The parts are going to be available for many many years. Obviously being a used vehicle out of warranty will affect maintenance costs more than anything else, but you won't have any problems as far as parts go, and Mercedes dealers will continue servicing their vehicles long after they discontinue a model. Contact a local dealer and ask them directly about the model you're interested in, they may suggest a maintenance plan for it.
