W163 ML270 CDI
New Member, driving a W163 ML270 CDI
Hello all,

Looking forward to learning a lot from the wealth of knowledge available on the forums!

I'm currently driving a 2002 W163 ML270 CDI, and slowly going about turning it into the most off-road capable ML-class in the state! Currently have 2 inch lift kit installed and driving along on 33 inch Yokohama Geolandar's. Certainly does the job for sand-driving but I wouldn't mind saving up for some mud-terrain tyres to hit the dirt tracks.

Thanks!

Welcome to MBWorld. Looks like she's getting a good workout and not your typical pavement pounder
