What do you think of this 2008 GL320 CDI ?

I am considering this vehicle:

2008 GL320 CDI / Seller is a Non MB Dealer

Dark Blue/ Tan Int
Nav/ rear DVD / backup cam
Looks great
59k miles

Full dealer service history

The following have been replaced:
Susp Air Compressor 6.7k miles
Parking Bulb replaced 12k
Cooling system serviced/checked 12k
Parking Brake Controler 15k
PS Hoses/Lines 17k
o2 sensor 17k
4 new tires and alignment 17k
Fuel pump 18k
Steering gear 20k
Brake pads 25k
Front Struts 43k
Front brake rotors and pads 50k
Ashtray replaced twice over the life of the car

Car was purchased and driven in a densely populated urban area. I suspect it was driven over roads with potholes etc, in a lot of traffic. I have surmised that the previous owner was a smoker.

Price is attractive.

Based on the above, is this a good value or should I view the many repairs as a warning ?

Thanks !

That's a lot of repairs in a very short time. Makes you wonder if it were built on a Friday at 4:30.

Lots of repairs, but that might have been lucky that they all were replaced. What is an "attractive price" to you?
