Hi all...

Been lurking around the forum for a while so I thought I'd better register and say thanks for all the really useful information that I've found here. I got my 320 around 6 months ago - test drove about 20 of them before I found one in really superb condition, only 30k on the clock and with all the toys on it :-) - gotta have those toys right? I have to say its my favourite MB so far (previously had a C and then an SLK). Like many I've had a few minor issues with the ML such as leaky headlights, rattling tailgate, squeaky rear brakes etc - all now fixed thanks to the info I've found here, although it was nearly a case of either the squeaky brake goes or the car does - damn that was driving me nuts ! Well thats it for now...although I'm sure I'll be posting some questions soon !

Re: Hi all...

Thanks, since that pic was taken I've added some chrome grill strips as well, gives the front end a nicer look

RE: Hi all...

For fear of starting another huge trail on the subject of bumper updates ..... (many have done this already - switched to facelift bumpers from 1998,1999,2000,2001 up to Sept. models)

You can change the bumpers by moving (cutting off & welding in new position, or screwing on new self made) mount points.

I have documented this somewhat in the past....
