I drive local most of the time, I don't need any more horsepower.
So my question is, "Is 2004 E classworth buying?" The MB financial is giving actually a good deal to buy it off by giving decent amount of cash allowance.
If I buy this, do you think I will have alot of trip to theservice after the warranty is over?
I ask this question because everyone says 2001 ML class is piece of **** and I happened to own one.:(and I do make a occasionally trip to service to repair this and that which should not be fixed that often (like those thing that doesn't happened to Japanese cars).

I would like to get your opinions. Thanks in advance.
