1982 Mercedes-benz 240d on 2040-cars
Junction City, Kansas, United States
|
1982 Mercedes Benz 240D. We purchased this vehicle from the original
owner in 2011 with 78298 miles. The woman hadn't been able to drive for some time but had always kept the car garaged and well maintained. She
had also kept all of the maintenance records which will be included.
We have used one reputable import mechanic exclusively to do any work we
have needed done on the car. Hopefully the pictures are worth a
thousand words in that the vehicle is in beautiful shape. The car runs
great and has been a pleasure to drive and has drawn a great deal of
attention. The odometer stopped working just prior to a trip in 2012. The cost of repair when we got back was going
to be just shy of $400.00, which we opted not to do at the time.
Unfortunately, we never did have it done as this is my wife's car and
just isn't driven enough that we worried about it. We did try to add up
how many grandchildren trips have been taken, and other known trips, and
came up with an estimate of about 8000 miles since the odometer quit,
but again, unfortunately cannot verify that number. One other issue is
that the car has used oil since we
purchased it. The mechanic has not been able to determine exactly why
since the car does not smoke like a car that burns oil and there are no
apparent leaks to explain the loss. He did tweak a couple of things that
he thought might be contributing factors but we can't see that it made
any difference. The interior is in excellent condition with only slight
leather shrinkage around the windows. My wife loves the car but it
does need to be in a garage on very cold days if it is going to start
easily and we don't have a garage. She has decided to go back to her
first love of a Volkswagen.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class spied once again
Fri, 08 Feb 2013As evidenced by how little camouflage the next-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class has been caught wearing lately, it can't be too much longer until the car will get its official debut. In our newest shots of the yacht-sized luxo sedan, the cladding still covers up the headlights, front fascia and most of the rear end, but we finally have an almost undisguised look at the rest of the car's lines.
Considering previous spy shots had more camo that better (or fully) concealed the S-Class' body, some of the more obvious things we see in these images include the prominent grille, the CLS-Class-inspired bodyside creases, the pointed trunk opening and, most interestingly, a lack of fancy exhaust outlets. Unlike other S-Class prototypes we've seen, this car does not have integrated outlets, but it does have two pipes on the left side of the car. All current S-Class models in the US and Europe feature a dual exhaust layout on each side of the car, so while some of our questions about the car get answered, it would appear that more are just arising.

Mercedes-Benz releases stunning first images of 2014 S-Class
Mon, 18 Mar 2013
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, designated W222, is one of the most highly anticipated debuts of its model year. Every generation of the flagship sedan has broken new ground in technology and innovation for the entire industry, and the German automaker appears determined to raise the bar much further with its latest arrival as it promises to deliver "the best automobile in the world." Mercedes-Benz has just released nearly two dozen interior images of the new sedan, showing off style in design, craftsmanship in execution and pioneering advancements in technology.
Unlike all previous generations - the first S-Class officially arrived in 1972 - the 2014 model completely discards a traditional instrument cluster and replaces it with two high-resolution color displays in 8:3 format with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches (the outgoing model's gauges were a mix of digital and analog). The left unit displays traditional analog gauges (digitally, of course) while the right unit is reserved for infotainment and comfort settings with the automaker's all-new mBrace2 - a cloud-based entertainment and information delivery system that is rolling out this year.
