ML55 AMG to buy or not to buy?
local Mercedes dealer has a MY 2000 ML55 AMG for sale. 89k on the clock. Big V-8, 5.5L. Nav. What do you think? Mileage too high, would I be getting into costly maintenance issues with a 10 year old vehicle?
Thanks

We had one and loved it. Never had any major issue.. 60k on the clock when traded it in. Just make you get all of the records. It does get thirsty.

Still have not decided on whether or not to pick this up, it is an awesome looking vehicle. all the records are available. I would use it just for going back and forth to work, a 20 min. ride, not highway, with the occasional snowstorm.
