Mercedes or nothing. I had a facelift W164 model 2009 3.5 model. Absolutely bulletproof. Way better than any other suv out there. Now I have 2012 W166 ML and that also is a bulletproof 💪🏼
Very interesting video on what is a very unique car! You'd have to be a true enthusiast to buy something like this. Saw a Brabus ML63 recently which I didn't even realise existed.
Great video my friend and a really enlightening review. Merry Christmas to you buddy. Have a lovely time and looking forward to seeing the next one 😊😊😊
Surprisingly enough I have no major issues with mine, although I’ve had proper Mercedes services and maintenance, the only issue I’ve had was a intermittent suspension fault which was caused by a faulty censor
@@biafo4541 Because of the fact that you stated....these kinds of vehicles, especially after a few years, should be ridiculed and shamed for being what they are : unreliable and low build quality vehicles that were always too expensive and are made to screw people over buying them.
I think you don't know anything about the ml series at least the w164 I had the ml350 it was a 2009 bought it with 125.000 km in 2016 and sold it last year with 400.000km driving it everyday in Athens where traffic is awful and I didn't experience any severe problem
"I feel part of Albanian mafia, im on my way to pick up some AK47 to do a job" 😂😂😂 that part had me 😂
😂😂🙌
I own a 2008 ml63 and I absolutely love it! Yes its expensive to run and maintain but you have to pay to play 😊 best wishes

Looks better than the current GLE, I like it
it doesn't
I like it alot but not better than the GLE
Yes, no massive screens, interior disco lighting and it's classically subtle outside

Fun fact: This is the only SUV Mercedes fitted the iconic M156 6.2L naturally aspirated V8 engine

Thanks I’m glad you enjoyed it. Hope you have a great one too. Plenty of videos to come over the festive period 😎
There was also an older ml55 amg
I believe that you have a problem with that car as my 0-60 is definitely more aggressive and quicker!
I’d have one just for the fact alone that hardly anyone has one
🤙 nice ! (having had a w163/400cdi) luv it !
Nice 👍
Part of owning a ship is assuming running costs fuel tires taxes maintenance etc.
X5m was years ahead
BMW =BIG MONEY WASTED 😂
Did the X5m ever have a n/a V8 ?
No it wasn’t really unreliable asf that cayeene was ass design
I know its an odd question but are these capable off-road.I knie that the Cayenne (first gen) was very good, especially with proper off-road tyres.
Mercedes rules
as an ML55 AMG owner it killed me when you said the first ever AMG SUV was released in 2005 😓
Disappointing 0-60 but love the car anyway with that engine
Most probably has some type of fault :/
Reminds me of a van inside
Oh ?which van with that much luxury?
@ what luxury ?
Because the R class had a SIMILAR interior, it is still luxurious and comfortable and besides it's just your opinion.
Bro come on there's literally a ML 55 AMG.. Factually this is not the first fast ML
Yup from 90s actually. First ever ML W163 was considered as the ultimate 4x4 beast and king of suburbs with low range mode
It doesn’t have a dual clutch transmission, it has a torque converter.
i see it really often in my city, neighbor just drives it
Yes, forgotten but the way it's still rumbling tells that I'm still the boss
My ML 430 does 8.2 to 60, something is wrong it !
How much you weigh bro?
I'm kidding.
95kg,and that's on 285/65/18 Wrangler At tyres on AMG rims... Pulled a Nissan Navara out the other day !
ML 500 had more HP, I think the one HP output that u were talking about was in the 1gen.
Screws holding the steering wheel together?
+ and - button for changing gear, holes on the rear for tool to go in and release airbag.
I rly. like those. Best Gen. of Mercs. with the w211, w221, w209, w219 and, and, and.. .
This car had a fault hence the slow 0-60
U right about the albaina they love amgs
They do!
average mpg?
30l per 100km
I do 22 miles each way from work every day on the motorway and if I drive like a vicar I get around 20mpg however my truthful average is around 17mpg
Heard these are unreliable though? At least the 07-09 versions..?
Ofcos there are, no need to do research. You want a crazy fast SUV , any of them, then accept it's not going to be reliable

nice review, but not the best example, for sure this car had some issues. My wifes ML63 (also w164) is way faster.
Slow that
Very slow
Why does everyone want to look like Jeremy clarkson,? Driven minus!
I’d love to see a picture of Jeremy with a skin fade, Driven+ hoodie and Gucci trainers 😂👍
Horrible 0-60
Roll race will be way faster than that. 0-60 isn't important
@aryub5851 yeah but it's notabley slow. If it was less than 6 seconds it would still be ok
Driven+ : yes....hhmmmm....AND THE NOT so much FORGOTTEN VERY POOR BUILD QUALITY AND VERY POOR RELIABILITY of the crappy Merc ML model :).
BMW =BIG MONEY WASTED
@isabella15704 I agree as well :-)
There is no such thing as a reliable high performance SUV , cmon guys. You buy any of these things used and it's going to be a money pit.

Im sorry but It's the xc 90 v8 for me all day. Much better interior and built quality.
People just used to have more common sense & and didn't really drive stupid commodes because they thought it made them look cool.
