Key strengths: Reliable
Areas for improvement: Front seats / starter motor
Drives like a tank. Feels like a tank.
The security is the greatest compared to any road going vehicle.
The best vehicle I have ever driven.
Reliable.
I would recommend this vehicle to anyone who drives a multi-personnel vehicle or four wheel drive.
It has great road presence.
Engine sound is excellent.
I am saving up to get a newer version.
Front seats do not wear well.
Starter motor needed to be replaced at 110000 miles, £500.00 from the dealer.
Top speed is 60mph, downhill it is 70mph.
Glow plugs are 9 volt ones not 0.9 volts, found this out after blowing out £100.00 worth of plugs from the Mercedes dealer.
Heaters need looking at. They blow hot on a hot day. The running costs for Mercedes G Class 3.0 turbo diesel Automatic are high
