The MERCEDES-BENZ M CLASS (2005-08) ML280 5DR SUV 3.0 CDI 190 EDITION 10 TIP AUTO7 is a large, premium family SUV, offering a higher-riding alternative to estate cars and a more road-focused choice than a traditional off-roader. Its diesel engine and automatic gearbox suit relaxed, long-distance driving, while five doors make everyday access straightforward. Mycarcheck.com records 311 look-ups across 140 distinct VINs, giving a useful sample of cars checked. The average recorded private-sale value is £3,400, with 126,000 miles and around five previous keepers; annual mileage averages 7,000. These figures describe vehicles checked, not a guaranteed price or condition, so inspect each example carefully. The ML280 suits families and regular long-distance drivers wanting comfort, space and a commanding view, rather than low costs or compact city manners. Against BMW X5 and Audi Q7 rivals, it offers understated Mercedes appeal and a versatile, practical character, particularly well on longer family trips.
