Identical in weight and MPG, the 350 had 254 ft-lb @ 3000rpm, 232hp @ 5750.
The 320 had 229ft-lb @ 3000, 215hp @ 5600. Don't ask me why the larger 
displacement version breathed better at high rpm, maybe the 350 has a slightly 
hotter cam or bigger valves?

Because of the 3.7L engine or the green-black metallic paint?
Unfortunately, green-black isn't really green. I searched for blue MLs when I

Unfair advantage to the code reader boys who will know the car is junk.  The

 They maybe suck the codes out and blank it.

Re: [MBZ] My latest pre-Regina’d copart purchase

2018-04-27 Thread OK Don via Mercedes
*According to Wikipedia:*

"Mercedes-Benz revised and updated the W163 in 2001 for the 2002 model
year. Styling updates involved the fitment of new head- and tail-lamp
lenses, front and rear bumpers, new alloy wheels on most variants, the
relocation of the side turn signals from the fenders to the side-view
mirrors, and various interior trim changes. At the same time, the ML 430
was replaced by the 5.0-litre V8-powered ML 500 and a new 4.0-litre V8
turbodiesel ML 400 CDI became available in Europe. The following year, *in
2002, Mercedes-Benz launched the ML 350 fitted with a 3.7-litre V6 engine.*
The ML 350 replaced the ML 320 in some markets, but supplemented it in
others.

The W163 was available as a seven-seat version, with two seats in a third
row. Access was problematic and the seats were not suitable for large
adults so the seven seater ML-Class was discontinued after the 2005 model
year and replaced by the larger GL-Class.

The previous Popemobile  was
based on a W163 series ML 430 and has been in service since July 2002.[13]

Volkswagen  had offered to build
a new vehicle based on the Touareg
, but Pope Benedict XVI
 opted to continue using
his predecessor's Mercedes-Benz-manufactured vehicle."

What's 'secondary damage to side' mean, other than the mirror is busted off?
Front damage appears to be the lower valance. 
Fog bezels aren't great, but at least I can see the reflector through the lens 
on the right one. 
Interior looks OK, but the nets are shot as always. 
Can you bid on it? If minimum bid was under $200 I'd throw a bid on it just to 
make sure private individuals were allowed to bid.

$600. Its a later model one, it’s got low miles for most I have seen. And the 
carfax shows it had extensive work at the dealer including a complete engine 
rebuild for some reason at 30k miles. It’s close to my mothers so I will go see
