Before I advertise our ML I thought I'd pop it on here. Having owned it for 8 years, with such complete history, it would nice for it to go to someone who will appreciate it. It genuinely has been maintained regardless of cost - the history file is incredible, I'm very particular!!

I spent £1300 at Mercedes-Benz of Wolverhampton just 4 weeks ago, including service, ALL additional items, new ARB bushes, new rear suspension and other things. Olly (PCS) replaced the ATF, glow plugs and inlet manifold last year, and it's got recent Continentals all round. The list goes on.

If someone from MBClub buys it then I'll throw in a the Becker Mexico CD-player with iPod connection, brand new MB mats in black, MB rubber mats, MB boot tub, and brand new Brabus sill plates.

MBClub price £5650, offers considered

PM me for more information.

I'll add some more photos at the weekend after a wash!

Brakes also replaced this year, as was the central locking module which was done at the main dealer but I missed that when typing the above list.

Lots of receipts and fully stamped book:
