I bought this car from the 2nd owners who had owned it for 20 years. They took great care of it. When I bought it, the owners were moving to Colorado to be near their children and they were going to drive the car out there. Their son intervened. Not because the car would not make it, but because his parents were in their 80's. My wife and I just used the car this weekend  on a trip to Pennsylvania Dutch Country, a round trip of about 150 miles. The car performed flawlessly. Runs very cool, excellent oil pressure and cruised steady at 80 mph on the PA Turnpike. It was PA inspected in March and passed with flying colors. Runs very nice and tracks down the road straight and solid. The previous owners put a matched set of Pirelli P6's on the car and they still have half their tread life left. They used Mobil 1 for their oil changes and the car idles perfectly and you cannot feel it running when stopped at a light. All electrics work including the headrests on the seats and the passenger power mirror. Sunroof, windows all work perfectly. The central locking system works nicely.I even tried the cruise control today( I hate cruise control) but wanted to see if it worked and it did. Has an aftermarket Blaupunkt cd player/ radio. The son, who acted on behalf of his parents when the car was sold to me, told me it was his mom's car. He told me she used those big shade boards when she went out and put them in the front windshield and rear package shelf. It paid off as the dash is beautiful and the rear package shelf and tops of rear seats are beautiful also. The door panels are really nice as ar the carpets. The seats are not split or ripped and have only age cracks in the leather. They are very presentable. The only thing that might have to be addressed in the interior is the rear headliner has gotten puffy over the back package shelf. I got a quote to have it drawn tight again. The shop quoted me 125-150. It's for time only, the headliner material is in fine condition. The a/c will have to be recharged as it was only cool last year and now is just warm. The body is very nice. The paint just absolutely glows. I cleaned and polished the car myself and it came up nicely. All the brightwork is very nice. There are 2 spots where the body has bubbled. The one spot is about the size of a quarter and the other spot 2 quarters. I have included the spots in the pucs. They are minor. The bumpers have some scrapes but mostly are decent. I have just ordered spray paint to match the bumpers. It's called Sato Gray and it comes in semi gloss just like the bumpers. I will include that for the new owner. Even the wheels, which have some nicks as you would imagine a 25 yaer old car would, have nice gloss to them. I get thumbs up and people asking me about it all the time. It's not a show car but is extremely presentable and you will be proud to drive this car as I have been.

Mercedes-Benz releases US-spec 2014 Sprinter details

Mon, 06 May 2013

Last week, Mercedes-Benz released the details for the updated 2013 Sprinter intended for global markets, but this week it has announced what changes are being made to the US-spec version of the van for the 2014 model year, including the Freightliner model. As expected, most of the changes made to the European model will be present on the 2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter when it goes on sale in the US, which is expected to be this fall.
The biggest difference between the Sprinter announced last week and the one headed to our shores is what is found under the hood. While European Sprinters will come with diesel engines and offer the availability of a supercharged four-cylinder gasoline or CNG engine, US Sprinters will still offer the 3.0-liter V6 BlueTEC diesel. This year's Sprinter now comes standard with a new base engine, the 2.1-liter four-cylinder BlueTEC diesel. This smaller engine will produce 161 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque, and will be paired to a seven-speed automatic transmission; the optional 3.0 V6 puts out 188 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, and will be mated to a six-speed auto.
Fuel economy for the new Sprinter has not been announced, but Mercedes-Benz has made numerous changes with the goal of improving efficiency. To this end you'll find a new, low-friction rear axle and the optimization for the generator, fuel pump and power steering pump.

Mercedes testing C-Class plug-in hybrid modes in Germany

Wed, 07 May 2014

Testing appears to be underway for what would be the first Mercedes-Benz C-Class with a hybrid powertrain. We can see a pair of the prototypes undergoing testing in Germany, with one, a C-Class Wagon, still heavily clad in camouflage and featuring a more noticeable outlet on the passenger side of its rear bumper.
There's also a more production-looking sedan, which features a not-so-discreet flap over its rear-bumper outlet. It's difficult to speculate on power outputs for this fuel-sipping C-Class, although our spies seem to think that this car will feature some combination of a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor, although just which four is unclear (note, we wouldn't mind if MB fit its 2.0-liter turbo with some batteries and motors). Regardless, the four-pot/electric motor seems like a pretty reasonable combo, although it probably means that Mercedes won't be challenging the six-cylinder-powered system of the BMW ActiveHybrid3 any time soon.
When the plug-in C-Class arrives later this year as a 2015 model, it will likely offer a full range of driving modes, including both gas or electric, only, as well as a more traditional hybrid mode.

Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA gets official ahead of Shanghai

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Mercedes-Benz has something special planned for the Shanghai Motor Show - a new CUV concept that we first saw when it leaked on the internet yesterday. The GLA Concept compact crossover will hit the show stand with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive, and likely previews a new production model that we've already spotted testing.
That's not news, but the laser-based headlamps with video-projecting capability certainly are. Mercedes-Benz says the array can project any image or video onto a screen, which is handy since there are a pair of HD cameras mounted to the roof rack. The cameras can be removed and taken with you on all sorts of adventures. The lamps also feature a visible cooling system comprised of a series of fans, and the system helps give the headlights their "sparkle" effect.
Step indoors and the GLA offers up the interior of a high-quality crossover, complete with contrasting leather and plenty of aluminum. The automaker says the cabin was inspired by saddle craftsmanship with "more than 65 feet of hand-stitched seams to hold the raw edges of the leather together."
