How is the maintenance on an older model Mercedes-Benz?
I recently bought a 2007 Mercedes GL450 with 75,000 miles. How is the maintenance and will it give problems once it reaches 100k?

Amazingly comfortable for such a large vehicle, very nice interior. Surprisingly fast, also great handling. Great sense of safety, as it is a large vehicle.
Fuel consumption, unsurprisingly, is high (15mpg city), though not terrible. dealership service is below par, very expensive and not customer friendly.Dec 23, 2012

This vehicle is in great condition. I will miss it very much. I must downgrade to a vehicle that is more suitable for a person without children or a huge family. It is equipped with eveything you could imagine and has alot of horsepower.Nov 27, 2011

Not bad for a big SUV. Has good acceleration but braking is not so impressive so gotta be careful in the city. Looks great and feels really nice. The luxury factor is pretty good in this vehicle. There are a few rattles from the third row but this seems to be temperature dependent. Aug 26, 2010

Best all round vehecle I ever owned! Excellent fuel consumption on this diesel powered beauty. Performs like hell for a diesel and only my previously owned BMW 540 will outperform it, but that was not an SUV. Best kept secret from Mercedes Benz ever. No squeks or rattles . Runs like a swiss watch! Best quality in workmanship and materials used. I needed to replace only 1 rear shock absorber and only because the dealer said I should. I could not feal the differance in handelling! It was covered under warrenty though. I must admit that it was my own fault though. I do not think the average SUV owner uses the tow capasity as mush as I do. I sold my chevy Avelance to buy this one but I use it hard just like I did the Avalance. I have 2 utillity trailors, the bigest an 18 footer that weighs empty about 1700 lbs as well as a 21 foot regal cuddy inbourt outboard boat and trailor of 1800 lbs dry weight. The Merc is my only towing vehecle an I use it to tow almost weekly. I have moved myself from Dauphin to Brandon and then from Brandon to Winnipeg with my Merc and tralors in the past two years. So to have 1 rear shock replaced as the only wear and tear is simply amazing!!!
The styling is years ahead of anything else on the road. Classically Mercedes Benz - Simply timeless. Styling is miles ahead of its closer competetor. On the highway I have recorded gass mileage with 3 people in the car as low as 8.2 l/ 100 km!!! Cheaper to run than my GTI Golf! This for a tru seven seater! Astonishing to say the least. I have not paid one sent towards maintenance in 3 years. Except for the services which can be pricy at times, but I pay the serveces with a smile 'cos I know that is where the expences stops. The most fun to drive. A tru wolf in sheeps clothing. My next car you might ask? You have quest it --A Merc of course!!!May 27, 2010

This is the best car i have ever owned. Runs unbelievably strong for a SUV. Drives like a sports car. Turns on a dime. Rides very well. My car has a special package with OEM 20"rims and tires are very expensive but drive good. Tires get about 22,000 miles if you take care of them.Aug 29, 2009

Very good silent SUV - good handling on the comfortable side this is no sportscar but a car you enjoy ride for long trips you are not going too get tired driving this, good mileages for this type of car. But this is not the best for off roading. Jan 02, 2009

I drove the GL450 to S.F. few weeks ago and it performed very well. Kids love the DVD player and drives my wife crazy because she can't see what's going with the movie. Only one thing bugs me about this truck. Storage space is very limited. However, I love the bluetooth, power and seat comfort. It cost $100 every time I fill it up but my fault for buying a SUV.Jul 29, 2008
