I think they made a huge leap forward in design with that model.

Unfortunately, this is incorrect. The later model w129 cars are much better and more sought after, though none of them are all that in demand. They made several significant improvements in the '96-later models and they still are not great cars in terms of being trouble-free or cheap to own.
