Buying a ML
I hate to ask such a broad question but I am looking to purchase a used 2000 ML320 in March/April. Is there any particular quirks or shortcoming with this model ? Also, I am looking to buy something with 30 to 40,000 miles on it, is there any major services I should inquire about being done prior to purchase. Thanks.

Hey!! I remember you! . If I were you I would try to find a 2001 because they really started to improve in quality then. A 2000 isn't bad but the later you go with the model years, the better the quality. Make sure you get the starmark warranty and you will be OK. Good to see you back online!

yeah.., I agree with Alboston. you should consider 2001, if the mileage is still 30k to 40k, you should have no problem, because you can have Mercedes service for everything(Under Warranty).

Thanks...
I will try for an 01. I will post pics when I get her (after being detailed to my standards). I still have a few months left on my C-Kompressor . iI can't wait to give her back for the more family friendly ML.
My wife always get an ML as a loaner while car is in for service, and she loves this SUV.
