Diesel Mercedes Benz E300 1997 Sedan Great Condition. on 2040-cars
Livingston, Montana, United States

I am parting with my Mercedes Diesel (non-turbo). This car has been really great. I purchased it in April, for work, and put 14000 miles on it with no problems. It has 368k on the odometer. I had been looking at this model of Mercedes Benz nationwide and this one was the cleanest and the best I found. I am the 4th owner. The previous owner was a diesel Mercedes affectionado. He had one with 550k and another with 700k. They maintained this machine perfectly for roughly 89k. The 2nd owner, put the bulk of the miles on the vehicle and also maintained this machine by the book. The 2nd owner was a surgeon that commuted from Lookout Mountain, TN. To Atlanta, GA. Both owners used the same mechanic mostly. I have most records for repairs and services for the Mercedes. It is in great shape and anyone that knows anything about these diesels will tell you they can get more than 600k if maintained properly (especially the non turbo). The car still averages 31 mpg and runs perfectly. I just got 37mpg on a trip up to Whitefish, MT. a few weeks ago. I am selling this Mercedes because it is just too small for my work needs.
I had the Mercedes dealership in Athens, GA. perform the 120 point inspection (I have copies) before I purchased. I also did the carfax no wrecks etc. And had the 3rd owner's mechanic perform another pre-purchase inspection in order to cross check the dealers inspection. The Engine electronics light comes on at start and I had the dealer check this as well as the previous owner's mechanic, and my mechanic. It is a code for injectors 3 and 4. All parties I have spoken with have said it was no rush to address this issue. Doesn't affect performance at all. If I was going to keep the car I would change the injectors as a matter of maintenance sometime in the next 12 months. The car has run flawlessly since I have owned it and I hate to sell it, but the trunk space is just too small for me. The KBB values this car at $5549 in Fair condition which is the KBB's lowest. This car qualifies for good condition but I used fair as a price point. The car has New Bridgestones (less than 2k miles.) I purchased Bridgestone instead of Michelin because the Bridgestones had better ratings and reviews. Recent oil change. Fuel filter. Trans service with all mercedes fluids and filters. The Bad. There a few small cracks on the dash. The drivers side dash speaker has a small hole in it from my Stubborn GPS sticking to the windshield. The Rear DS window does not work from the master control. But does work from the door. Just a switch. $25 A small crack on the DS rear bumper molding. The housing on the 3rd brake light is broken. I have part number. Cup holder is broken. Buyer responsible for pick up or shipping. Deposit of US $500.00 within 24 hours of auction close Full payment is required within 7 days of auction close |

How could a lifted Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG be more awesome? Add an axle
Fri, 01 Mar 2013We are fully confident in saying that this will be the most amazing thing you see all day. First of all, it's a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen - in AMG spec, no less. And it's being shown off in high-definition video glory, blasting through the desert, jumping over sand dunes, and generally being awesome. But here's the kicker: It has six wheels. Three axles. And they're all driven. Holy $%!#.
Under the hood is AMG's usual 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, and total output is rated at 536 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. That's impressive and all, but do keep in mind that the G63 6x6 weighs in at 8,322 pounds or, you know, the weight of two E-Class sedans. Combine that with its 18 inches of ground clearance, 37-inch tires and five locking differentials and you've got a vehicle capable of, well, everything you've ever imagined or will ever imagine for the rest of your life.
But the goodness doesn't stop once you open the doors. Oh, no. This thing is fit for a king - or a sheik, more appropriately - with ultimately luxurious seating for four. The rear bench seat has been removed in favor of two bucket seats with a fixed console in the middle, and the rear seats have been moved back beyond the usual B pillar to allow for more legroom.
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
