calling all CL / S600L bi turbo owners!

[NST]

I'm looking at these and thinking about possibly buying one..
i want to know how much it will cost to service and run @ 10-12K year.

i'm used to the servicing and maintenance on my XK with dealer prices so can I afford to run a bi turbo v12?

MPG - 15mpg around town to 20mpg on runs?

how much are brakes and pads all round?
how much are the various services?
Merc warranty? a must? how much is that to renew each year?
how good is the merc warranty?

anything to look out for? any particular model years better than others?

Does the CL600 biturbo cost the same to service?

i'd love a S65/CL65 but these are much more expensive and quite rare to find.

any help greatfull!

hi

Thanks for the replies, hopefully something will turn up on the Benz site in the near future. The service contract seems like a good idea especially as the car will be used daily.

cheers
