I am considering one with the premium 3 package with the air suspension. Any one used it off road? Reliabilty? I own an LR3 and I am trying to get better mileage while preserving my ability to leave paved roads. What mileage? Thanks for your thoughts. |

Wife and I currently have 3 cars and I'm trying to get it down to two:-) Two of our 3 cars fit our uses well but I'd like one that covers it as a whole. Thinking the R 320 CDI might just do it. But have never owned a MB - the reliability thing is my major hang up. And Concern Diesel I'm familiar with - my first car was diesel - great car took more abuse than any car should ever endur but thats what happens when a 16yr old had his first car. It wasn't a MB. Anyway the milege the CDI returns - the road trip comfort big Plus - and the hauling/ light trailering ability is ideal along with the AWD. It's not MB like for owners to do their own basic maint - but I like to know enough about my cars to know when I'm getting the BS line from the shop or can fix it enough to make it home on a road trip. Having lots of experience with Diesels I'd probably want to know how to replace the fuel filter and have an extra on board for long road trips. Anyway very good thread - any additional comments on reliability with the 07's - 7spd transmission - AWD system? - Air suspension system seems like a great idea though not a must have if they are known for complicated issues etc. Thoughts? I like to keep my cars a long time so cars that have low numbers of odd quality issues are my top interest. Hence my 94 Land Cruiser and my 2000 Subaru which I hope to replace with a single vehicle
