Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You often load a pushchair, dog or bulky bags: an estate layout could be useful. Try your own luggage rather than judging by the exterior size.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 135,285 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You need servicing to fit a tight budget: Spanner estimates higher maintenance costs for this type. Get quotes for the exact engine and gearbox before committing.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The 2016 GL-Class (the model was rebranded as GLS around this time) is a large Mercedes SUV commonly sold with 3.0-litre V6 diesel engines and a 7- or 9-speed automatic. Many examples have 4MATIC and optional AIRMATIC air suspension—great for ride comfort but costly to repair if the compressor or struts fail. Check the DPF/AdBlue systems for error history and be prepared for above-average fuel, servicing and insurance costs given the vehicle's size and premium parts.
- Air suspension condition — compressor noise, sagging at rear, uneven ride height
- Automatic gearbox service history and shift quality (harsh or delayed shifts can indicate overdue fluid/repair)
- DPF and AdBlue system operation and any stored regeneration faults or warning lights
- Signs of heavy towing/use — check towbar, rear suspension, brake wear and transmission strain
- Electrical items and third-row mechanics — seat motors, door/boot sensors and infotainment faults
