Default CONSIDERING a 2005 ML500

I am looking to get rid of awfull winter car (1995 GMC Jimmy SLT 80,000 Miles) and purchase my neighbors 2005 Mercedes ML500. It is in mint condition becasue she is the wife of a Doctor and they travel a lot and the car does not get used. It has only 22,000 miles on it and is in mint condition. She sells off her car every 4 years or so(usually a BMW, Mercedes, Lexus or Porsche SUV) and she is looking to get rid of it soon. I ahve never owned a MB SUV before and have actually never even drove one but rode in one and I do like them. Are they high maintence? What are some common problems? Also what would be the price I would have to pay for her 2005 ML500 With 22k on it and every option imaginable on it?(INCLUDING TV'S IN THE REAR HEADREST)

Last year of Model 163...pretty car. No...TV headrest is not an option on this car. You could get an aftermarket one installed. It's a very reliable car...I like it...

take care,

Not really...they pretty much got rid of majority of the "BUGS", unlike the 98 and 99 ML's. I would get those...my advice ML 2001-2005 are beautiful!!! I have a 2006 ML350, and I like the 05's better.

take care,
