2003 Mercedes-Benz ML500 Luxury SUV

FUNCTIONAL and TIMELESS:
"Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz"
When you think about the Mercedes-Benz brand of motorcars, certain phrases frequently pop into mind, such as "advanced German engineering," "impeccable quality workmanship," and of course, "status automobile." Indeed, many of these same phrases also define the unique character of the vehicles manufactured by Germany's perhaps most renowned and respected automaker. Mercedes Benz vehicles, like all German-made vehicles, but perhaps more, are designed, engineered and manufactured to be especially dependable, safe, comfortable and, most of all, functional.
Unlike cars from other prominent auto-manufacturing nations, such as Japan, Italy, Great Britain or the Unitede States, German cars have traditionally not been loaded up with "useless" bells and whistles, or styling which is destined to become outdated when a newer style comes out. The engineering and comfort features of Mercedes-Benz vehicles are sensible and useful; their design and appearance is refined, sophisticated and, in a way, timeless.
The Mercedes-Benz character and values stand firmly in their entry into the mid-sized sport utility category of vehicles known as the M-Class, of which the ML500 with its 288hp 5.0L V-8 engine is near top-of-the-line. The ML500 is everything a mid-sized SUV is supposed to be -- powerful, rugged, spacious, comfortable, safe and reliable.
Whether you're doing errands around town making use of every inch of cargo space, traveling the nation's highways where acceleration and towing capacity are vital, or even off-roading on backroads and beaches with all-wheel-drive traction, the Mercedes-Benz ML500 will always impress you.
HOW OLD DID YOU SAY YOUR CAR IS?
A Vehicle Built to Last and Never Look Old
The immaculate condition ML500 up for auction here comes from a local (non-smoking) customer of our dealership who performed all maintainence, and corrected any and all issues, in a timely and thorough fashion. Highlights of its complete Specifications, Features and Options list reprinted are 3rd Row Seats, Alloy wheels, Leather Seating, DVD, Navigation, Rear Seat Entertainment, and a Sunroof.
With only a little over 100k miles on its odometer, outstanding service history, and excellent interior /exterior appearance, along with its world-class construction and "timeless" styling, this ML500 will probably deliver many more years of happy motoring to its new owner... possibly YOU. It's truly an SUV which has the potential to look and perform in the year 2013 like it did brand new in 2003. Get used to hearing... "HOW OLD did you say your car is?"
Please contact us by eBay messaging, email or telephone for any additional information or questions, including to inquire about our special Reserve and/or Buy-It-Now pricing on this ML500. Good luck bidding and even better luck winning!

In keeping with the promise of the most popular auto dealership motto in Upstate New York, –“You’re Gonna LOVE the feel of a Gault Auto Deal,” our mission here on eBay is to make certain that when you win a Gault eBay auction, you too will feel you got the best deal possible on the vehicle of your choice. Moreover, you’ll have the feeling of confidence that only comes with knowing you have the support of a 75-year-old, professionally staffed and state–of-the-art equipped modern automotive facility with the finest local reputation.
In order to successfully fulfill
our dealership motto and eBay promise,
we take the following THREE steps:
1) We "cherry pick" our eBay vehicles. We recognize and acknowledge that “winning” a high-value item like an automobile from an eBay Seller, located perhaps hundreds of miles away, can be more “risky” and “unnerving” than purchasing a vehicle locally. In order to minimize this “risk” and assure your comfort and confidence, we cherry-pick only the most exceptional vehicles from our huge inventory to present for auction here on eBay.
2) We list them thoroughly and accurately. Every Gault eBay auction vehicle is then meticulously examined, carefully described and professionally photographed and/or videoed to show you visually and in words EXACTLY what will be delivered to you when YOU place the winning bid on your next Gault eBay auction.
3) We make it easy to communicate. Finally, we make the eBay auction process completely transparent and stress-free by offering TWO ways for us to effectively communicate with each other in order that you will get immediate personal response to all you needs, questions and concerns.
First, you can conveniently and discretely contact us through eBay messaging and be assured of a prompt, thorough and accurate reply.
And second, if you prefer that “personal” touch, you can phone our toll-free number - 1-877-217-4142 Ext. 422, to speak directly with our eBay Sales Specialist, Paul Glantzman. He will be completely knowledgeable of the specifications, features and unique history of our "Cherry Picked" vehicle. She will be happy to provide additional photos, discuss financing, delivery and shipping options, and even assist you with your bidding strategy.
You will truly love how you’ll feel when you place your winning bid on your next Gault eBay Auto auction. We, at Gault Auto Group, love how WE feel when we provide the most hassle-free, enjoyable and exciting auction experience here on eBay – before, during and after the close of bidding. This is how we work together to create stellar eBay transactions and completely satisfied customers.
“You’re Gonna LOVE the feel
of your Gault eBay deal!”
Thank you for participating in our auctions
and good luck bidding!

This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified. I have done my best to accurately describe this vehicle. It is up to the buyer to come see and further inspect the car before the end of the auction.-->
