Low Mileage, 3 Owner, Life Long Arizona Car..Fully Documented!

     Coming to you this week is a beautiful 1982 Mercedes-Benz 240D sedan. It is a super clean example and is very solid and rust free showing its pampered life here in the dry southwest. The car was sold new to Mrs. Elizabeth Thurston on November 12th, 1981 right here at Downtown Phoenix Motors. That means the car has lived its entire life in the dry Arizona climate beautifully preserving the body and chrome. The car is an all original survivor and has a full service history with over $5000 being spent on maintenance and upkeep over the past 4 years. All original MBs in this kind of condition don?t come along everyday?don?t miss your chance....BID NOW!

The following is a list of options as this 240D is currently equipped:

-Original 2.4L Diesel Engine

-RARE 4 Speed Manual Transmission

-Ice Cold A/C

-Power Door Locks

-Fog Lamps

-Upgraded CD Sound System (Original Deck Included)

-New Michelin Tires

-Color Matched Hub Caps

      The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car is all (original other than the trunk lid) in striking Light Ivory and is in overall good condition for its age and originality. The trunk lid was repainted due to an object falling on it in the garage. There are the expected chip touch-ups around the car. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged car should be, and has never been in any accidents. The car is riding on original steel Mercedes wheels and hubcaps with very nice new Michelin tires. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape.

      The interior is almost all original condition all around. The supple palomino seats are all in very good condition and look very nice, which shows the quality of material used in this car. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged, and the drivers mat looks to be the only non original part of interior. All dials and controls function as they should, windows, power sunroof, and other accessories are fully functional. The Kenwood CD system sounds great, and the car will come with the original sound system. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, ORIGINAL spare tire and wheel, and a nice trunk mat. The trunk pan is solid and the cardboard inserts are still in nice shape.

      Mechanically, this 240D runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 80mph. The car was always regularly serviced and the car was well cared for. The car just had the A/C compressor serviced, all new Bilstein Comfort shocks, new motor and trans mounts, new master cylinder and brake booster, all new door lock vacuum actuators, and a full tune up! The A/C in this car is amazing and will freeze you out of the car!

      Another neat thing about this car is that it has every original booklet and instruction card since new even right down to the Hirshman antenna key. It is rare to find these cars with all of the original books preserved in this condition. The service book also was incredibly well kept and you can tell how well this car was cared for!

      All in all, this is one of the neatest Mercedes that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price. This is your chance to get a classic Mercedes for a fraction of the original cost. The car also has a clean Arizona Title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.

Maybach could become Mercedes-Benz sub-brand

Wed, 22 Jun 2011

When you're arriving in a twin-turbocharged, twelve-cylinder Maybach limo, there's no reason you should ever have to be late. Except, maybe, to make a fashionable entrance. But up at the corporate level, the entire Maybach brand is being slowed down as critical decisions about its future are being undertaken.
Last week, we reported that a decision on what path Maybach would take going forward would be due at the start of next month, but the latest reports indicate that the timeframe has been extended as further options are being considered.
The previous options under consideration were twofold: either relaunch the brand with production outsourced to Aston Martin - which suddenly finds itself with excess production capacity - or shut it down completely. And those are still two very real options. Word has it that Aston has put together four concept cars for the Daimler brass to consider, all based on the next-generation S-Class platform (and thankfully not the old one).

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.
