Mercedes ML - what year do I need to buy to avoid the rust?

[buzzer]

A few years ago I looked at buying a Mercedes ML 320, but every one I looked at had rust on it. I was looking at 2003 -4 cars at the time. I gave up in the end...

I quite fancy one again and notice they changed model in 2005 which ran to 2012. Do these still have rust problems?

Also any tips on which engine / specification to go for on the 2005 - 2012 cars?

Thats comforting to know guys. I looked at a 2006 one over the weekend and it was perfect body wise.

Do they all have the air suspension?

Looks like Air suspension was an option, thats off the list then...

I am struggling to find a buyers guide though...

Thanks for the replies. I am off tomorrow to look at a couple and will post back when I have seen them.
