Purchased this 1999 Mercedes Benz 320 with very low mileage - it had been in an accident but otherwise was in good repair. I bought an extended warranty which was well worth the price. Didn't have as much luck with Mercedes dealership repair shop - they kept trying to sell me a new car rather than repairing the one I had. The car is now 19 years old - body style is still current; interior is comfortable but doesn't have the 'technology' of today's cars. All electronics work including the NOAA weather radio station when in 4X4 mode, the 12-CD player and sun/moon roof. The vehicle is on a 'truck chassis' and I do use it as a truck - affectionately called my Ghetto Benz because the body has seen some wear. The only complaint(s) I have are the low gas mileage; the cost of repairs (if you use original parts); and the mechanism for folding down the rear seats - requires coordination and strength - hopefully more recent vehicles have new mechanism. Overall I was happy with my purchase. Still has low mileage and is available for sale to someone that wants a safe first car for their inexperienced driver.

I traded my BRAND NEW JGCL with 16K miles on it due to numerous problems. Got the '99 ML320 for an excellent price with under 42K miles, and I am not looking back. The car handles well, and is excellent in wintery weather/ice. Acceleration is good (especially in highway traffic), and my choc lab LOVES this car - no more lurching off the back seat when I drive off due to excellent stability! Just to be safe, bought an extended warranty for an additional 36k miles - have not had to use it yet, so maybe I wasted my money on that. Overall, an excellent buy. Now, I just have to convince my family to bury me in it when the time comes!

My wife's car. Wonderful for her - sits high with great visability & comfort. The AWD is supurb here in Denver - great in snow and it doesn't eat up tires as I feared it would (we get 40K miles per set). Gets only 20 MPG on highway at 75. (I don't even try to determine our mileage in the city!) Reliability has been better than some other owners reported: Replaced air mass sensor (expensive!) at 55K miles (it caused transmission to shift late or not at all). Replaced front brakes at 40K and 73K; rear brakes at 73K. Brakes/rotors are expensive, but very, very easy for a do-it-yourself project. (Brake parts for four wheels cost me about $350.) Transmission can't be serviced by non-MB shop.

This car is amazing. It's not the fastest thing on the road by far, but it is a tank in the snow. Nothing will stop it and we live in Minnesota. I've had Explorers and Expeditions, Blazers, etc, but nothing comes close to the ML in the snow. Also, everything still works on it. I bought the car 3 years ago with 220000 on it. I knew I had something special when, not only did the rear wiper blade work, but so did the rear washer! The stereo is clear and loud too ... Great winter car for the money.
