185k miles on my last Benz. I think. Maybe. It's stupid screen where the odometer readout is shown died, though so it could be totally more than that. It's at least that many miles... probably more like 200k. That should be hardly anything for a Benz, but it's lived a rough life and needs loads of work now, so I threw it away and got a new one.
And by 'threw away', I mean I gave it to my wife because she announced that I shall do so and who am I to disobey?!
See I never could see the appeal of benz. I like the idea and I hear they are reliable but never could see the appeal in the design style.
Me neither, until I got one.
They sure are kind of fugly these days most of the time though, and have been for at least a couple decades now, with a few noteworthy exceptions.
There are a few I think look good, but most of them I'll pass. Honestly I didn't even like BMWs all that much until I bought one.
