Thats a beautiful looking car, there was a fully blown Brabus near where I used to live owned by a lottery winner with a very trick number plate, looked just like your car, used to stand out more than the Porshes and ferraris in my eyes, she now has the new model, not as nice looking imo. The AMG's look brilliant but dont have the wow factor of the Brabus.

Beautiful car.... saying that I am quite drawn to the new ML63, have to wait for my lotto numbers to come up for that one though... I saw three ML63's the other day when I was up at Gleneagles Hotel, must be the new 'to have car'.. mmmm...... yes please!!

2003 M-class with Brabus off-road package.
BRABUS off road package

hello
i think i saw the ml with the off road BRABUS package you are talking about on this web-site....the person was from Scotland and the car looked identical to mine. My car was already prepared by BRABUS in New Port Beach, California, when the car dealer, Fletcher Jones, got it from them and they put it in their showroom. i can't believe i leased it right out of the showroom but, i didn't like the s-class looks, or the e-class and the m-class looked unattractive. but this BRABUS made me lose my control.....i had to have it and i'm not a bit sorry i did it. In january i will buy it.....and yes, i need to hit the lottery too..... this car is expensive but there's only 4 in the USA for '03
(according the BRABUS) so that kind of makes it worth it. thanks for your comments...

ML270 @ Fraser Island

ML270 with custom rear spoiler, OEM ext. wheel carrier, OEM side steps, OEM 3rd row seats, Reece towbar, TJM allow bull bar, custom sand board (now dinted due to high-speed sand ditch mishap... Now designing MkII!!!!), '07 Kenwood DDX AV unit + reverse camera (HDTV, nav & bluetooth modules ordered!), Hella driving lights, upgraded suspension with King HD springs, WAECO fridge, long range aux fuel tank (ordered). Now looking at either remapping the ECU or upgrading turbo/exhaust!

For the Fraser Island trip , expecting rough terrain, I shod the ML with Goodyear ATRs. The ML performed admirably and outgunned the many Prados and Landcruisers in the deeply rutted soft sand and in the rough & tumble hilly bits, in the comfort of a luxo 4wd!

Gripes however, are as follows:
- No flexible mudflaps are available. The OEM moulded one suck. I'm looking at a custom flexi set (F&R).
- The OEM brackets for the side steps are basic and haven't been designed for offroad abuse. I'll get replacement ones from TJM/ARB that have a shallower profile that won't snag.
