This is the one, what a dream boat!  Beautiful and fast Mercedes 190e 2.3-16.  16 valve Mercedes Cosworth from 1986.  I am the 3rd owner, have owned it for the past 12 years and it has only 55k original miles.  I bought it from the 2nd owner in 2002 and drove it more often when I first bought it but now only drive it once a month on nice days.  No winters, only the occasional sunny day.  Garage kept.  It was a third car so I just enjoyed it here and there.  It's fast and runs like a top!  

A little history about this car:  It's a 1986 and was imported brand new to the US in December of 1985.  My paperwork from the DOT says it arrived in the US on 12/28/85. I bought it from the 2nd owner.  It was the wife's car, she was a stay at home mom, and didn't use it much.  When I bought it, she had a baby's car seat in the back!  It is European with the faster engine and it shows.  It has more horsepower and it's a blast to drive.  I have a ton of paperwork with it.  Service records from the past 15 years for tune-ups, etc for around $6,000.  A lot of service was done at Mercedes of White Plains in NY. 

Condition: Great!  I'd say it is an 8 out of 10.  It's fast and runs like a top. It has a 5 speed transmission, the dogleg transmission.  The exterior is probably an 8.  It's all original paint, etc., but it has a couple chips and a couple scratches.  There is no rust and the car is extremely good but not perfect. There are some buff swirls on the rear spoiler.  The very bottom part of the side skirts have a couple spots where the black is worn off.  That's about it.  The wheels are mint, the spare wheel is mint.  They are the original factory wide wheels.  The tires only have a couple thousand miles and the spare tire has never been used.  The interior is also about an 8.  It is excellent but not perfect.  The leather seats are extremely good but there are a couple of tiny wear spots, no rips or anything.  One of the rear seat belt buckles is broken but works fine.  The window molding on the back two doors are coming up a little.  The display isn't working on the stop watch in the dash.  That's about it.  The rest is just about in excellent condition.  I believe the A/C needs a freon charge.   The radio and rear speakers were updated in the early 2000s but I have the original beckers radio if you want it.  I forgot to picture it.  All gauges work great.  Dash is nice.  It has an AMG steering wheel which  was on it when it was imported to the US.  It has the original manuals and tools.  No leaks.

I bought the car because it was in excellent shape with very few miles.  I did a carfax when I purchased it in 2002 and I still have it.  It's clean with no issues.  I can provide a copy if you email me.  The car is extremely nice.  I have the NY state title.  I'm not a mechanic so I don't know all the technical stuff but please email me with questions and I'll try to answer them as best as I can.  This is a beauty!!!  And there is no reserve so the highest bid wins!  The car is located in Amherst, NH.  Feel free to email if you want to see it/test drive it.

Again, please email me with any questions.  I'll try to answer them as best I can and can take more pictures upon request.  Thank!  I've never had it professionally waxed or detailed.  I'm sure it would look fantastic if it was.

Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.

LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.

Mercedes S-Class Magic Body Control ad is clucking awesome

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

This is a new ad from Mercedes-Benz. At no point does it show an automobile. Instead, it stars animals, but not the sort you might normally see in car commercial. This ad is all about chickens. It is bizarre, to say the least, with Diana Ross and the Supremes belting it out in the background, but it all kind of comes together when you realize just what Mercedes is hawking (yeah, pun intended).
It's for the manufacturer's Magic Body Control, found on the new S-Class. The system basically analyzes the road and prepares the suspension accordingly, leading to a ride that is, in the words of our own Chris Paukert "nothing short of spooky." You can read about it in our full review of the 2014 S550. Take a look below for the 53-second spot.
