Reliable SUV. Strong and nice driving in mountains

I been driving this SUV since I bought in 2000. Very reliable smooth and safe to drive. Maintenances are reasonable and manageable. Had 178k now and still runs smoothly. Will keep the car until it dies

Best used car ive ever bought!

Upon a trip home to sc from west tx, id initially wanted a domestic suv (expedition,ect) but after a short test drive of the 2000 ml320 i quickly changed my mind! As with any used car i was very reluctant to immediately take off on the 1200 mile trip back to texas, not knowing if it could be trusted. Being lucky in speaking to its prior (& only) owner,i felt assured. It handled the trip great with no problems & i fell in love with it! Ive been a longhaul truckdriver for over 20yrs & this is the only vehicle that i really had to make adjustments in getting used to driving it & its effects on me to. What i mean is, it was so quiet,comfortable, and smooth, id never encountered one like it & wasnt used to it, so i drove with the a/c on or the window cracked so i wouldnt get too sleepy. So, IM SOLD! i 100% love this car & my next one will be the same & while i could go on & on about its options (which are plenty) just the constant AWD & knowing it can get me out of a jam or a possibly threatening scenario in the middle of nowhere is enough for me! Thanks Mercedes! from a converted,once hardcore,v8 gearhead.

Perfect

Bought it from original owner who owned it for 18 years. Car still looks great and handles like a Benz should. With 163k and drives like a dream even on NYC rough roads. Still feels good driving a Benz.

You won't find a safer, cleaner used MB SUV!

We maintain our vehicles to keep them a long time. If taken care of like my wife has since we bought it new this gem easily has another 200K miles! This was our first Mercedes; 3 since then (2 for daughters). Picking up our 5th one today-yes another Mercedes SUV.

Most fun SUV I've ever owned, performs great!

It's a classy ride, looks good runs and performs great with many options such as heated seats, folding mirrors, rear view camera, chrome rims, Kenwood sound system, moon roof and more.

Best SUV I have owned

The ML320 is simple technology and a 4 x 4 system that works. It runs circles around the 2007 Mercury Mariner we have. Maintenance is simple. I have no less than six different drivers using this vehicle and they all love it.

Excellent Manners both on and off road

Rides well, very capable, well designed, reliable. Easy to get in and out of with a good hip height for an average person. Heated seats make early morning/late night rides during the winter enjoyable. The low hood means you can easily see where the edges of your vehicle are when you're off-roading and need to know where to place your wheels. Half-shaft design means that your driveshaft isn't hanging out in a place easily damaged. It isn't stand-out in design but the materials are good. Fit and finish isn't as tight as you'd expect for a Mercedes but everything just keeps working. My biggest complaint is that the vehicle uses too much fuel, and the engine bay is very tight- making do-it-yourself repairs more time consuming (changing plugs, belts, pumps, etc). The tires are an abnormal size and the wheel lug spacing is abnormal as well making replacement more costly. AWD is designed so that it's only on when there's a slip sensed, the majority of the time you'll be pushed along using the rear wheels- transition is fairly seamless though. On road it's as quiet as you'd expect for a vehicle from the late 90's, early 2000's. Not at the level of soundproofing used in current generation vehicles, but conversations aren't difficult. Fuel economy (on recommended/required premium grade) isn't any better or worse than a vehicle from this period.
