2007 ML63 200,000km
Hi guys. Got a high km ML63 last December that has been looked after. It is about to clock 200,000km and runs like a kitten.
We got it as a spare when the kids are around etc, but is such a nice vehicle wife left her Audi to drive this daily.
It runs 1L/100km more than my C63 507, and easily runs 12L/100km on a trip. Power wise, all 514hp appear to still be there.
Not sure how many high km ones are out there so thought I'd post
Future mods, I'd like to lower it - it sits and rides too high, just do not want to ruin the wonderful ride. Tempted to run headers etc - but I have other toys to do that, kinda feel this ol beast should be treated well

My 2007 ML63 AMG has 90,000 miles on it and is going strong.
We use it for our weekend utility vehicle and long trip / vacation cruiser, which it excels at. I am about ready to switch over to the winter tires for the anticipated snowy roads where the all-wheel drive will be much appreciated.
The acceleration and wonderful engine exhaust sounds are still putting a smile on my face!

Hey fellas! I've got a c63 and am looking to move it on to get something bigger.
With 3 kids, one a year and a half away from not needing a car seat, the ML should do nicely
For those with a c63, is the sound more subdued in the ML or is it comparable? I drive with windows down whenever I can
Good to hear about fuel as well. I was concerned that it would drink lots more (I would use it as a daily clocking up 350km a week) so only 1l/100km more sounds great.
I am still shocked these past few weeks where a tank of fuel is less than $100, it was even less than $80 the other day!

Apples to apples the ML uses more fuel obviously, but is a lot quieter and more comfortable than my C63.
My old ML63 died - they don't run under water apparently - hit a hole crossing a stream and BOOM RIP trusty old girl - she was a beaut and never gave me a single headache.... well until I drove it into a water hole
Got a 2009 now with only 48k miles :-) black stitched leather dash, rear and side camera's etc. Nice car
