VERY LOW RESERVE AUCTION!!!

 

This is a 1957 220S Mercedes Ponton owned by one family until I bought it four years ago, garage since. The only reason the car was sold to me was because the great grandson of the original owner prefer a ford mustang instead of his parents promising to fully restore the Mercedes for him. When I bought the car, I was promise the car was in good condition, which was very true.  All I did was purchased a new battery, clean the gas tank, change the spark plugs, oil, new tires with atlas 13” white port-A-walls and fuel  it and she started right up, no smoke from the tail pipe what so ever. Currently register in California till 4/24/2014. Fully insured with AAA!

Car runs good. Paint is between fair and good but new paint will make it really nice. Some detail work will definitely bring the paint out. Good condition for its age, very clean and shows okay.  Chrome is in good shape with little to no dents. 

Interior shows really well with viewer’s perception, wood have been refinished to a deep gloss. The gauges are working, as lights and turning signals. Wipers are there but not working.  Seats and door panels are all in good shape; Head liner is in fair condition, driver seat stitching started to come apart in one small area about an inch and a half.  All interior chrome is in good condition.  Clock is not working at this time. Radio is not working too.

I have really enjoyed this beautiful car for the past four years. Everywhere I go, I get outstanding compliments. Now is time for the Mercedes purest turn to secure this car and preserve its value and dignity. Buy it and drive home!!!

Aston Martin signs Letter of Intent for technical partnership with AMG

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

A little over two months ago came reports that Daimler and Aston Martin were in talks, again, about "supply and technical-cooperation agreements." The next step has been taken with Aston Martin announcing that it has signed a Letter of Intent that looks "towards a technical partnership" with Mercedes-AMG GmbH, and the two companies aiming to have definitive agreements done by year's end.
While it will get to use certain electric and electronic components from AMG, the true golden egg for the maker of the Vanquish will be the ability to develop a new line of "bespoke V8 powertrains" that will be fitted to "a new generation of models." In return for opening up the larder, Daimler will get a non-voting stake of up to five percent of Aston Martin.
Nothing else is being said about the tie-up for the moment, but there's a press release below with a few more details.

Mercedes FWD platform to last until 2018, convertible and two-seater future uncertain

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz seems to be expecting a lot of success from its front-wheel-drive CLA-Class. Automotive News is reporting that the sub-C-Class sedan could grow when its second generation arrives in 2018.
The current FWD platform for MB underpins the CLA, the B-Class, the GLA-Class, and the A-Class. The B-Class will arrive in North America as an EV for spring of 2014, while the production GLA crossover will arrive three to four months after that. The five-door A-Class won't be crossing The Pond. Sad faces all around.
According to AN, another model will be based on the front-drive architecture, but it won't be coming to the US market. Set to arrive next year, rumors are that it'll be a wagon version of the CLA, sort of like the ill-named five-door CLS Shooting Brake that is also a Europe-only item.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
