this car is in very good shape - it has brand new brakes and rotors(last week) - the tires are at about half life - the pictures here were taken last summer but the car has only been driven about 500 miles since these pics were taken - just enough to keep it rolling - i will list everything that i can think of that is an issue - the drivers side door latch is broken but i have a brand new replacement for it - the back driver side window does not open - glass off track i was quoted 400 to fix it but i think it can be done a lot cheaper with some salvage yard searching - drivers side power window sticks but i also have a replacement switch for that - clock and tach don't work on dash - rear wiper and power antenna don't work - drivers side seat is a bit soft - all that being said - the car is great - runs great and is quite clean - i just want to disclose everything so there are no surprises - --- the grease conversion is a one tank system which I have found to be MUCH easier than the dual tank - the filtered grease pours directly into the gas tank and mixed with diesel - you can mix it - use straight grease or straight diesel - whichever you like - the fuel injector and the fuel lines are heated - when you get in the car in the morn you just flip the toggle to heat the lines and wait two min before starting it up - once the car is warm if you are making multiple stops around town you will not need to warm lines every time - in the coldest months you can mix in diesel w grease so it wont clog up - but i usually just use straight diesel once it gets below 30 - (I got stuck one time - lesson learned) --------- the only real rust on the car is under the back wheel wells - see pics - car is super cool to cruise around in - my wife used it as her daily driver for 2-3 years before getting a new car 2 years ago - now we just use it to kick around in - so its time to unload it - i have over 10 k into this car but realize that will be tough to recoup so i will let it go for much less - good luck - feel free to ask questions or come drive it if you are nearby -

2014 Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid for fat cats frugal with fuel
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Judging by how long we waited to get a clear shot of the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid, you'd have thought hybrid cars were only driven by Terminators and that the technology arrived only 48 hours ago through a wormhole in the Mercedes stand. The newest member of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class hybrid band - joining the S400 Hybrid and S350 BlueTEC Hybrid, it hits notes like a 5.5-second sprint from standstill to 62 miles per hour, up to 19 miles of ion-powered running and uses three liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers in Europe (78.41 mpg US, but our mpg test cycle is different than their mpg test cycle).
The lump up front is a turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6, the lump in back - note the reduction in trunk space - is a pack of lithium-ion batteries that juice an 80-kilowatt electric motor. Other than having four drive options for controlling electric drive and battery usage, it's all S-Class all the time, with leather-covered everything and those mountainous thrones that bring to mind words like "Archduke" and "Papal."
You'll find our hard-earned gallery from the Frankfurt Motor Show floor above, and more words of information in the press release below.
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.
Maybach could become Mercedes-Benz sub-brand
Wed, 22 Jun 2011When you're arriving in a twin-turbocharged, twelve-cylinder Maybach limo, there's no reason you should ever have to be late. Except, maybe, to make a fashionable entrance. But up at the corporate level, the entire Maybach brand is being slowed down as critical decisions about its future are being undertaken.
Last week, we reported that a decision on what path Maybach would take going forward would be due at the start of next month, but the latest reports indicate that the timeframe has been extended as further options are being considered.
The previous options under consideration were twofold: either relaunch the brand with production outsourced to Aston Martin - which suddenly finds itself with excess production capacity - or shut it down completely. And those are still two very real options. Word has it that Aston has put together four concept cars for the Daimler brass to consider, all based on the next-generation S-Class platform (and thankfully not the old one).
