Please why do most users of the 1st generation M-class e.g ML320, ML350 etc always drive without using A.C.? Is it that the A.C. easily develops fault and expensive to repair or that it consumes a lot of fuel? Who can help answer this?

INDUSTRIALFAN:

Bro I need an advice. Have you used yours long enough? How costly are the parts and regular maintenance?

My 1992 300 SL AC still works

INDUSTRIALFAN:
parts re very much affordable and easy to source and the ride is very reliable too. Just make sure to do your maintenance regularly. I do mine as often as once in 5 or 6 months and she runs like a beast. Fuel consumption even with AC is very impressive. Mine is a 2000 ML320 V6

INDUSTRIALFAN:
o boy.. that's some good classic you've got there o.... Very beautiful car... Especially riding with your hair in the wind

Rindo69:
Well unfortunately the hydraulics operating the roof are leaking so I have to turn to a weather expert and make sure no rain is forecast before opening the top manually. If weather just change like this, takes a good 5-6 minutes to close it ... but yeah it’s a lovely car

deebrownneymar:
