1982 Mercedes-Benz 300SD. 5 cylinder diesel with an automatic transmission. Approximately 250,000 miles. Daily driver. Starts, runs, drives fine. I've owned this vehicle since 1997, and put about 118K miles on it in that time. Other than routine maintenance, I've not had any issues with the car. I bought it from a dealer, and I have quite a few maintenance records from the previous owners. I was told that the transmission had been rebuilt at some point. Since I've owned it, it's been kept in a carport. For the past few years, it's been driven very little. My oil change records show about 3K miles per year since 2006.

The car is not perfect, so please read carefully before bidding, look at all the photos, and ask questions. The car is located in Lexington, KY. You are welcome to look at it here, or contract with a local professional mechanic to check it over. If you'd like me to take other photos, please ask.

Body: paint is pretty good. It was repainted at some point, and there are rust spots showing on the driver's door, at the right rear fender well and a few other smaller places. See the photos. No collision damage, and to the best of my knowledge it's not ever had any bodywork (other than the repaint and a previous repair of rust spots). Electric sunroof works. Interior is fair. Rear seats are in excellent shape, front passenger seats have cracks in the leather. Dash has one crack on the driver's side.

Engine: Starts fine, even in cold weather - block heater is installed for very cold conditions. Runs fine. Oil pressure is good - photo of instruments is taken with the engine running. Battery is new.

All five tires have good tread.

Here's a list of all the miscellaneous issues I'm aware of:

Dash lights are out

Power door locks don't work, but they work manually

Passenger side windshield wiper doesn't move. It's stuck in the parked position. Driver's wiper works fine.

Odometer quit moving a year or so ago. It says 243315, but it has no more than 250,000. Speedometer works fine.

No radio, but there's a space for one. The original Blaupunkt quit some years ago. Wiring is still in place.

Air conditioning is feeble at best

Left turn signal doesn't self-cancel

Slight clunk in the right front - I assume it's a ball joint.

A few missing plastic bits, such as the buttons on the end of the passenger's seat adjustment switch.

I would imagine that a thorough inspection by a professional mechanic would discover other things I'm not aware of, so please bid accordingly and if possible inspect the car in person or arrange for a local professional to check it out for you. I've done my best to accurately represent the condition of this car, but I'm not an expert on this or any other car !

I'm also advertising the car locally, so I do reserve the right to end the auction early.

Again, please ask if there are any questions.

Thanks for looking.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept gets mobbed in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

If the reception it received at the Shanghai Motor Show is any judge of marketplace acceptance, Mercedes-Benz has a hit on its hands in the form of the GLA Concept. And we can understand why - we're quickly becoming fans of Mercedes' recent styling language, as defined by new models like the CLA and this GLA Concept.
The big news on the exterior front are the headlamp clusters, which have frickin' laser beams attached to their foreheads embedded inside that are capable of projecting videos and images on a screen. Plus, a pair of video cameras are mounted on the roof that can be used to capture driving excitement or removed and taken with you. How cool is that? We just hope they have a substantial locking mechanism to prevent would-be thievery...
If the exterior is mostly ready for production, with a few of the more outlandish elements moved to the trash bin - like, for instance, laser-beam headlamps and removable action cams - the interior is a true custom job that screams concept loud and clear. There are all kinds of jewel-like finishes inside, along with transparent surfaces showing what looks like metal latticework underneath and some awfully thick looking leather with massive exterior stitching done by hand similar to what you'd find on a baseball glove.

Chris Harris and David Coulthard wring out a Mercedes Fintail at the N"urburgring

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

If there's one thing we've learned from the latest video from Drive, it's that the combination of Chris Harris and David Coulthard will produce some very quotable moments. Take this exchange, for example.
DC: "We are by some way the slowest."
CH: "But we're in a class of three cars, apparently."

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA order guide leaked

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The dealer order guide for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA has made its way online courtesy of the crew at CLAForums.com, and not only does it shed light on the ways buyers will be able to configure the entry-level sedan, it talks specific option pricing. Shoppers will be able to select between the CLA250 and CLA250 4Matic, and the option sheet should offer a number of packages to suit buyer tastes, including a sport package with tweaked fascias and unique wheels. Bi-xenon headlamps and 18-inch alloys may also be had as well as a panoramic sunroof and a collision avoidance system. The CLA will be available with a number of active safety systems on board, including lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, park assist and blind spot assist, to name a few.
The new sedan comes in 10 colors, including a very dashing purple Mecedes-Benz calls Northern Lights Violet, and there are a total of four interior trim finishes. The automaker hasn't released final pricing of all models just as of yet - we do know from Mercedes' Kate Upton Super Bowl ad that the car will start at $29,900 - but you can check out individual option and package pricing in the gallery. You can also find more information over at CLAForums.com.
