Daughter dearly loves her ('08?) GL320cdi but her husband (who pays the bills) is constantly amazed at the number, frequency, and cost of repairs. One large expense was finally improved by buying Michelins best grade of tires which lasted much longer than any other. If you buy a GL be sure there is a mechanic who knows how to fix them, or a dealer within a reasonable distance.
