1979 Mercedes Benz 300D Diesel
Veggie Oil conversion

It has new tires. Odometer reads 180,000 miles but it stopped working. The milage is around 215,000 and still going strong! I've been driving this car since 2009 and have never had any problems. I drove it from Los Angeles to Georgia and she drove great. This car has no rust and has a solid exterior. A few minor scratches and there is a small crack in the windshield. The interior is in good condition. Normal wear and tear for a car this age. I get compliments on how great she looks everywhere I go. The driver side seat has some cracks and so does the dash but I have a dash cover. All the windows roll down except the front passenger side but it just stopped working,
Runs on either diesel or SVO (Straight Vegetable Oil) or WVO (Waste Vegetable Oil) or any combination. I've seen a lot of these wagons and I've never seen one that looks this good. When I bought this car in 2009 I paid a great mechanic a few thousand dollars to go over this car with a fine tooth comb. I'm only selling because I'm a new father and need the extra cash.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.

Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.
