Used 2005 Mercedes-Benz M-Class for Sale

This vehicle is one you must stay away from. While a great driving feel, this car had its load of issues and high price tag. Decent looks on the exterior, interior could be better for the price. Car feels sturdy while driving and hugs the road well. Breaks are good in the vehicle and comes to a stop quickly. Passenger ride is quite smooth and spacious. An amazing feature is the ability to use the infotainment system when car is off. Fuel pump had to be changed 4 times for example. Along with the high maintenance costs, the parts on the vehicle on the interior are flimsy. On the exterior, panels on the trunk and grille have come off. The leather has deteriorated unlike that of similar models in the BMW and Audi. In addition, the car averaged 13 mpg with a V6 engine. ML350 has a lot of p... (more)

Story

Took this car off-roading and was able to cross a small river. We had a blast. Was out with my buddies in Niceville. We were messing around after a rainy afternoon and wanted to go mudding. We had gotten stuck in the ML-350 quite a few times. Every time I could count on the ML to pull me out of any hole I was stuck in. As we were going through the woods, I ended up on a river.

Pros

The driving was smooth with good feedback for a vehicle its size.

Cons

High maintenance costs.

2005 Mercedes-Benz M-Class - Nice vehicle if it's properly maintenance.

Impressed with the solid, beefy-look exterior and the gray leather interior. I am the 2nd owner at 75,000 miles and have replaced the power steering pump, sensors, new tires, and battery. Aside from these costs, I would agree that this vehicle is great because of its spacious inside. The limited edition includes a sun roof that makes for fun in the warm weather. I don't like the cost of gas that comes with this vehicle. It can get quite expensive when you pay more than $4.00 A gallon. The amount and costs of repairs in relation to the length of time I've owned the vehicle is not good.

Story

Listening to music with the sun roof open. Getting lost and using navigation for the first time was fun.

Pros

My favorite thing about my vehicle is that it's big enough to fit my entire family. I also enjoy the smooth ride with the sunroof open listening to my collection of music. The ml350 has a 6 disk changer. The top positive thing is that the vehicle includes a navigation system, incase I need to get somewhere fast. It's definitely loaded with some nice features.

Cons

Top negative things would be gas mileage, repair cost and regular maintenance. I would also add that with Mercedes its important to have someone who specializes in this type of vehicle doing any repairs.
