Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec – Mint Luxury All-Wheel Drive SUV
Absolutely Loaded, Dealer Maintained,
Original Owner, 4-Wheel Drive, Garaged
You are considering an exceptionally
well maintained, (dealer serviced), all-wheel drive, pristine 2011 Mercedes-Benz
ML350 BlueTec Clean Diesel SUV. This
Luxury Sport Utility Vehicle is amazingly immaculate, inside and out (see
photos). The vehicle has always been garaged, both at home and at work. This is
my wife’s primary vehicle, mostly for a 15 mile commute to work each day. We
purchased the vehicle new from the local Mercedes-Benz dealership. My wife and I are a late -30’s couple, married,
and mature. We are replacing the vehicle with a mini-van in preparation for the
arrival of our three babies (yes, we are having triplets!). We hate to let the
vehicle go, however it no longer meets our needs.
This is our first of many Mercedes-Benz…we
are truly impressed with the fit and finish. The vehicle is well engineered and
thoroughly designed down to every last detail. We purchased this vehicle brand
new with most every luxury and option offered by Mercedes-Benz, including
factory installed trailer hitch and running boards. The clean diesel engine is truly incredible,
with great fuel economy accompanying commanding towing power. This ML350 is loaded:

-Antilock Braking System (ABS):
ABS senses impending wheel lockup
under heavy braking and pumps the front brakes individually or the rear brakes
together (to help maintain stability) as needed up to 30 times per second, to
prevent lockup and maintain steering ability
-Brake Assist (BAS):
BAS senses emergency braking via
the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal and immediately applies
maximum available power boost, potentially reducing the overall stopping
distance by eliminating the delay caused by a common human tendency not to
brake hard enough, soon enough. Letting up on the brake pedal releases BAS.

Condition
Summary:
Again, we purchased this
beautiful ML-350 BlueTec brand new from the local Mercedes-Benz Dealer. The vehicle was my wife’s primary vehicle,
mostly for a 15 mile commute to work each day and now has 31,423 original
miles. The vehicle is being kept clean
in our 3 car garage until sold, with less than an additional 100 – 200 miles before
sale. The Mercedes is extremely clean
and shows nearly “like new” (see pictures).
There not any major or minor dents, dings, scratches or unexpected
damage on this vehicle. There are a few
very, very expected insignificant imperfections in the paint here and there
from open road travel and daily use, but you have to look very, very closely to
identify them.
This Mercedes-Benz remains is
such pristine condition because of my attention to detail. It has always been garaged, both at home and
work. I routinely wash and wax the
vehicle. Additionally, the interior is immaculate
with very infrequent rear passenger use.
We are both NON-Smokers.
This
Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec is truly immaculate! Please see the photos, they speak for
themselves.
Maintenance:
All scheduled maintenance has
been strictly followed and perform by our local Mercedes-Benz Dealership. I have all documentation verifying every major
scheduled services and maintenance for the vehicle.
