Very Clean 1985 Mercedes-benz 300d W123 Eurobody Manual Windows, Sunroof on 2040-cars

Very Clean Mercedes Benz 300D Eurobody. eBay does not recognize the correct VIN which is actually WDB1231301A248122. We have owned this car for 6 years and hate to see it go, but we recently bought a 300TD wagon which is really what we need now. This Eurobody car has manual windows, manual sunroof and thin flush-mounted bumpers. You have to open and close the windows and sunroof with a crank and muscle power. The seats slide forward when you pull a handle and shift your weight. That's right, no electronics to foul up. It is a 5-cyclinder diesel, non-turbo, with only 196K original miles. Car runs strong and rides smooth. I personally would not hesitate to drive the car across the country and back. Just had tires put on it last summer and they have less than 7000 miles on them. This has been a very dependable Mercedes, and I have not had to do a lot of work on it outside of routine maintenance. I few years back I replaced the upper control arms and steering box. I also installed a larger fuel tank. The one that came in it was smaller than normal. There is a slow leak in the AC so the past few years I have had to add Freon. Last summer, the recharge of Freon only lasted about a month. The AC unit will definitely need some attention. The body on this car is very straight and solid. The car has been in a minor accident a few years back. Someone ran into the front passenger fender. There was no damage to the car aside from the fender. At that point, the whole car was repainted in the original color. That was years ago and the paint job is no longer perfect as this is a family car. The eurotag does not come with the car (we will be moving it to the wagon.) The interior looks very good for its age, a few cracks in the driver's seat and front center armrest. Also a couple of cracks in the dash. When I got the car, the back door windows are tinted. Over the years, my children have scratched up the tint with Samurai swords and Matchbox cars. But the glass is in excellent shape. You may want to remove the tinting. I've tried my best to describe the car fully, the good, bad and ugly. Please view all pictures as they are part of my description and feel free to ask any questions. I know from experience that this Mercedes is good for another 200K. The W123 Mercedes is built like a tank, and it is not a disposable car. After you reach 400K you can rebuild the engine if necessary and keep on driving. I am requiring a $500 Paypal deposit within 48 hours. The rest can be paid in cash upon pickup. If you are local, come take a look. |

Mercedes releases 6x6 G63 AMG specs and pics [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz has finally dropped full details on its insane G63 AMG 6x6. The machine puts 544 horsepower to all six wheels thanks to a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8. A seven-speed gearbox shuttles power to the ground via three sets of portal axles, which helps give this machine a full 15.75 inches of ground clearance. By comparison, the standard G63 AMG sits with just 8.27 inches of ground clearance. The extra lift allows this 6x6 to ford nearly 40 inches of water and run massive 37-inch tires. All told, there are five differential locks on this thing, all controlled by a special "locking logic" that provides the best traction possible for any given situation.
The controls offer up three stages of locking, which we can only assume range from JKLOL to OMGWTF. Right now, AMG says this monstrosity is only a show vehicle, but we imagine it wouldn't take much to convince the team to whip up one of your very own. Check out our full gallery and the press release below for all the nitty gritty. While you're down there, you can also check out the video on the machine one more time.
Mercedes to roll out S65 AMG Coupe in July
Mon, 07 Apr 2014We're still a couple of weeks away from the public debut of the new Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe at the fast-approaching New York Auto Show, but already we're receiving word of an even more powerful version in the works. That, of course, would be the S65 AMG Coupe - the twelve-cylinder version of the latest S-Class Coupe, two-door counterpart to the S65 AMG sedan and replacement for the outgoing CL65 AMG.
Like the four-door version rolled out back in November, the S65 AMG Coupe would be distinguished from less powerful vehicles (which, lets face it, is just about everything) principally by its engine: a massive, 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 that produces 621 horsepower, 738 pound-feet of torque and cares as much about global warming as an oil-shipping mega-tanker.
Because Merc's 4Matic all-wheel drive system can't handle that much torque, the ne plus ultra coupe would (like the S65 sedan but unlike the S63 coupe) be offered only in rear-drive form. That means it will have that much more trouble getting the power down to the road, but since the Magic Body Control suspension is similarly incompatible with 4Matic, the flagship coupe will get that trick suspension.
Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is Affalterbach's first big leap into the little pond
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The recent history of AMG is turning out amped-up versions of Mercedes-Benz offerings that would hardly ever be mistaken for their sedate counterparts. Sure, you'd need to pay attention to pick a G-Class from the G63 AMG, but dual side-pipes are a quick giveaway. The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is not only a new era in Affalterbach's attention on smaller cars, it is probably also the most subtle transformation we can think of in the line-up.
Low and chunky enough in standard guise to make a sporting impression, the aesthetic makeover is confined to black trim around the lower rim of the hatch, black wheels with red brake calipers and a single, rectangular exhaust tip on either side of the diffuser. It's easier to make a positive ID inside, where the flat-bottomed steering wheel, red seatbelts and red-rimmed details say, "You know what I am..."
If the car is running, though, it won't take but a second. The 2.0-liter turbo spitting 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet will grumble through a sport exhaust at idle, and bellow through the same on it's way to a 0-60 time of less than 4.5 seconds. And if you need something that looks a little harder - and you want those quad pipes - then the A45 AMG Edition 1 is the treasure you seek. There's a press release below for all the info you'll need until the hot hatch goes on sale in Germany later this year, and photos for the rest of us while we wait to find out if we'll get a chance to buy it.
