Mercedes ML AMG 6x6* Pick up truck - yours for only £9995!

(....currently only 4x6)

Just adding a roof box would have provided any extra carrying capacity needed.
This thing is plain ridiculous looking. Also, why the AMG when it's a standard car..

6 wheels 4 driven. Seems pointless really.

10 grand for something that looks like they've made it for a Top Gear challenge. Wow...

People would literally stand, point and laugh at that being driven down the road.

I would have expected a bit more in the seller's description too, like a bit of info about the work done etc.

Worse than that, they appear to have blocked entrance to the other normal boot! So have in fact reduced load carrying ability...

Why would you include pictures of those tyres?

P6000s and cracked to buggery...

Because they're an honest dealer who's not trying to hide the true condition of a vehicle they've taken in PX and need to move on?

They're good honest pictures but surely it isn't worth 3 grand? A good example of a low miler not being the measure of a nice car.

Had MOT advisory in 2016 "all tyres starting to perish". Owner didn't care.

Thats a grand on a good day. Should be in the overpriced cars thread.

Is it legal to sell a car with tyres in that state?

[Don Roque]

That heap of st is probably about a third of what they're asking, if that.

Might explain why the owner has traded it in for a SsangYong. Maybe they're not a "car person"

That might be why they've taken it down. Unless it sold...

[Fun Bus]

What does the law say about tyre condition when selling a car?

I'm sure someone will tell us but I can't imagine it's not legal. People buy cars in all sorts of conditions. You'd have to be a very non-car person not to notice there's something very wrong with those tyres. I bet they're the originals.

Have we had this one yet?.....
