This is a very rare 1984 Mercedes Euro 300TD Turbo Diesel Station Wagon that I pulled out of a barn in New Hampshire a decade ago ,The correct vin # is WBD1231931F014848, Ebay would not allow the Euro vin #, the one in the description is for the parts car included in this auction, The European models came very basic, manual windows, manual sunroof and manual heater controls (no climate control) cloth seats and It did have the optional  inside remote dash controlled headlights from the factory, the original headlights are long gone but the switch and everything else is still intact and I have seen the correct Euro lights here on Ebay, it also has a rare factory safety net and cargo cover and luggage bars for the roof rack and A/C, you can still see the "Partical filter" adapter required in Europe on the exhaust next to the turbo.You can see in the pics also the rare "red" reverse light on the drivers side for  Euro models only and it also has the original spare tire, I did have this car running when I first bought it, every thing worked including the hydraulic rear suspension but the engine had a knock due to lack of oil. I started removing the engine but have run out of time, everything under the hood has been disconnected, the only thing holding the motor in now is the motor mounts and bell housing bolts, this is a VERY clean car, the only rust it has it what you see in the pics with the exception of a small hole on the drivers side rear floor, it has some small dents as can be seen in the pics and I have a collection of NOS Euro parts that goes with it also, Bumper ends Ect...Also included in this Auction is a 1983 parts car with a low miladge engine (the green station wagon) This car was my daily driver for many years, the previous owner had told me it had a rebuilt motor but had lost the documents, so as a mechanic for the past 30 years I installed a new timing chain, guides, seals, gaskets and injectors just for precaution, while doing so I found "heat tabs" on the motor which many rebuilders use for warranty purposes, unfortunately a few thousand miles later the transmission went and I discovered the frame was too rotted and decided to put this motor in the silver car but have run out of time and have no place to do it. the green car has 171000 on the clock and drove like it was new, the car still starts right up and runs great but only has reverse and has been sitting for many years, do not even think about fixing the green one as it has very rusty frame and floors and is no longer road worthy but does have a brand new stainless engine pipe and muffler and tail pipe, and it does have a very clean off white interior, Feel free to make me an offer on the Silver Euro wagon if you have a motor or the package but I will not sell the motor in the green car until the silver one has been sold, the motor in the green car is worth the starting bid of the two cars alone, these are special engines for the station wagons because they have the hydraulic pumps mounted on the head that operate the rear suspension that the sedans do not. I can Email more pics if you like, This auction is for the two cars as a package or I can remove the motor out of the green one for the high bidder if they like for the same price minuse the parts car, Please feel free to come look at these cars anytime before you bid, they are located at 2982 Route 9 Cold Spring NY 10516,  6 miles south of Exit 13 off Interstate 84 on U.S. Route 9 on the east side of the Hudson River, feel free to tex or call me at 845-490-8998, thanks Casey.... Make sure you click on the "see other items" link on the right hand side of this page to view other parts I have for sale on Ebay, International bidders please keep in mind both of these vehicles must be towed, they do not move under their own power so please keep this in mind for your shipper....

Mercedes-AMG teases GT interior, announces fall 2014 debut

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

Mercedes-Benz opted to tease the assembled media at its post-New York Auto Show party, showing off a pair of images of the exquisitely crafted interior of the highly anticipated successor of the SLS AMG - the V8-powered Mercedes-AMG GT.
Slated for a debut in the fall at either Paris or Los Angeles (we're betting Paris), you'll note straight away that there's something wrong with this car's name. Where's the "Benz?" Well, it's been ditched to, as Mercedes says, "make the dream of the authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car come true." Sorry Karl.
"The new Mercedes-AMG GT proves that we will be positioning AMG as a dynamic sports car brand even more strongly and aggressively than before," said Tobias Moers, CEO of Mercedes-AMG.

Mercedes rules out hybrid supercar, promises SLS successor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

The recent Geneva Motor Show was a festival of hypercars, with the presence of not one, but three over-the-top debuts: the Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LeFerrari. The latter two have hitched their carbon fiber bumpers to the electrification bandwagon by using hybrid-electric powertrains not entirely unlike the propulsion systems we've come to know in cars like the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Volt. Does that mean the flow of electrons up the four-wheeled food chain will eventually consume our hallowed supercars? Not if AMG has anything to say about it.
AMG Director of Vehicle Development Tobias Moers recently confirmed that not only will there be a successor to the Mercedes-Benz performance division's SLS AMG, he notes that its internal combustion engine will most definitely not be sharing living quarters with an electric drivetrain. Instead, AMG plans to focus on further pushing the power and efficiency envelope of the internal combustion engine and advancing the use of lightweight materials to achieve their goals. The first example of this effort can be seen in the new SLS AMG Black Series that incorporates many weight-saving techniques to shed some 154 pounds from the SLS AMG GT (above), which itself is lighter than the standard SLS AMG.
Furthermore, Moers remarks that his company is happy to leave the hypercar segment to companies like Ferrari and McLaren. He admits that, "Ferrari in the hyper-car segment is still a different brand than AMG. We have to be honest..." So rather than taking the SLS further upmarket to do battle with bulls and stallions, Moers hinted that the next-generation SLS may be joined by another performance model that fits neatly between itself and the C63 AMG.

Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.
