A Class Act… Man, what a ride! You know that timing is everything! If you stumbled upon this auction, then this may be your lucky day. Are you looking for a reliable car with looks that will last? Where are you going to find a solid car with classic looks, unrivaled reliability, economy, style and class? Well, today I am offering, a 1984 Mercedes-Benz 300D 4dr Sedan 5-cyl. 2998cc/123hp Turbo-diesel Fuel Injection. You can enjoy this car, have it several years, sell it and get your money back. Cheap Thrills! The only reason that I am offering her is
because I’ve bought another one, in Lapis Blue. Actually this Dark Blue 1984, drives better but has more miles and its interior
is better. Yet, I prefer the color of the 1985. “Mercedes built the car to last, and many are still on the road today. As a testament to the car’s longevity, it is popular in Africa as a bush taxi, covering thousands of miles of rough roads with only basic maintenance. The 3.0-liter inline 5 diesel in the 300D, while lacking in power, is considered to be one of the most reliable engines ever built. The timeless design is sure to last as long as the car itself, making this car a classic that is here to stay.” (Hagerty, 1984 300D Turbo-Diesel, 2014). Why buy this one! 1. I got this car from my friend who happens to be a Mercedes Diesel expert. Pete goes over all of these cars before buying them and drives the kinks out of them, then fixes and tunes them to its optimal performance. Some he has kept, this is one of them that he sold to me. It has been vacuum tuned and runs quicker than all of them. All of the fluids, oils and filter have been replaced or checked and/or changed and will be checked again prior to purchase. 2. Stringent Virginia State Inspection has just been completed. You don’t get a sticker in Virginia unless the brakes, lights, steering, horn, windows and more are acceptable for the road. 3. None of
these cars are exactly alike in how they perform and drive. Do not let the mileage fool you because
this one drives smoother, tighter and quieter than previous ones that I’ve
owned. Reliability is an understatement. This one, none of them ever let me
down. I feel confident that this car will go
anywhere. Best part about this 300D is the way it moves on down the road. She can be driven and driven and driven anywhere. 4. I believe that I have many of the records back from 1996 and vehicle history and title report appear to indicate this was either a one or two owner car and has been in the North Carolina and mostly Virginia most of its time. Also, the records from 96 on indicate the car was serviced at Mercedes in Richmond, VA. Other considerations for your purchasing decision: -

could be lightly dusted as it is called to bring to perfection - Body – solid (slight rust noted drivers side rear, see pic) Known Needs: Air Conditioning – The system was replaced in 2001 and got the record. I purchased the car in the winter and did not concern myself with it. The air conditioning needs to get checked. According to Hagerty Ratings these cars keep increasing in value and I have adjusted the price considerably. These cars are used for daily transportation but are ready for a long tour without excuses, and the casual passerby will not find any visual flaws. "Good" is the one word description of a Hagerty Price Guide #3. |

New Die Hard movie wrecked 132 cars in $11 million chase scene [w/video]
Sat, 16 Feb 2013It would seem the act of dying hard brings with it lots of wanton destruction of the four-wheeled kind. According to John Moore, director of A Good Day To Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis, There were 132 (cars) that could never be used again. Another 518 required a lot of work. And damn right there were some good cars there... That's the fun of it."
Please join us in one great big collective sigh. Done? Okay, let's continue.
"With Die Hard it's about how audacious the action is," says Moore. "So you have to drive over a Lamborghini. An actual one. And yes it hurts me. I'm a car fanatic." Yeah. Sounds like it hurt really bad... though not as bad as the final tally after all the carnage had been counted: "Someone showed me the numbers on the car chase and soup to nuts, you put it all together it was like an $11 million sequence."
How could a lifted Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG be more awesome? Add an axle
Fri, 01 Mar 2013We are fully confident in saying that this will be the most amazing thing you see all day. First of all, it's a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen - in AMG spec, no less. And it's being shown off in high-definition video glory, blasting through the desert, jumping over sand dunes, and generally being awesome. But here's the kicker: It has six wheels. Three axles. And they're all driven. Holy $%!#.
Under the hood is AMG's usual 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, and total output is rated at 536 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. That's impressive and all, but do keep in mind that the G63 6x6 weighs in at 8,322 pounds or, you know, the weight of two E-Class sedans. Combine that with its 18 inches of ground clearance, 37-inch tires and five locking differentials and you've got a vehicle capable of, well, everything you've ever imagined or will ever imagine for the rest of your life.
But the goodness doesn't stop once you open the doors. Oh, no. This thing is fit for a king - or a sheik, more appropriately - with ultimately luxurious seating for four. The rear bench seat has been removed in favor of two bucket seats with a fixed console in the middle, and the rear seats have been moved back beyond the usual B pillar to allow for more legroom.
Mercedes dealers authorized to spend $2,500 on perks for S-Class customers
Mon, 02 Dec 2013If you drop $100,000 on a luxury sedan, it seems only reasonable to receive some preferential treatment at the dealership you purchased from. After all, that price isn't just for the car - you're paying for the brand and all the cachet that entails. For Mercedes-Benz, those benefits have apparently been lacking relative to the German brand's luxury competitors.
That's set to change, though, as Automotive News reports that the German brand is placing a much greater emphasis on keeping its customers happy and loyal with its MB Select program. Starting with the new S-Class and spreading to the CLA-Class (and eventually beyond), dealers are being given money - up to $2,500 in the case of the flagship sedan - just to improve the customer experience.
We agree, improving the "customer experience" is quite a vague term, so it's nice that Mercedes USA's CEO, Steve Cannon, offered up some examples to AN at the LA Auto Show. For example, a customer couldn't fit his sunglasses into the overhead compartment. "So we bought him a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses that fit because of their shape," Cannon said.
