Lbs for Lbs the formidable ML500 is hard to beat!!!


Everytime you say that you get me lost on e-bay for a half hour and yes they can be had cheap down over in the fens........ So what goes wrong and is a pre 2002 (cheaper road tax) version to be avoided.........

See.....bugger I'm already considering it........

Double feck......ther's a 2002 in Norwich for £3.5k......160k miles......... Do they do mega miles before going bang??

The 2002-on is the one to have (indicators in the rear view mirrors) and as for mileage, they should be good for 300k with no major problems.

Solid chassis and a V8 powerhouse is a combo that works!!!

They are i guess in comparison to some,but i find them to be around the same price as a Defender of a similar year.I have one here and i would part with it for sub £4k,which is not much more than i sold my 90 for and that was older and agricultural
