I mean, why settle for tapa, tocino or longganisa when you can have an authentic German banger with extra rice to start your day off?

Sure, we’ve had a smattering of largely gray market convertibles and coupes for the past few decades; but for the most part, the Mercedes-Benz model that instantly comes to mind starts with the prefix C, E, or S.

Thanks to the efforts of CATS Motors, however, we’re enjoying many more letters of the alphabet as far as Mercedes-Benz models are concerned. We’ve now got the G, ML and GL SUVs; the beautiful CL coupe and CLS sedans; as well as the SL and SLK convertible hardtops.

So, if by the end of this article I will sound like I enjoyed my time with the Mercedes Benz ML350, it’s probably because I did. That doesn’t mean that I didn’t try to view the ML350 from a critical perspective. Rather, it may mean that the ML350 is quite the performer.

Introduced in 1996 the 1st-generation SLK wowed the world with its compact dimensions (for a Mercedes), spritely supercharged performance and its piece de resistance, a collapsible steel roof that transforms the sporty two-seater from a hardtop to an open-air roadster at the touch of a button.
