Hola, todo el mundo!
I am going to look at a GLE 350 this Saturday and I wanted to prick your prospective brains.
I need to what what I should be looking for when I buy it i.e known issues ect. What gas mileage are you getting in the real world? Most reviews i've read seem to show that the GLE is a reliable car, what are your thoughts on this?
If I missed this info on the forum a link would be appreciated.

Thank you everyone!

I have a 2017 GLE 350. We love the overall quality, especially the smooth, quiet ride. Has plenty of power and great handling. We also love the Apple Car Play...we use WAZE as a navigation app all the time and play our own music...including Pandora radio. The gas mileage is not great...avg 21mpg and uses premium fuel. A $50 fill up is not uncommon.
We had a Toyota premium van...which for $48,000 included front and rear bumper sensors and adaptive cruise control.
To get adaptive cruise control on the GLE was part of a $7000 option package and thus very rare in dealer stock, even if you were willing to pay that stupid price. We miss those safety features.
We bought a CPO, which was $12,000 less than new and had a better than new warranty! That first year depreciation is big.
Overall I would buy one again despite the lack of some useful features and the high fuel costs.

GLE is a reliable car that's true. I would advice you to check vin code and find all the info about the car.
I agree! You just should make sure the car wasn't in an accident and so on. Because I remember on my mind so many stories when the buyers of second-hand cars were disappointed finding out that there were done so many changes like engine, airbags and so on. To find this out you should check vin code, so here is a vin decoder, you should just follow the link.

I am not a fan of SUVs and crossovers from Mercedes, I like their sedans more, but I can not say that their SUV is a bad car, it is very comfortable, comfortable and powerful, but everywhere I read about the GLE, everywhere write about the main problem it is reliability. Everywhere they write that they drive it for about 60 thousand, and then they start having serious engine problems. I read this on one forum, if you want to read it, then Check out the replicar club website, but I still think it is a great car. Everyone has their flaws.
