They have the ML270 over there I believe, do they have a ML320 or ML430, or any others?

They don't have different names - they just have more models than we do in the US.

For example, in the US for 2003 we only have the ML320/350, ML500, and the ML55 AMG, which are all gas-powered.

In the UK and Europe, as well as other places in the world, they sell those models plus the diesel models. The CDI (relatively new diesel technology) diesels include the ML270 CDI and the ML400 CDI (although the latter is not listed in the MB UK site - maybe it was discontined there ). They are said to be silky and full of torque. IIRC they gave a couple (ML400s) for testing to some US police departments in the southwest.

There is only one gas ML that was not sold in the US - that was the ML230, which was discontinued in other parts of the world at some earlier point.

Hope this helps
