Thanks for stopping by! I have, a BLACK ON BLACK, 2001 Mercedes ML 430 ( Automatic/Bose system/3rd row seating). I am selling my truck, because, it is not quite the right size, for a “soccer mom”, well Ballet and Tae K won Do – MOMMY. This car has been in the FAMILY, from day one. The original cost was $58,000. I am offering, this car, that has been remarkably maintained, for a fraction of the cost . Since I caved in, and purchased a Town & Country. Which is, the kind of car I needed. NOW HERE IS THE BAD PART, I am not a mechanic,and I have the Minivan, last week the coolant light came on, and I will not fix it, since I am selling it. It could be from the car sitting,and not being driven, for months. But again, I am not fixing it. This car is taken to Motortech, on Clove Road ( Staten Island), and the price to fix the line and sensor is $600. That's is reflected in the price of the car. All reasonable offers will be considered, CASH IN HAND. No stories. The Mercedes, is in VERY VERY GOOD CONDITION. I had all new brake and chassis work done and tires put on in April 2014 ( I have an itemized receipt for a total of $2995). The Fluids were flushed, regularly, and OEM ( Mercedes Brand) products were used. This car has been treated like new, for 15 years. The mileage for this car, as it is driven on STATEN ISLAND and to Sesame place, and THAT IS IT. This is a perfect car to own, for low insurance, or a Young driver, or someone who does not want to pay over 5 thousand, for a 4 x 4. Or the best darn parts car on ebay, as this car can be driven across the country without an issue. I am the owner, and I only except PAYPAL OR CASH IN PERSON. Clean and Clear Title and current NYS inspection stickers are on the car. ( serious buyers, should reply, as this car will sell fast) Again, all this car needs is someone to drive it! Owner's manual in the glove box. I can ship at NEW BUYERS EXPENSE. ( no reserve) SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY. NO REFUNDS. NO BACK OUTS. THE CAR IS AS-IS. No warranty, either stated or implied. This is a perfectly good car, and accurate description has been given. On Jul-20-16 at 03:55:53 PDT, seller added the following information: Hey all..... I meant to sell this with LOW RESERVE..... so I have a typo. I did LOWER THE RESERVE PRICE. Thanks for stopping by.....
