I was a huge MB fan, but over the years most German cars have lost their reliability. Stay away from Volvo "money pits," and BMW's are known for electrical problems.
Stay away from Chrysler, Jeep and Cadillac.

I will say the car market has changed dramatically since the 80s and 90s. Most vehicles are reliable to a point provided you keep up with maintenance; however, there are quirks to each brand. Hyundai is a lot more reliable now, but they had a terrible engine design where one of the bearings caused the engine block to malfunction and require a complete replacement.
Cadillac is unreliable.. period, unless you buy Brand New and trade it in within 50k-100k miles. The engines are usually very complex and certainly unique to Cadillac is how they place engine components over other components (requiring an engine drop for simple servicing); plus the whole air equipped suspension that wears out around 60k miles (min $4000 in parts and then add repair costs). Granted Cadillac still is the most comfortable car I've ever driven.
Another good friend of mine has an older Jeep Liberty and is having a horrific time with the damn thing to the point where he has to buy another vehicle.
By Base model were you referring to the 4 cylinder or the 6 cylinder non-4x4 model?
