Re: Opinions on this W210 web site

I stumbled across this web site a few days ago. The site creator has some great information there, but the section that lists "common problems" IMO make the W210 sound like junk. It almost sounds as if all of the cars will have these issues and you can expect to fix them during your ownership of the car. The one in particular is the one about the head gasket on the 1996-1997 E320 with the inline 6 engine. It says you can pretty much expect to change the head gasket every 70,000-100,000 miles. Does anyone find this to be true?

I have a 2001 W210 V-8 and haven't expereinced any of those issues (yet), except the sunroof rattle.
