These savings and proper vehicle care with get you added value out of your Mercedes Benz. Mercedes Benz are built with quality in mind and a designed to be serviced for many years after initial purchase. Even models from the early 20th century still have most parts available though Mercedes Benz. With the proper care 200K is what we consider to be proper service life.


Over the course of 200K miles or 14 years (14K miles per year) you can choose to own one Mercedes Benz or two. Many people think their car is ready for trade in at 100K miles but that is not true. Mercedes Benz are well built cars and their powertrains are very strong, despite some rust and electrical issues in the late 1990s and early 2000s they will keep going. The breakdown below will show you how keeping your car will save you an estimated $30,000 over a 14 year period.
