I purchased this vehicle in Missouri from a private seller. He told me the original owner was a doctor who belonged to the Mercedes Benz Club of America. It still has this sticker on windsheld. All four 240 D floor mats are in good shape and in place. I have the car virtually rust free and have done some other repairs. The rear seat had some torn places in stitching and I re-stitched it. Also, I replaced both half shafts and rebuilt both front fenders. After I finished the driver's side front fender by the signal light I noticed a slight indentation. I did not feel it was worth it to re-sand and fill in so I left it. It is hard to notice unless you strain your eyes to look at it, . Also, I replaced with new the driver's side signal light and both headlight doors. I touched up some minor chip places in car so if you look hard the paint is a little darker in some areas. I will include a can of touch up paint to the buyer. The original 1st aid kit is in place and all of the gauges work, including the clock. I have replaced all fluids with new and have added Lucas oil stabilizer to rear end with 80-90 gear oil. I also installed a Wolverine engine heater. The car cruises easily at 70-80 mph. I will be driving it until sold so the mileage will change some. These cars are hard to find, especially 4 speed manuals. I am a Mercedes fan and have had 2 of these, but at this time because of finances the wife and I would like to sell this car. These cars will run a long time. Solid engine and solid 123 frame. I believe this was one of the German's best.

Daimler names Bernd Pischetsrieder to supervisory board
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Some executives in the automotive industry stay with one company for their entire careers, while others bounce from one to the other, often leaving their indelible mark on each automaker at which they serve. Bob Lutz is certainly an example of the latter. So is Lee Iacocca, having presided over Ford and later charing the Chrysler board. Carlos Tavares was chief operating officer of Renault before being nominated as chief executive at PSA Peugeot Citroën. But as far as the Germans go, nobody's jumped from the leadership of one automaker to the next quite like Bernd Pischetsrieder - especially now that he's been named to the supervisory board of Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler.
An engineer by training, Pischetsrieder started his career at BMW in 1973, eventually rising to the office of CEO after twenty years. There he remained until 1999, only to be dismissed after orchestrating BMW's takeover of the Rover Group (of which only the Mini brand remains in the company's portfolio, the other brands having been sold off after his dismissal).
The next year he was named chairman of Volkswagen's Seat brand, and rose to the chairmanship of the entire Volkswagen Group two years later. Despite a largely successful four-year tenure (that gave birth, incidentally, to the Bugatti Veyron), disagreements with supervisory board chairman Ferdinand Piëch saw him leave the helm at VW AG, focusing his attention on the Scania truck division. He's since been touted as a potential chief executive for Opel and for Continental, but neither potential was apparently realized.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale
Fri, 10 May 2013There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.
Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold
Wed, 08 Feb 2012Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.
