Air suspension on a used car, should I run or is it fine?

[coleturner]

I'm looking at a used SUV with air suspension and I keep getting warned off it by people who've never owned one. Their argument is always the same, it's expensive when it breaks, so why risk it. But the comfort on offer is genuinely appealing and I do a lot of long drives. I found a Useful guide to the benefits of car air suspension in Dubai while trying to weigh it up, which at least explained what you're actually getting for the risk, but I'd rather hear from people with real experience. Has anyone owned an air suspension car for several years here and had it be reliable, or is failure basically inevitable? And when it does fail, is it always a huge bill or are there smaller fixes depending on what's gone wrong?
