E39 is very reliable, more than the later 5 series. It has baby seat anchors.
S-class will be a regret over an E39. My buddy has an S-class and the self leveling system is costing him a lot of grief and $$$. If you want a modern commuter with less electronics, go E39.
I bought mine used with 62k miles on it and it now has 99k+ and I've only had to do oil changes. The oil pan gasket needs replacing now, so I'll probably do that over Christmas break.

I can't find S classes in that price range, but that might be too bulky for me....
E39s ? Are those reliable-ish ? More or less than E42s ? Got anchors for baby seats ? The really modern ones scare me, too many electronic doo-dads to break out of warranty....
