You are right in these cars are starting to age as daily runners, but many are still used each and every day with few issues, if any. The challenge is looking for a good one, yes they are cheap to buy, but these were a luxury car in their day so as I always say, you may get a beautiful looking car for £500 or so with no rust, but you will need to budget upwards of £1,000 in some cases to get that cheap buy up to top spec.

Merc may still be around, as for the 75 or ZT they spares market and technical support is still very much alive, so that shouldn't be an issue.
