 You are viewing one of the nicest 240 Diesels in the World. This car is a 2 owner car and was owned by a collector and properly stored in a climate controlled garage. This beautiful Mercedes 240 D is Light Ivory on the exterior with a Palamino Interior. The car has 145,209 miles which is less than 5K miles a year . The paint on this car is all original and looks brand new.  I will be very descriptive and detailed about this car as I consider it to be one of the best cars in the world. There are no dings, no scratches, not even a stone chip. There is no rust anywhere, and you couldn't find a 2013 car with nicer paint than this one. I am blown away by how amazing it looks after 31 years. The interior of the car is also pristine in every way. You will notice there is no fading in the seats, they are firm and all the stitching is in place like when new. The wood is in excellent condition.  The dash is pristine with no cracks or blemishes. Carpets, headliner are also in great condition. There are no odors in this car, and it is a smoke free car.  Everything works properly inside the car. The heat is hot, and the air condition is ice cold. Power sunroof slides back perfect and quiet. The original Becker Europa Radio still works perfectly as done the Antenna. In the trunk, you will find the original spare tire and tools. Medical kit is still new, as well. 


     Here is the detailed info about this beautiful 240 D. The car just had a major service 600 miles ago and 3K was spent on making this car perfect. As a result, it does not need any service.  The following was completed on the car: 4 brand new Toyo tires , new brake pads and rotors, new flex disc on drive shaft. Inside the engine compartment the following was done: valves were adjusted, new timing chain tensioner , new glow plugs, injectors were tested and work perfectly, new injector seals, new fuel hoses, new air filter , fresh oil change using Shell Rotella 15/40 oil, new fuel filters, new motor mounts, transmission mount, new vacuum pump, so all the doors close when locked along with trunk and there is a new valve cover gasket and a new battery. The exhaust is perfect and rust free as is the undercarriage of the car. 
 

     The following was completed on the engine compartment:  I had the compression checked and it was 450 across all 4 cylinders.  This is the same values as if it was brand new. Therefore, I was excited to know not only do I have a car that looks like new,  but  I have one that has an engine that isn't even broken in.  I removed the valve cover and had it polished along with the oil filter housing and air filter housing, and the power steering cover was chromed because its steel.  All the lines are still the original gold color and not faded like most. Doing this to the engine, gave the car a new image and it truly looks spectacular and show quality. There are no leaks anywhere in the engine compartment or transmission.  The engine runs like a watch very smoothly. The transmission also shifts perfect with no jerking. I drove this car 600 miles home and it was truly one of the best rides ever. It got amazing fuel mileage in the mid 30s the car cruised at 75 to 80 mph the whole way with no problem. I was stopped by many times when I stopped for gas, and people asked me where on earth did this car come from. It looks new and they were amazed it was a 1982. 

     In closing, I have sold many Mercedes 123 chasis cars here on Ebay. I polished a handful of engines and made them unique, but I never had one this amazing and new in every way. I don't know if the pictures will show off the cars paint, but I have to say it is truly the nicest original paint I have ever seen on a Mercedes. I feel this car is very special and hoping it goes to a good home and to one that someone will take care of it like a baby throughout its entire life. If you see closely, you can see how the rubber on the bumpers fit perfectly and tight and are black as when new. The headlight doors are perfect with no chips or cracks. Even the headlight filler underneath the headlight does not have a stone chip in it. You will never see a car like this again. It truly is as close to buying a new 240 D as possible, and it needs nothing done to it. Bid with confidence and please do not bid if you can't pay for the car or have a negative rating. I will answer any questions you have, and I am hoping someone clicks the buy it now and sees how special this car is and that its the best one on the planet. Good luck and Happy bidding .

Watch Schumacher's hot lap of N"urburgring in Mercedes F1 car

Fri, 31 May 2013

In advance of the Nürburgring 24-hour race last weekend, Mercedes-Benz put on a demonstration that had Michael Schumacher playing catch-up in a Formula One car against four examples of AMG metal. There were four cars sent off in staggered starts before Schumacher: an A45 AMG, E63 AMG 4Matic, SLS AMG Black Series, and an SLS AMG GT3 car. "Mr. Formula One," as the German television commentators call him, left three minutes after the SLS AMG GT3.
There are two videos of Schumacher's lap, the first is on-board footage - and even though there were several GoPros on the car the POV never cuts away from the front wing. You can hear the throttle and tell he's not pushing it, you can also tell how bumpy the track is. The second video is footage from the German Sport1 channel - with commentary in German - that shows all the cars taking off and takes the aerial view of proceedings. He looks to be going a lot faster in that one. You can compare and contrast yourself with the videos below.
Oh, and it's worth noting that, even with the likely restricted car, and the made-for-TV environment, Schumi turned in a quick lap. The nose camera shows the F1 car start to slow down on the back straight, near the start/finish line, right around the modern-length track record time of six minutes and eleven seconds.

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.

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.
