I think suspension parts are the most expensive because it happens almost all the time.
Especially front suspension parts.that is the price we pay for all that turning advantage. grin
For engine replacement,most mercs engine and transmission hardly fail but when they do,it is usually expensive,especially forced induction,small displacement but high bhp output ones.
Most of Merc big engines(except AMGs) are often relatively affordable since it hasn't got demand(they hardly fail/get destroyed beyond repair)
However for the seven gear auto Merc transmissions,when they fail,it cost a lot to replace them as compared to the 5 speed counterparts and are more prone to failure!
That's my 2 cents.

Nah, that's what you pay because...Mercedes. An E46 turns better but isn't anywhere near that expensive.

I'm not a very good driver like most of my oga dem here. Naturally, It takes me time to get used to a new vehicle (phobia maybe). Only one vehicle i feel comfortable driving above 120 km. My old boy's tested and trusted tundra, remember when i blew the radiator around Ikom-Obubra highway.

My brother, speed sweet, until kasala burst
