R 129 forum

Hey guys, I've been driving an 03 Volvo S60 base with the 5-speed for a couple of years now at around 35, miles a year and it's getting far enough along in its life that I'm starting to lose a little trust. I'm also just getting a bit bored. I drive across the Causeway to New Orleans every day for school so 50 miles of my 85 mile commute is 65mph and straight as an arrow, so the comfort of the Volvo has been appreciated and I'm not sure I could endure much worse. My first car was a 95 E Diesel with over k miles and it was still amazingly solid, so I have a bit of a soft spot for that era of Mercedes. A manual is a must for me, a convertible is nice for a couple months, and I imagine it'll be quite comfy. So what do I need to look out for? Is this as cool as I think it is? Does anyone have any experience with putting a lot of miles on an R? I'm definitely not afraid of continually tinkering but I'd rather not have to worry about anything being too much of an undertaking or prohibitively expensive. Let's see what the hive says. IIRC, that era of Mercedes was one of the most over-engineered, over-built cars ever built. If you avoid the limited-run stuff like V12 AMG models, they are near indestructible. My guess is that electronic stuff is the biggest problem, and expensive to fix.
