Appomattox, Virginia, United States

 We bought this car ($3200) for our daughter when she got her license a couple of years back.  She drove it daily, putting close to 10k miles on it, before getting another car (74 Superbeetle).  Since then, it's really just been sitting around waiting for another job to do.  We started her with no problem about 6 months ago and the engine sounded great.  Tires are in very good condition.  The heat and ac work (needs recharge) as does the heated seats.  It has an automatic sun roof but something inside catches so when it opens it's hard to close back, so we just never used it.  Not sure what would be involved in fixing it.   The seats and windows are power, but, as you can see in the pictures, the drivers seat has seen its better days.  You can't tell it's messed up by sitting in it, it just doesn't look so great.  It's a very smooth riding car and very fast... has front and side airbags, body is in good overall condition for its age, all the glass is in good shape, and lenses and turn signals are good as new.  The engine was replaced, but that was before we got it, however, the mileage on the new engine is less than what the odometer says.  I am willing to help with transportation within 200 miles of 24522 for $1.50/mile.

 I just went out and put the jumper cables and charged it for about 10 minutes and it started right up after not being run in at least 6 months .... love that German engineering ! I would say that it will need a new battery ... but it starts runs and stops !

AMG-powered Aston Martins still years away

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

After flirting for several years, Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin have finally tied the knot. Just don't expect to see any offspring to result from the union for at least three or four years.
This according to Auto Express, which spoke with Daimler chief Dr. Dieter Zetsche at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. AE reports that a new range of AMG-developed turbocharged V8s, transmissions and electrical components will make their way into the successors to the current V8 Vantage and DB9, but that these models are still a few years off.
Purists might balk at the thought of a Mercedes-powered Aston holding true to the brand's heritage. But while David Brown (for whom the DB range is named) may have steered clear of shoehorning in Detroit muscle into his cars, the entirety of the company's current range is powered by engines borrowing technology from Ford, and that arrangement seems to have worked well for Aston until now. And if you're still skeptical, look no further than Pagani and its AMG-sourced engines and you should have all the proof you need that the new relationship between Daimler and Aston could be a success.

Mercedes fits new C-Class with AMG kit

Sat, 28 Dec 2013

It's only been a week and a half since Mercedes-Benz revealed the new C-Class, and it'll likely be a while yet before the replacement for the C63 AMG comes along. But if you want to see a preview of what it'll look like, look no further than the AMG aero kit that has just surfaced.
Expected to debut on the new C-Class at the fast-approaching Detroit Auto Show, the AMG Line Exterior Pack adds a new bumpers front and rear, side skirts, dual exhaust tips, mesh grille, aluminum window frames and - most importantly - 18-inch alloys packing upgraded brakes and fitted to a lowered sport suspension. All of which will help any C-Class look the part, even if the engine remains stock.

Carlsson turns Mercedes-Benz SLK into 610-HP hill-climb clawer

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Carlsson'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.
