I think it's a good buy considering its a cpo.
It has the crucial right options being the bixenon headlights, the rear airconditioning system and the rear seat entertainment plus the lane tracking and parking sensors.

The only thing missing for me personally would be the Harman kardon sound system and the trailer hitch.
The hitch is extremely useful for bike racks and home depot/uhaul runs.

I looked through, it seems like it's had a hard first owner but reconditioned nicely. Strangely enough I see that in the service history the rear brake pads and rotors were replaced/machined. But not the front. At least not mentioned specifically by line as the rear ones are.
That might be something to look into.

If you can negotiate a couple grand off that would be awesome and try to swing for the extended limited warranty.
It will be a God send when the struts and air bags start to leak.
The only other thing would be to insist on new rotors but that's me personally ....and perhaps insist on a factory installed hitch.

Hope your gl will bring much joy!

It really depends on the price your dealer is going to set on a piece by piece basis or a discounted package you buy now.

Whether you go to an indy or stick to mb.

If you get an extended warranty, and stick to an older experienced sa they will more than likely help you out with maintenance pricing if you ask.
Also a log of things can be done simply on your own; and the maintenance packages are negotiable in price.

40k is a big one.
Trans flush. Brake flush 2 yrs
Oil and filter + cabin and air filter.

50 k should be just oil
But....I saw mb started recommending earlier spark plug changes so that might be done here. Our 2010 had its due at 60k.

60k.
Oil and filter
Brake flush + cabin filter usually

40k I think will be 6-700
50k just oil is 120-140
Spark plugs is easily 4-600
60k 5-800

Again some things can be done easily by yourself.
Windshield wipers are done in less than 2 min
Cabin n filters in 5 min
Air filters depending on how the new one is maybe 15 minutes.

Also some mb dealerships will let you bring your own parts and will work on a set labor rate for certain services.
Mine does brake rotors and pad replacements for 260 per axle just labor.
That meant I sourced ebc sport rotors and akebono pads for the brake setup.


Hope it helps!

I don't want to give you a specific answer because I don't know...yours is a cpo so the situation is different.

If it was just used and still in the 4 years 48k I could have confidently said yes, shop around for the elw as dealerships charge different prices.

But being a cpo, I would ask a competing dealership for clarification or wait for someone to chime in on here.

We bought ours through carmax with an aftermarket extended warranty administered through the warranty group.
I have no complaints as all repairs have been covered at the dealership and I have one more year and 20k miles.

The only thing I wish I knew was to get a lower deductible!

Good points from DC Benz.

Would also check for the cargo cover for the rear while your at it when you do purchase.
Does the x166 have the media interface cable too?


Some accessories to consider.
All weather mats + whisprbar for crossbars.
Mercedes doesn't make a decent crossbar for the x166....


Also something to consider the 2014 gl 450s still had a v8 and a rear 3rd row sunroof.
2015+ had the v6

Would either of these work then ?

Blue VS silver? Silver has the hitch
Although I can't tell from the pictures if they have xenon headlights.



Cheers

Please buy this 😍

I agree with the consensus about the gl550.

V8, ventilated seats, massage and multicontour seats and more importantly the ads system which will be awesome in the city with potholes.

Honestly that ads system is amazing. We test drove a gls550 recently and the power is quite amazing plus the potential power to be unlocked from a tune.
Also.....we were able to hit speed bumps at twice the speed of our own gl450 in our neighborhood in the gls550 and the 550 just floated over them...the 450 wallows.

Plus they are easier to find than a 450 with the right options.
I posted a link with the 550 for I think $48k
Other 550s might be worth a look.


LOL Honda pilot. Our neighbor has one and they're popular in Bethesda.....but I wouldn't really compare how they look the same.

Here's the link to the forum about remote start the (DC Benz) Dreams alone is talking about.

I stumbled upon it myself too....ended up being happy with the keyless go and the car in the garage.
