I have been waiting for a new set of tyres for my ML 500 and as one is a little close to the limit on one edge I have been using my 6.9 each day for work.
I generally drive 400 to 500 km per week so it must be a bit of a shock for the old girl (who turned 30 on the 24th of January) to be treated like a "bought one" but so far she has not missed a single beat.
It is delightful to drive the low stressed torquey motor through the Perth Hills and the water temp has sat doggedly on 80 degrees with the odd wander up to 85 in the warm weather.
Only complaint is a squeak in the interior fan at low speed which is intermittent and didn't do it when the fan was removed from the car for checking (of course).
Should be an even better drive when I have finished replacing all suspension rubbers and ball joints.
