The MERCEDES-BENZ M CLASS (2012-16) ML250 5DR SUV 2.1CDI BLUETECR SS 204 EU6 SPECIAL EDITION COMAND 17INCH ALLOY 7G-T AUTO is a large, premium five-door SUV, sitting above ordinary family crossovers in size, comfort and price. Its diesel engine and automatic gearbox make it suited to relaxed motorway travel as well as everyday journeys. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 305 checks covering 129 different vehicles, a useful sample of interest in this version. Checked examples averaged 100,000 miles and around 7,000 miles a year, with just over three previous keepers; the average private-sale valuation was £11,300. These figures are a guide, not a price or condition guarantee. The Special Edition’s COMAND system, 17-inch alloys and understated, upscale cabin give it a distinctive edge, while the ML250 is generally a more comfort-focused choice than sporty rivals such as the BMW X5. It suits families, regular commuters and drivers wanting space and a commanding view, particularly for longer trips. As with any used luxury SUV, check service history, mileage and condition carefully.
