PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AUCTION PRIOR TO BIDDING
Your bidding on a extremely nice and VERY CLEAN 1999 Mercedes Benz ML430 V8 with 133,197 "Actual Miles". This very clean ML was recently used as a new car trade in and is being offer with NO RESERVE. This is an ABSOLUTE SALE and the truck will be sold to the highest bidder regardless of the ending price of the auction so I encourage you to bid to WIN!
Vehicle Condition
I would consider the vehicle to be in "Well Above Average" condition based on the year and mileage on the car, please read below for specific details.
The Exterior
The exterior of the ML430 looks and appears to have been a very well cared for vehicle and it shows very well. The factory original paint is in excellent condition and shows with a bright shine and luster. There is no obvious signs of previous paint or body work on this car, it is 100% factory original paint. I'm sure the SUV shows normal exterior wear with possibly a minor scratch or minor door ding here or there, but nothing worth noting or disclosing. Overall the exterior of the ML430 shows extremely well and it certainly looks like someone took very good care of this Mercedes, you will NOT be disappointed with this truck.
The Interior
The interior is much like the exterior and shows great and appears to have been a well cared for car. The leather seats are in "like new" condition with the exception of some minimal wear on the driver seat from getting in and out of the vehicle. The carpets are fresh, clean and free from any major stains or imperfections. I assume the car was previously owned by a non-smoker as the truck does not smell of a smoker and it does not show like it was a smokers vehicle. The interior overall is very close to flawless, if there is any flaws at all. The only known interior flaws is the drivers seat has been sat in over the last 8+ years.....the interior is like I said very clean....Again you wont be disappointed with this baby!
Mechanically
Mechanically the Mercedes is strong and in excellent running order. The motor fires right up and runs very quiet and smooth. The automatic transmission shifts out perfectly without any hesitation or slippage between shifts as you work you way up to highway speeds. At highway speed the ML430 is 100% perfect and a great driver and easy to handle and comfortable to drive.
The A/C blows cold and all the electrical power options work and function like they should including the power windows, power mirrors, cruise control, and so on. The tires have approximently 75% or less treadwear remaining on a nice set of performance tires. There are no known mechanical problems with the ML430 and the truck hits the road 100% right, we have one set of keys with both key fob that go with the truck.
Overall
Overall this is a Smoking Deal on a VERY CLEAN ML430 that shows obvious signs that it was a well cared for vehicle and was a new car trade in. The truck runs and drives great, hits the road right, and is priced below wholesale for a quick sale, serious buyer are encouraged to call me!
Our Disclaimer
We are a "Wholesale" dealer, we DO NOT have a retail car lot that you can walk up and buy vehicles from. We DO NOT take trade's as we do not mark up our vehicles to allow room for a trade in, so please dont ask. We are NOT mechanics, we are vehicle wholesalers and in most cases we have no idea of the service history behind vehicles we are selling. If your within a reasonable distance we STRONGLY encourage you to come inspect the vehicles for yourself and draw your own conclusions PRIOR to purchasing. For buyers who are further away we STRONGLY encourage you to order an independent inspection offered by ebay above.
Our item desciptions are based on our opinions of these vehicles based on year, mileage, and visable wear on each individual vehicle. We STRONGLY encourage you to come inspect the vehicles prior to bidding as our opinion might vary from your opinion. This is an auction to purchase a vehicle, if you bid on it you are expected to pay for it. We allow AMPLE time for you to come see, touch, feel, and drive the cars prior to the end of the auction. If you choose not to come before the end of the auction, your still expected to pay for the car should you win. Carfax Auto Check reports are YOUR OWN responsibility, we expect you to run your own reports and draw your own conclusions and bid accordingly. We encourage you to use common sense, if a vehicle is listed with 180k miles and the item description say's "Average" condition we are saying the vehicle shows normal wear for a car you would see with 180k, unless otherwise noted in the item description.
