1998 Mercedes Benz Ml320 (ml 320) Runs Good V-6 Leather Seats, Green/beige Inter on 2040-cars
Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania, United States
|
We owned this vehicle the early 2000’s and have maintained it since then. I bought it from a dealer in Ohio and we flew out (my son and I) to Cleveland to pick it up. I had for over eleven (11) years and still find it drivable as any other car. It has pickup---and V-6 engine and yes, requires 12 spark plugs—crazy German engineering!
Some of the features include:
Engine: V6 3.2 Liter Automatic Transmission 4WD Traction Control ABS (4 Wheels) Air Conditioning Power Windows Power Door Locks Cruise Control Power Steering Tilt Wheel Dual and Side Air Bags AM/FM Stereo Multi player CD/ Cassette It runs smooth and has a small amount of issues. First there are some cosmetic issues—surface flash rusting on some of the wheel panels and on the wheels. The plastic plate which controls the seat adjustment in the back on the passenger side has a crack which only affects the cosmetic appearance. The inside dome light on the driver side needs to be fixed. And the back passenger side on the driver’s side will make a loud noise when the remote lock is depressed. If you’re only opening the driver’s door---there is no noise when depressing the key.
The back wheels are painted aluminum on steel wheels and on the passenger side there is some rust. This wheel has blistered and will need to be sanded and painted as it is causing a slow leak from the rust on that wheel. The glove box doesn’t work as it is missing a latch so I duct taped it shut. The water light and ETS light come on while running. The ETS has always come on and my mechanic stated it will be no problem with its drivability. The water light comes on but I attribute that to a bad sensor with the water pressure. I did replace the water pump and sensor as well as the fan clutch, hoses and belt all last year. Included was the fan belt tensioner pulley and oil cooler. Also I put in a new battery -quite expensive but lasts a many years unlike conventional cars. I di buy an used Air smog pump on eBay and replaced the old original one. It doesn't seem to really improve the pickup. I was tempted to remove it all the way for better performance, but I didn't. Also
I just put on new brake pads on the front and back wheels. I have the original air box, if needed, as we have an improvised air filter on it now--(for faster pickup). It does not overheat, the A/C is running cold, and it has great performance.
I personally took very good care of this SUV and personally maintained the oil changes every three to six months. It has a big engine and takes only Mobil One oil (0-40). The engine is in great shape and probably will run another 180,000 miles with no failure. I have maintained the fluids (topping them off or replacing them) every three or four weeks religiously and this engine should last a long time if you take care of it as I did,. It has leather electrically-adjustable seats which are also heated. It is a great ride if yo.u maintain it and check its oil and water levels every month. I offer no warranties and am selling it as-is. I am sure that the individual parts are worth much more than my asking price for the whole vehicle. This SUV won't last long on the marketplace as it has many options and parts which, if piece-mealed, could offer the buyer many more times his or her returns. It has about 185,000-186,000 miles and has been well maintained. As any older car it has its occasional issues. I just spent over $1,000 on inspection-- replacing the front ball joints and one of the main brake lines. It is inspected until 2015 but will eventually need some new tires. It will need new tires and the other brake line inspected and/or repaired soon. Also I have only one remote key for it.
Please review the pictures and email with any questions. I am more than ready to offer more pictures if need be. I am getting old and will be getting my wife into a lease deal as I am tired of working on cars. I do also have a 1986 Jeep CJ-7 with 68,000 original miles for sale. Once these two vehicles are out of the garage, my wife will be happy. Which means more rewarding and quiet sleep for me! I offer free local pickup in the 19053 zip code. I am just north of Philadelphia, PA. Please check out my other estate items up for auction this month. Thanks and God Bless.

Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.
Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid ready for 'major role' in urban areas
Fri, Jan 17 2014We finally got a clear look at the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid at the Frankfurt Motor Show last fall, but it took until this week to learn what the vision (see what we did there) is that Mercedes-Benz has for the PHEV. Despite it's generous size, Mercedes thinks this is a vehicle that will work well in urban areas. Speaking to members of the media during the Detroit Auto Show, Thomas Weber, Daimler AG management board member and research and development chief for Mercedes-Benz cars, said that the S500 PHEV, "will play a major role in congested areas" and that it will offer "a lot of driving pleasure." Part of that pleasure will come from a 0-62 mile-per-hour time of around 5.5 seconds thanks to a turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6 and an 80-kilowatt electric motor. The PHEV also has a 19-mile EV range, which will put it at the bottom end of the Three-Pointed star plug-in lineup. The upcoming C-Class plug-in, for example, will likely go, "closer to 50 km [31 miles]," Weber said, according to Green Car Reports. The S500 PHEV will go on sale in Europe later this year and will come to the US in early 2015 but there is no timeline, yet, for the C-Class plug-in (and the standard gas-electric hybrid version) or the even-more-future E-Class hybrids.

F1 title fight gets closer | 2016 US Grand Prix recap
Mon, Oct 24 2016We ran into an old friend at the US Grand Prix: an on-form Lewis Hamilton. Reliability and proper clutch actuation helped the Mercedes-AMG Petronas driver resurrect the kind of performance we haven't seen since July at the German Grand Prix. After demolishing the previous qualifying record around the Circuit of the Americas, he put the field in his mirrors as soon as the lights went out, was never bothered by anyone behind, and crossed the finish line 4.5 seconds ahead of teammate Nico Rosberg. The drive was exactly what Hamilton needed to keep his molecule-thin Championship hopes alive. Rosberg, however, did exactly what he needed to do as well by finishing second. The German had a sketchier path to the checkered flag than Hamilton, getting pushed back to the third at the start by Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo. Worse, Ricciardo appeared to have the pace to keep Hamilton honest ahead and hold Rosberg behind. Red Bull and Mercedes matched one another's pit stops, and it was clear the German would need more help to pass the Aussie. Rosberg didn't have to make his own luck, Ricciardo's teammate Max Verstappen made the luck for him. Ricciardo pitted on Lap 26, ceding second position on track to Rosberg. On Lap 30, Verstappen's gearbox failed while headed down the back straight. The Dutch teenager said the team told him to try to get the car back to the pits, so he dawdled through a few corners before following more team orders to pull over and park. Verstappen's parking spot and bad gearbox meant marshals couldn't push the car off the track, they needed to use a crane. That brought out a Virtual Safety Car, slowing the whole race down and allowing Rosberg to run a longer stint while losing less time on old tires. When the German came in for new tires on Lap 31 he emerged ahead of Ricciardo, and they ran that way to the end of the race, much to Ricciardo's disappointment. Sebastian Vettel claimed fourth for Ferrari, a placing perhaps due only to Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen retiring from the race. An otherwise anonymous weekend for the scuderia called attention to itself on race day when Raikkonen had to call it a day after a botched pit stop, and Vettel couldn't make any impression on the teams ahead. Fernando Alonso rode home to a brilliant fifth for McLaren. During the first stint while rummaging around outside the top ten, the Spaniard complained about his lack of pace. By Lap 15 Alonso was tenth, on Lap 34 he was eighth.
