Plus it has covered just shy of 500000 miles, so may not be quite as efficient as it should be lol
that's a lot of fuel filters and glow plugs FP. why not transplant an ML55AMG unit in there, after all the old girl owes you nothing

I paid £105 for it 3 years ago and have put about 20k on it. It's only cost me the price of the MOTs (passed every time with nothing needed) and a couple of oil changes.

It owes me nothing at all but isn't viable for anything other than passing her on to an enthusiast to keep her on the road. MOT is up soon and I think I've ridden my luck with this old bird