We do our absolute best to accurately describe our vehicles to the best of our judgement based on visable wear on every vehicle. We try to point out all known defects in every auction and try our best to describe these vehicles exactly as they are shown in the pictures. We encourage you to look closely at each picture, look at the details in the pictures. We are all human and not often do we forget to mention a flaw, but it has happend. We encourage you to look very closely at the pictures, the cars are sold "As Pictured", so if we overlooked a flaw shown in a picture the flaw comes with the car. Again we STRONGLY encourage you to come inspect the car's prior to bidding as our opinion might vary from yours. If you win the auction your expected to pay for it as outlined in the terms of the sale.
TITLE DELAYS
In most cases titles are not immediately avaliable for delivery when your there to pick up your vehicle. In most (90% of the time) cases title delays take roughly 3 days to a week to sort out, however some titles can take up to 30 days to arrive in our office after you have purchased and took delivery of your vehicle. Title delays are a normal part of every car dealers business which is why we are bonded and insured. If you have a specific question about a title delay please ask us before you buy, otherwise your expected to pay as outlined.
I'd be seriously surprised if the auction went the full distance due to what little money I need to get for this vehicle, so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime for any reason as the vehicle is also being offered locally for sale.
If you have any questions please feel free to call me at (256) 878-0200 - Office, Steve.

Terms Of Sale
Terms and Conditions are as follows:
There is a 20% NON-REFUNDALBE deposit due within 48hrs of the close of the sale payable by cashier check or money order only via Fed Ex, NO EXCEPTIONS. Unless you plan on picking up the vehicle within 48 hours and paying cash in person you have to send in the deposit.
Immediately after the auction ends we will send you an email with our contact information. We expect you to contact us the day the auction ends to set up payment and pickup/delivery options.
PLEASE ADD AN ADDITIONAL $200 FOR DOCUMENTATION FEES.
We charge a doc fee on every vehicle we sell with no exceptions. The doc fee helps offset the cost of gas, cleaning supply's, office supply's, and all other insodental expense's that we incur to be able to offer these deals on ebay. Every car we sell gets a "light" clean up prior to taking pictures for ebay and delivery to the buyer which includes a hand wash and interior wipe down and vaccum, this is not a professional detail. Often times these vehicles have no gas in them when we get them so we have to put gas in them to get them back to our facility and in some cases they are transported by truck to our location.
Remaining balance is due within 5 days of the close of the sale payable by cash, cashiers check, money orders, or bank wire transfer. Cashiers Checks take up to 15 business days to clear our bank, so Bank Wire Transfers are our prefered method of payment. Alabama residents are required to pay sales tax and title fee's.
Due to the overwhelming amount of bogus cashiers checks we require that you pay in cash if you plan on picking up the vehicle in person and taking the title at the same time, no exceptions.
PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR PAYCHECKS DEPEND ON YOUR PAYMENT ARRIVING AS OUTLINED ABOVE, YOU WOULDNT LIKE IT IF SOMEONE DELAYED YOUR PAYCHECK SO PLEASE DONT DELAY OURS.
Shipping
Please contact Bama Auto Movers to get a shipping quote at (256) 878-8118.
Local Pickup
We invite you to fly in and pickup your vehicle at our location during normal business hours, and on the weekend by appointment only. Please note that due to the small size of our office staff we do not offer airport pick up serivces. To schedule an airport pick up from Birmingham or Huntsville Airports please call (256) 558-5087.
SMOG, Emmission testing, and Vehicle saftey inspections for registration purposes are the responsibility of the buyer and we CAN NOT gurantee them to pass out of state testing.
VEHICLE IS SOLD AS-IS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY
If you can not live up to the terms of this sale please DO NOT bid on this auction.
If you are new to ebay, have less than 5 completed transactions on your feedback, or any negetive feedback please call me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid. No offense but it is really expensive to run ads on ebay and I would hate to have an inexperienced buyer or deadbeat bidder at the end of this sale..
