ISTR that the 350 doesn't have the air suspension that E&AC Doc refers to.
Another problem i've heard about is that baffles in the fuel tank can come loose, its a major dismantling operation to remove and replace the tank, circa £3k were the figures bandied about.
You need to do lots of research, could start with the 2 specialist MB forums not associated with the maker.
£60k cars unfortunately have repair costs to match, and i wouldn't entertain a car of this type unless i had the reasonably local services of one of the excellent make specific indies dotted about the country...main dealer bills are staggering.
If its pretty enough, might a Lexus SC430 be a consideration, going to infinitely less trouble.
