Winder, Georgia, United States

Up for sale is a Beautiful 1988 560SL! I am the fifth owner and I bought this car as a light restoration project and a weekend car. I have since become extremely busy and have moved twice with this car. I am traveling a lot now and may be moving again soon. I would like to pass this beautiful classic along to the next owner because I do not have the time to put into it anymore and I hate to see it sit and not get repaired or driven. The interior is in great condition with minor expected leather cracking and two rips from wear in the divers' seat. One rip in in the rear passenger seat panel from the top safety arm and the other is in the drivers' seat bolster. Minor leather cracking in the armrest and seat. The car drives like a dream! Engine starts right up! It is a rare 2+2, which are becoming increasingly more difficult to find. Every option was added to this car in 1988. Wooden gear shift knob, cup holder in drivers door and a Blaupunkt Madison CD127 are a few of these options. Only 137,564 miles. The paint is in immaculate shape and has a great shine. It is the original Fire engine red factory color with palomino interior and a Black cloth soft top. Comes with both HARD and SOFT top. This car has some rust issues that can be repaired. German engineering at its finest! Car was NOT garaged for a SHORT period of time during a move, but has been garaged otherwise since owned. You can fly out or drive and road trip this car home or have it shipped! NO RESERVE!! Happy Bidding.

X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.

2014 Mercedes SL and SLK add small expansion to Takata airbag recall

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Mercedes-Benz is the latest automaker to be affected by Takata's massive airbag recall. The company has announced a voluntary recall campaign on a small number of model-year 2014 SLK- and SL-Class roadsters.
In Mercedes' case, 300 vehicles are affected, 200 of which are in the hands of customers. According to spokesperson Donna Boland, the affected roadsters were built between March and April of this year.
The issue, which is apparently the fault of one of Takata's subcontractors, rests with some improperly installed fasteners, which could keep the airbag from performing the way it's supposed to. According to Boland, Mercedes isn't sure what, if any, injuries the recalled airbags could cause, but simply claims there's an increased risk in these particular vehicles. There's been no reported instances of the faulty airbags deploying on a customer and the original issue was found in a production test.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
