Bad news all around. Very expensive to maintain (think W215).

Re: [MBZ] POOS CAR -- the car has a new A/C, and custom rims, but needs a new transmission Mercedes ML500 - $5, 000 (Wesley Chapel)

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

Agreed. For what it’s worth, he’s in an upscale old rich white guy 
neighborhood, so that might have some bearing on the mindset when it comes to 
pricing. I would deduct $$ for the wheels.

Re: [MBZ] POOS CAR -- the car has a new A/C, and custom rims, but needs a new transmission Mercedes ML500 - $5, 000 (Wesley Chapel)

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Reminds me I need to go pull a trans from a 164 at LKQ to swap into this 
06ML500 I picked up for cheap a year or two ago.  Or maybe try to 
rebuild the one in it, I think the hydraulic pump went bad as it really 
did not want to move.  Rebuilding less work I guess, and maybe more fun 
to learn that process, won't have to pull another one, pull this one, 
and reinstall. I like the 163 ML500 better, and the 164 doesn't have a 
tow pkg, I should probably try to find the nanny to put on it if I get 
the trans sorted.


This guy is in a altered state if he thinks it is worth $5k, but it 
would be interesting to see exactly what the issue is and what it would 
take to get it sorted.  If it is otherwise nice (ignoring the realtor 
spec) it might be worth $2k then figure $1-1.5k to sort it, although the 
fugly wheels detract from the value.

Well everyone knows where those places are, and in Texas that area qualifies as 
a neighborhood. 

Extra 1 in the price but looks interesting.

"Located in the Austin, Houston, San Antonio triangle”? How many hundreds of 
square miles does that cover? I can see DFW or the “research triangle” near 
Floyd, but I’ve never heard anyone classify the areas between Austin, Houston 
and San Antonio as a geographical area like that.

There are lots of other bad things in that ad, this one just jumped out at me.
