This is a trend that began quite some time ago.

A battery replacement on some Mercedes models can cost up to $800. Attempting it yourself can "brick" the car --- which significantly adds to the final cost.

The only thing luxury Euro has to offer is "prestige" --- which you are free to define as you see fit but resale value certainly isn't it.
