Here i am selling a 1985 Mercedes 300TD turbo diesel wagon .1985 was the last year Mercedes built the wonderful 123 series estate . This particular car was finished in Champagne (MB color code 473) with Palomino color MB-tex interior . The body and the paint are in very nice condition as the many pictures will show . There are no dings,dents or scratches to speak of and the paint shines like on a much newer car . I do get compliments on this wagon whenever i take it out . 190k miles is actually considered low mileage for this kind of Mercedes . There are several cars with this engine on Ebay right now , which have over 400k miles on it and still running well . If you keep taking care of this kind of car , it really can last you a lifetime .They have a reputation for being the most durable and reliable car Mercedes made. The interior is also in amazing shape . There are no rips or tears in the seats, the carpets are clean but a little faded in spots and even the wood panels are in great condition . This car also had the rare option of the interior cargo net with a cover for the rear cargo area . The cargo net mounts to the back of the 2nd seat. You can attach it to the roof in that position. It also works with the 2nd seats folded down and attaches to the roof in a different spot, where it protects just the driver and front passenger. The cargo net/ rear area cover rewinds into a factory box finished in palomino and is removable with the turn of 2 hand screws. Maintenance was always performed and it shows when you drive it . Just last month a service was performed , fluids and filters changed and the motor mounts and one drive-shaft axle were replaced . The brakes were done at the same time . This wagon always starts up right away and it drives wonderful . It has plenty of power in town and on the freeway . It cruises comfortably at 90 miles per hour while still getting up to 27mpg of diesel . With the turbo it is not slow at all and a true pleasure to drive .It would be a perfect car for somebody who would want to drive it every day , even for long distances . It would also be the perfect candidate for a bio-diesel conversion , where you can drive it on vegetable oil or even free waste oil from restaurants . Even for a collector this car would make sense as a practical long term investment . It was the last year , prices are already appreciating and they just do not make them like this anymore. If you have any more questions or if you would like to schedule an appointment to come by and see this wagon , feel free to send me a quick note through Ebay and i will respond quickly . I would really prefer to sell this car to somebody local ,who could actually come by and see it . But i would also be helpful with shipping or a airport pick up for a out of town buyer . All sipping charges would have to be paid by the winning bidder. This is a wonderful , great driving 28 year old car and as such it will be sold " as is " , " where is " and WITHOUT a warranty . I am located in La Canada and i will make myself available for a test drive almost anytime . Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck ....

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic [w/video]
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Maybe you saw our recent blog snippet on a bunch of US journos getting pulled over in the middle of nowhere in Catalunya, Spain for driving a bunch of new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG models. By all accounts, they weren't speeding - which makes me softly guffaw. I was there in that group, yet I had taken the more direct route into the mountains from Barcelona so that I could... well, so that I could go faster. No one hassled me and I had the Autovia all to myself. And it was the goodniks - the team players - who got nabbed because Spain had decided to suddenly enforce the never enforced "must carry an international driver's license" clause of the highway code.
The departing E63 AMG with 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque from its M157 5.5-liter biturbo V8 hasn't exactly been poorly received. It isn't as crisp as, nor as pleasantly evil as its C63 AMG kid brother, but we generally accept that the heavier and larger car will always feel, well, heavier and larger.
As part of the 2014 E-Class mid-cycle redesign, Affalterbach decided to give its E63 AMG more power and torque for the occasion. The base car now gives off 550 hp and 531 lb-ft, while the hotter S version I tested (formerly the AMG Performance Pack) produces 577 hp and 590 lb-ft. The other big novelty is that E63 sedans will be available with both rear- and all-wheel drive, while all US-spec E63 wagons will be 4Matic equipped.
Carlsson turns Mercedes-Benz SLK into 610-HP hill-climb clawer
Mon, 28 Jan 2013Carlsson's race-tuned versions of the Mercedes-Benz SLK have been taking checkered flags for years, and we won't be surprised if its SLK 340 hill climber fares any different. Developed by multiple German and Swiss hill climb champion Reto Meisel, the carbon-bodied SLK 340 with lightweight brakes and a closed underbody weighs 1,716 pounds. Propelling that tiny bit of weight is a 3.4-liter V8 from Judd with 610 horsepower, and it rolls on 18-inch wheels shod in Avon tires.
It will debut at the Geneva Motor Show before beginning its racing campaigns in the summer. This one won't just tear up roads in Europe, though - Meisel says he plans on bringing it to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The press release below has more details.
2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA order guide leaked
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 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.
