Hi Im new here and Im planning on buying a ML320 model from 2002-2004 line up.

And I want to know are there any serious fabric issues with those cars? engine,electrical,body etc..??

When Im buying a used one what should I look at first in those models, actually I need to know everything because Im a total noobcake at these cars, all I know that people say "the car sucks!"

plz help. tnx..

 

get under 40k miles and take it to the mercedes shop for complete check under the warranty. before u buy take it to the shop for complete check. find a good mechanic after u buy for later work problem do not let the mercedes dealere do ur brakes at $1200 ask before any work is done check around for price and correct solutions to problems.

 

^ no offence but that didnt help me anything I need some help from a person that is more expierienced with those cars, and to add some info Im planning to import the car from US.

 

Inport car from US to where? or did I miss something.

It has been my experience that the earlier MLs tend to have lots of little minor issues that are more of an hassle then a real expense. Yes the brake jobs are pricy but as said before take it to a dealer too look at.

FYI in 2003 the routine maintenance was included so most people did it. Why not it was free.

The later ML350s were put together much better (my opinion). Our boys (& girls) in Alabama realy have it right now. They are putting out much higher quality than in the early 2000's

 

US-Europ (Poland) I have many dealers here if somtn happaen, but thats not the problem, I just want a reliable car and I want it to be a mercedes ML
