Hi! Ok, so I need some advice. I currently drive an old Toyota, and it has just about seen it's last days. It has been very reliable, and being the type of person who knows next to nothing about cars, it has served me well. However, it is such a boring car. I am now in the market for a new (used) car, and am really interested in a Mercedes. Now, I am a college student and am on a very strict budget of $5000 or less. Is a Benz practical for someone like me? I've read that old Benz's are very reliable, but is this true? I will be driving it quite a bit, in excess of 200-300 miles per week. Am I experiencing wishful thinking? Would I be better off with a boring Honda?
