Intro
New models develop gradually from their predecessors - or at least some of them do. The Mercedes M-class is rather different. A greater step forward from its predecessor, the utilitarian G-Wagen, could hardly be imagined. In interior ambience and on-road ability, it's the difference between Grozny and Guildford. Although interior quality was initially questionable, the M-class graduated into a credible Range Rover rival and until the launch of the BMW X5, represented the ultimate expression of 4x4 urban chic. More often seen clambering gamely up a kerb in the high street than up a mountain in the Peak District, the M-class is nevertheless a very capable vehicle both on-road and off. It's also a roomy and practical proposition for those willing to pay for the three pointed star.
