euro delivery

Does anyone know if the 09 gl bluetec will be available for european delivery. If so is this a good idea given domestic discounts on SUV's?

Since they assemble GLs in Vance, AL, I am not sure if they even offer a euro delivery program. Anyone know different?

The diesel in Europe has even less sulphur content than our ULSD. About 6ppm I think versus our 15ppm.

GL 320 CDI
Euro delivery

I wanted to do an Euro delivery for my 2007 CDI and they told me only cars produced in Germany are available for European delivery.
I shipped my CDI to Germany and used the car over there for almost 12 months. There was no problem with ULSD and the service at a German dealership was the best I ever encountered.

+1, no Euro Delivery on US built cars. Also the premium diesel fuels available in Germany are so much better than the garbage sold in the US, cleaner, quieter, more power, more efficient.
