Even the Cruise control works perfect which is rare for these cars. It has a aftermarket Cd player that works great also the power antenna works and extends when the button is pushed. I bought the car from a couple who lives here in wi. they owed the car for about 9 years. It was there 5 th car and only driven by the wife.It never seen snow or a winter . There is no rust on the body and its very solid . The rocker panels are like new as are the jack points. Her husband was a mercedes mechanic in madison so he did all the work for himself so i dont have any records on the car . But My dad and I did go through it and we inspected the car to a high standard. The tires are in excellent condition, the brakes feel very good and stop well. We changed the Oil with shell rotella 15/40 which is the same oil that was used by the 2 previous owners. New fuel filters, I replaced the headlight doors to make the front apperance look like new again. The car was just highly detailed and looks amazing. This is the last year of the 123 300 D it was considered the best car Mercedes ever built with many recordings of the engines going 1 million miles . I believe this one can easily. It has alot of power and drives amazing. It doesn't shake at all and is very smooth. The transmission also shifts effortlessly and has no issues . I would drive this car to California tomorrow and back . There is not a better car to travel in. I did get about 35 mpg on my trip back which was nearly 200 miles. Please bid with confidence and check out the auto check its perfect and shows no accidents . I also have a copy for the new owner. Please call me with any questions you might have . I know someone will get a great car and last them many years. Steve 954-464-3515
Car has original spare tire and tools and first aid kit .
* There is a small chip in the chrome on the lower rear bumper and also a few hair lines checks in the paint which are from the original laquer again not noticable at all. I wanted to mention it but for the car being a 1985 I would say its a beautiful example.

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
Mercedes-Benz intros long-wheelbase E-Class for China
Thu, 25 Apr 2013Long-wheelbase sedans are a pretty hot commodity in China, and to keep up with the competition, Mercedes-Benz has introduced an extended version of the 2014 E-Class sedan at the Shanghai Motor Show. Audi, BMW, Volvo and even Cadillac offer extended versions of sedans specific to the Chinese market, and now the E-Class L, shown off in E400L guise, will give luxury sedan buyers in China yet another option.
Compared to the standard 2014 E-Class sedan, the new China-spec E-Class L has been stretched by 5.5 inches - all of which goes to the rear-seat passengers. According to an article on China View from earlier in the year, the market for chauffeur-driven cars is growing in the Asian nation, so automakers need long-wheelbase models like the E-Class L in order to fully compete. As for what powers this stretched E-Class, it's available in three models: the diesel E260L, the V6-powered E300L and the E400 Hybrid.
The redesigned E-Class and the all-new A-Class are just the first of 20 new Mercedes-Benz products that will be introduced into the Chinese auto market by 2015. Scroll down for the full press release on long-wheelbase E.
Race Recap: 2013 Japanese Grand Prix flips several scripts [spoilers]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Japan's Suzuka circuit is a great track that all the drivers love, but it doesn't usually provide the most thrilling, head-to-head racing. Where it does excel, however, is with surprises and "What just happened there?!" moments, and this year it was no different.
It started with Mark Webber in his Infiniti Red Bull Racing out-qualifying his teammate Sebastian Vettel for the first time this year. They were followed closely by Lewis Hamilton in the first Mercedes-AMG Petronas, the still-solid Romain Grosjean again outdoing teammate Kimi Räikkönen, Felipe Massa racing for another seat in Formula One and putting his Ferrari in fifth, then Nico Rosberg in the second Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and Räikkönen continuing to do himself no favors by qualifying tenth.
For the second year in a row, the lights going out was the cue to start the first corner action...
