House, I think I need help

Was cruising down, heard the normal Benz warning, turns out a battery indicator lit up, ain’t never seen it, fear catch me first cos I know Benzima would drink money if there’s an issue, when I sha parked and later on the car, it was gone, no warning

I hate working on my car except for servicing so I’m mostly concerned about the fact that it would be worked on

The MDX is better. You'll lose a lot of features going to the Mercedes plus you'll spend more on maintenance and repair. Nobody @me please. The arguments you guys get into over cars I no get energy.

Hi Guy's.

Really need your advice, I have been driving a Peugeot 406 for the last 6yrs & I plan to upgrade to a Benz.

My friend advised I go for the 2005 Mercedes e350. Problem is I have heard a lot of frightening stories about the Benz, some say it has high cost of maintenance & that the fuel consumption is high but the most scary are the cost of spare parts.

Though I am a complete novice when it comes to Benz, I must confess I am already madly in love with the e350.

Please advise.

i stand to be corrected. No 04/05 ml320. That engine was stopped in 02. From 03 it was the 3.7L engine designated ML350

Cannot thank you enough @Fogman. These Abj guys lied that they can connect with the factory setup and were about to bypass just before
I put a call through to Fogman and he intervened....in the nick of time!!!

I don't think there's any C280 2009.
Definitely not an AMG too,unless you mean AMG package.
And I'd advise not to buy it,the last thing you'd want is an old luxury car.
The lustre wouldn't be there no more and it would be fragile like cabin biscuit.
Buy gs350 2008 instead cool

Lose alot of what? Lol, I beg to differ.
Features like what ?
The MDX is anything but feature packed. As far as value for money and fun driving go I cannot fault her, but advance tech? Mba. The 550 blows her out of the water.

I'm not even trying to compare the 2013 MDX to the 2013 ML550. they're not in the same class if you ask me. I'm just looking for hands on experience with owning a 550 locally. Which I consider an upgrade from the MDX.

Interior styling/ luxury and exterior styling - 550 wins
Performance - 550 wins
Crash/ Safety ratings - 550 wins
Advanced Tech features - 550 wins
Handling - both great
Fuel economy - A V8 Biturbo cannot possibly be expected to have the same as a naturally aspirated V6. More power mens more energy consumption. The 550 doesn't even do too badly in comparison to the MDX

Reliability and local availability of parts are my primary concern about the 550
