This is a beautiful Mercedes that still runs and drives like a dream! It has never been smoked in and has always been garage kept. The best part of THIS car is that you don't have to take MY word for it, IT COMES WITH A WARRANTEE! I have a bumper to bumper extended warrantee that does not expire until March 29th of 2013. So that means that if you drive it for a couple of weeks and think that you feel the transmission slipping, or the the engine not running smoothly, you just take it to the dealer and get it repaired or replaced! The warrantee costs only $25.00 to transfer into your name, and it covers the engine, trans, electrical, seals and gaskets, steering, air conditioning, timing belt, cooling systems, fuel systems, hi-tech electrical, substitute transportation, 24-hour roadside assistance, it basically covers everything except wear and tear items like tires, brakes and suspension. Well, those items that are not covered, I just replaced myself! I put new brakes on it four months ago, and the two front tires are new, the two rear are six months old, and the suspension is all brand new! These cars come with an Air-Matic suspension that makes the drive incredibly smooth, but this suspension tends to go out after about ten years or so. My car first had an air leak in the front, it is so common that Mercedes actually has a kit to repair it, it cost $1,000.00! My car also needed the compressor,and other parts, replaced in the rear and that costs around $3,000.00! I had both of the repairs made at the Mercedes dealership and have all the receipts. If you don't buy this car, make sure to ask about the Air-Matic suspension on the Mercedes you do buy, like I said, it is very common for it to start leaking air. Once the air starts leaking, the car sits so low to the ground that it is not drivable, it has to be flat bedded to the dealer for repair. I have a picture of my car on the flatbed also. I love this car and thought I would have it for at least another 80,000 miles! Unfortunately, my family has outgrown it and I hate to say it, but my Mercedes days are over and I have to embrace my minivan years. Good luck, and enjoy!

Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.
Thu, 05 Jul 2012Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
Mercedes mulling Renault-based entry-level X-Class?
Sun, 17 Mar 2013Somewhere in between the Smart brand and the all-new A-Class (pictured above), Daimler is said to be readying a smaller entry-level product for the Mercedes-Benz brand to compete with models like the Audi A1. According to AutoBild, Mercedes-Benz will get a new hatchback based on a platform from its recent partnership with Renault-Nissan, and it could be called the X-Class.
Expected to debut by 2018, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class could be offered in sedan, hatchback and crossover variants, and it would likely have a starting price below the $20,000-euro mark. Power would come from either a 1.0-liter inline three-cylinder engine or a 1.5-liter inline-four, and the car would likely be built in a low-cost nation in order to make the financials work. Wearing the Mercedes-Benz name, the X-Class would have to exhibit more distinguishable luxury and styling to set itself apart from the models that helped provide its underpinnings.
