1978 Mecedes Benz 300d. Beige. Runs Great! on 2040-cars
Winchester, Virginia, United States
|
I am selling both of my Mercedes. This is a 1978 300D. It runs great and I’ve done a ton of maintenance to it. Please read the entire description, I am going to list everything I can about the car.
I bought this car (I think I am the second owner) late last year. I am only selling it because I have to move and I have 6 cars. This Mercedes is an absolute tank, it runs incredible. Transmission is smooth, the engine runs effortlessly. I have driven this car everywhere, as one of my two daily drivers. It has never let me down. The odometer has stopped at slightly less than 125,000 miles. So, I have no clue of the mileage, it was broken when I purchased it. I have changed the glow plugs and I took out the old style
glow plugs, the oil has been changed regularly, all the gauges work, the clock
does not work. I took out the original stereo, but I have it. There is a little
amplifier in it that I just plug my ipod into. The climate control servo is
bad, so it only has heat via defrost at full blast. The Chrysler climate servo
need to be replaced. It has AC, but I pulled the belt off, the ac system is intact,
as original. The passenger side window likes to pop out of the track, that
needs to be fixed and the two back windows need the door switches to operate,
though both windows do work. Sunroof does not open. The cruise control works, but the cable needs to be replaced. There is rust (see pictures), but that is easy to fix. There is no rust other that the spots on the body that are in photos. The exhaust is in great shape. The tires are fine (will need replacing in a few thousand miles). It’s got all it’s original hubcaps. The interior is in more than fair shape for the age of this car. Well, it’s above average. I absolutely love this car, I hate to see it go. A DEPOSIT OF $500.00 is due immediately after auction. The balance is due within 3 day of end of auction. No exceptions. Please do not ask me to change my policy. The car MUST be picked up within 10 days, I am moving and that dictates the time frame. Email me with questions, I’ll answer as fast as I can.You may call me at 540-532-0250 if you wish. |

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.
Paul di Resta returns to DTM with Mercedes
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Some drivers manage to make the transition from one form of motor racing into another, and some run into trouble. Take Paul di Resta, for example. The promising young Scottish driver dominated Formula 3 racing in Europe in 2006, then moved over to Germany's hugely competitive DTM touring car series where he finished second in 2008, third in 2009 and first in 2010. But things didn't go as smoothly for Paul - cousin to retired Indy champion Dario Franchitti - when he moved in to Formula One with the Force India team.
In three years on the grid, he failed to score a single podium finish. Little surprise, then, that Force India opted not to renew his contract for this season. Left without a ride, di Resta is now going back to DTM with longtime supporter Mercedes-Benz, testing the new C-Class touring car today in Portugal. It's good news for Mercedes, which is celebrating 120 years in motor racing this season and, with 2005 champion Gary Paffett also on board, can now count two former champions on its DTM roster.
We wouldn't count Paul out of F1 for good, though. When he won the DTM title four years ago, he was also moonlighting as Force India's test driver, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him pull similar double-duty with the Mercedes F1 team (or another Benz-powered outfit) this year before spring-boarding back into grand prix racing in the future. At 27 years old, he may not have been the youngest driver on the grid this year, but he's still got a good few years ahead of him.
