Is this one the same what you have?

This car is smarter than my 2020 car. ITS 19 YEARS OLD.

I remember I was young my dad had this car but the year 1999 in black, gosh such good memories.

This was one of my absolute dream cars as a kid.

I own a 1999 ml430 just started doing repairs that's been neglected by its previous owners. There's a lot of old tech to which i didn't know about but knew that i had in that car. I could care less but that engine 4.3 v8 is really a beautiful sounding engine.

the w163 is an awesome SUV.....when well maintained. My ML 320 is pretty much fully loaded due to me being able to simply pull used parts from totaled MLs and plug n play into mine. So rare that a European designed car is prewired for all options.

If it wasn't for me constantly fixing my familiy's ML320Sport... the car would have been junked a long time ago. Such a terrible car to keep after 70k miles.

@@RichardVac did you buy yours new? My family bought a used 2002 silver ML320 sport in 2006. It already had like around 70k miles on it and 70k is the magical number of miles for these cars to start self destructing after. I have a huge laundry list of stuff I had to replace over the years...the parts I can think of off the top of my head is, BAS sensor, ESP sensor, climate controls, shifter bezel controls, the sunroof seals, idler pulley wheels, crankshaft pulley, valve cover gaskets, ignition coils/ and spark plugs, climate blend door actuator, radiator, condensor radiator, coolant pump, power steering fluid pump, alternator, low range actuator motor, A/C compressor (twice), transmission valve body, transmission module needed to be flashed back to factory after it got corrupted somehow. And that's all the stuff I remember. Not to mention all the tiny and small pieces of plastic that constantly have to be super glued back together. There is a reason why you don't see many of these on the road nowadays...modern Mercedes cars have a small half life. Don't believe me? Just check how fast a Benz depreciates on the market after just one year. My advice is to stay away from these unless you are bored and like having a project to do. This thing has left me stranded on numerous occasions, the BAS/ESP was the worst malfunction of all...the car's brakes would just lock up randomly sometimes the out of nowhere and almost get me killed. It happened at cruising speed and even at low speeds, almost stranded me in the middle of a busy intersection. And the transmission would just get stuck in first gear all the time l...so i changed the valve body but no results so the mercedes technicians factory reset the TCU and it fixed it somehow. Now the A/C only blows cold when it wants to. 🙄 . I suppose your healthy car proves that it's luck of the draw when it comes to these somewhat old Mercedes cars. My advice to anyone considering buying and old menz is; stay the hell away from mercedes period. Germans outsource the manufacturing so actual Germans don't assemble them anymore...and the quality proves it. My mom just bought a brand new Nissan Rogue and I swear I cannot tell it apart from any high end Luxury car...the features and tech and quality is on par with the best luxury cars. I wouldn't belive it myself if the Nissan Badge wasn't all over the car. Most other brands have caught up with Mercedes so dont waist your money on a German luxury car that is worthless in a few years unless you are a shallow person and buying a car for vanity and to double as a status symbol of your wealth. Anyways...bottom line is stay away from Mercedes, especially used ones! Best way to make insane money is become a mercedes/BMW mechanic😆

@mcnuggetapple I have been using my ML320 a lot lately for hauling things, now it's got 160k miles and it seems to be working good after I had the transmission valve body replaced along with a transmission reflash. Now I gotta fix the air conditioner, sunroof seal and one of the ingition coils is making a lot of noise. I only get cold air half the time. And I also have a 00 S500 with 230K miles and it's always got an issue as well. I have also owned a 03 325i that had its own set of malfunctions. And 70k is usually the milage where things start breaking and owners trade up for a newer model. Encountering faults on high milage German cars is very ussual, this is why used Mercedes go for very cheap.

Still runs like a new after 250k miles

This is actually more reliable than the newer ones. They're no Toyota Land Cruiser but if you do your maintenance which includes replacing some parts when they go bad (it's expected from every brand at some point, some earlier in their life than others) they can last several years and thousands of miles without major issues.
