We're a year away from replacing the x5, but my wife and I started talking about what she'd want over the weekend so I've been obsessively car shopping ever since. For reference, the x5 is a 2011 and this weekend crossed 150k. It's been great and done exactly what we needed it to. My wife expects to keep it another 12-15 months and would love to hit 200k in it. She's right, of course, but it hasn't stopped me from FC'ing my future.
I found this today and *really* like it. I sent it to my wife and she said "a year too soon".... we'll just see about that... :

The selling dealer actually bought it on BAT for $56k in September.

I would have liked it even more at that price and in Pawlings, where I could have driven up to check it out.
Anyway, that is a round about way of asking if anyone has any first hand/second hand knowledge of MB products, any good reference sites on E class wagons, the differences among generations, major issues, etc. What are the good MB message boards so I can learn some more about what to look for and what to avoid.
I'd love to get one last big v8 wagon before they're dead and gone.
