The Appeal

Sitting near the top of the M-Class lineup, the W166-generation ML550 pairs a muscular 4.7-litre twin-turbocharged V8 with the refinement and technology for which the marque is renowned. With permanent all-wheel drive via the 4MATIC system, it offers a blend of strong performance and all-weather capability that few rivals could match.

This 2014 example is particularly noteworthy for its extensive factory specification. Finished in Cavansite Blue Metallic over beige leather, it was ordered with an impressive $27,960 in optional extras, lending it a comprehensive suite of comfort and technology features. The leather-clad dashboard, front seat climate control, memory package, panoramic sunroof and ash brown wood trim create a well-appointed interior, while Distronic Plus adaptive cruise control, the Driving Assistance Package and the COMAND navigation system create an effortless driving experience.

Originally delivered to the US market, the car comes with a USA title and Dutch import documentation, with EU customs duties and VAT already paid, making it ready for registration in Europe. It would make an exceptional long-distance touring vehicle, a high-end family wagon or a capable heavy-duty hauler for those who prioritise a refined, V8-powered driving experience.
