and he would have given it hard work in the mud and water no doubt
My wife had one of the first ML430s ( 4.3 petrol V8) and it didn't give any real trouble but needless to say, it was a kid hauler and didn't get to see any proper action. It had pretty damn impressive on ice traction just with the electronic control- we followed a grit truck up the Turoa road first thing on a super icy morning with no chains. The truck eventually slid sideways into a ditch with the ice but the ML was quite happy. You couldn't walk on the road with the ice, got sat on my butt when I got out to have a look..
