1991 Mercedes 300sel Black Pearl/grey Leather. Very Solid Vehicle! on 2040-cars
Hollis, New York, United States
|
This is a 1991 300SEL of which you don't come across this model too often. All I see
around are the V8 variants of this strong, reliable chassis. Car has
213k miles & still going strong. Clean title on hand. No accident
history. Having owned several W126 cars, the 6 cylinder is much more economical then the V8 variants
Color is Black Pearl with Grey leather which is in good condition sans a few worn spots seen in pics. Overall she has worn well and has a lot of life left in her! Just drove the car over 150 miles with no issues. The engine is super smooth and cruises at 85mph effortlessly. The engine does NOT smoke and does NOT burn any excessive amounts oil which is a common issue with this car that has the inline 6 cylinder engine. Transmission is also in good condition including reverse gear! Exhaust system is good with no leaks either. The front end is tight with no clunks. The sunroof is operational but needs a very good cleaning and lubrication. The Instrument panel is free of any cracks. All windows work, power seats work, power head restraints work. I have the original owners manual, first aid kit & even the original window sticker from 1991! There is an aftermarket radio installed but I have the original Becker radio with 2 code cards. Very recent tune up (plugs, wires, cap, coil) New Battery earlier this year Oil change just done Within the past 2-3 years: radiator, thermostat, windshield. Has had top end engine work done within the past few years. Front & rear brakes are Good 2 front tires are new, needs 2 rear tires but will have them replaced before the auction. Valve cover needs to be resealed as oil is seeping.The common leak area (front cover area) has no leaks. ABS light is on- Needs OVP Relay to fix the error Brake warning light comes on sometimes due to the parking brake having a little slack which actuates the light Corrosion on Left front (Driver side) fender but that is all! No other corrosion on the body. (Common corrosion spot on these W126 cars) Needs new Hood pad Hood & Roof have imperfections in the paint, not sure if you can tell in the pictures. One instrument cluster bulb is out (The far right side where the Tachometer is) Heater blower does not work. Overall she is a great car & a solid runner. Although she is not perfect, do not let the mileage detract you from this car. I suggest anyone interested in the car to come see it in person. The car is not registered or insured so test drives will be limited unless you agree to: sign a waiver, provide a copy of your license & insurance policy in case of a mishap. Message me with any questions. Shipping of this item is the responsibility of the buyer. The car has NO warranty & sold "as-is" I will only accept $100 Deposit thru PAYPAL. Remaining balance will be due as CASH in person or BANK WIRE TRANSFER only! |

Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold
Wed, 08 Feb 2012Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.
SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
Aston Martin and Daimler continue talks on SUV project, CEO required
Tue, 01 Apr 2014The Aston Martin Lagonda SUV concept revealed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show didn't earn the plaudits the company is used to when it reveals new models, and it has lived an uncertain life ever since. Thought to have been scrapped along with the entire revival of the Lagonda brand, then thought to have been resurrected due to Chinese, Middle Eastern and Russian demand, another year passed before we heard more definitive talk about an Aston Martin expansion when AutoCar reported that the Lagonda could be built on one of Mercedes-Benz's AMG SUV platforms.
A report in Automotive News Europe indicates plans have gotten serious, its unnamed sources saying that the English carmaker is talking to Daimler "to extend their cooperation to building an SUV." Neither Daimler, Aston Martin nor Investindustrial, the managing partner among Aston Martin's ownership consortium, would comment. But with Investindustrial having pledged to expand the range, competitors like Bentley, Maserati and Lamborghini getting into the SUV racket and clear demand from current and future customers, it's easy to believe Aston Martin is working hard to put the pieces together.
One further potential bump on the road to an Aston SUV is the company's search for a new CEO. Ulrich Bez relinquished to top spot at the company at the end of 2013, and Aston reportedly will not finalize its model strategy without a new CEO in place.
