Introduction

Wife purchased this car as having 3 child and wanted first luxury car for the whole family. Beautiful style, v8 power and smooth ride not enough to make up for the constant repairs and spotty reliability. I`d trade it back in if the resale wasn`t so bad.

Why the 2006 Mercedes-Benz R-Class?

Why Not the 2006 Mercedes-Benz R-Class?

Reliability & durability

Very high maintenance poor reliability.

Dealer practices

Mercedes-Benz are snobs and worst consumer service ever. Worse than walmart or canadian tire.

Depreciation

Heavy depriation even after 6 years. No one wants to pay for the repairs and dealership won`t take as trades.

Warranty, maintenance cost

Dealership oil changes and maintenance ridiculous.

Feature availability

Very expensive car lacking features. Seats not real leather, no sunroof, no full sized spare, warranty too short.
