Advertised on Pistonheads and Autotrader.

Had very little interest. Priced reasonably I think at £18,295 with 29,000 miles on it.

Only thing against it is it hasn't got leather.

The only people that call are chancing to try and get it cheap before they go and buy the C220CDi instead. Having driven both the 270CDi is the far more satifying drive in that effortless, wafty, Merc kinda way....

Rant over. Selling cars can be tedious can't it!?!

On the other hand... I wouldn't buy a car without leather unless it was absurdly cheap. Maybe your potential purchasers are feeling the same way?

Gotta agree slightly on the leather.. especially if it's in a dull colour.

Why don't MB do that MB tex leather-like stuff anymore? That was great, I know many who prefer it to leather as it's tougher and easier to keep!

i am in the market for a ML. I have seen other ML's for sale in autotrader and main dealers etc. They all seem to come with leather. Personally I wouldnt be interested in one that doesnt have it. Have you considered the idea of replacing the interior? I did it on a Golf GTI colour concept from a scrapped VR6. Cost about £1000.
Incidentally, I saw a silver 2000 ML 430 fully loaded with 56k for £16k this week, they do seem to take a hit!! gd luk
