1984 Mercedes Benz W123 chassis model 300D Turbo Diesel
NON Smoker and NO Pets vehicle, smells like new
The car was recently brought from out west and our housing situation has changed, we recently sold our house and have been reluctant to find another, we are leasing a townhouse with only two parking spaces, so our very beloved and a long time in searching for Benz has to go to a new home.
The previous owners, elderly couple in their late 80's which cared and drove this car for the past 20 plus years and purchased the car with a mere 30,000 miles. This 300 D has had 2 previous owners and comes with a clean car fax/ auto check. The Mercedes log book indicates their devotion to keeping this car running like it should and all service records being performed at the Mercedes-Benz dealer.
Recent work preformed
- brakes front and back ,
- tires
- exhaust

- cruise control amplifier replaced.
- Valves were recently adjusted.
- Drive shaft center support and bearing was just replaced.
- Headlights were replaced and adjusted the beam.
- The sunroof switch was starting to hesitate and I had that replaced as well as
- The rear right passenger window switch trim replaced, it was cracked.
- The Fuel Hand primer pump was replaced and a new updated Bosch version was installed

Amazing condition for the year and awesome mileage, it has no cracks on the dash, original windshield, original tool kit, original Becker radio am/fm cassette (and it works great). The engine and transmission run great with no hesitations, cruises along great weather in the city or on the highway 70,75,80 MPH + with no issues, car rides great and handles awesome. Front end is tight and does not slop or have play. I had it checked over at our local M-B diesel specialist and after taking for a spin , he was very impressed and amazed on how peppy the car was compared to other 300D Turbo's he drove. All interior is in almost like new condition, the seats feel great not sagging. Headliner is in excellent condition, carpet is clean. I do have a set of M-B floor mats that I will include with the car. Full spare, jack and original emergency kit included.
If the winning bidder chooses to fly in and drive the car home I will gladly pick up at Detroit Metro Airport (D.T.W.) at no charge. I will also fill up the fuel tank upon purchase. If you prefer to have the vehicle transported I can assist with helping preparing and reading the car for pick up, all transport fee's are the buyers responsibility. I will assist if needed to deliver the car within a reasonable radius but not before the car is paid for. For Canadian buyers, I will assist with delivering the car to the Windsor, Ontario border at the Ambassador bridge on the U.S.A side. If you need a 30 day temporary tag to get the car home one can be provided for the fee of one from Department of Transportation. I think they are $15. Please specify this so that I can have time to get one for you. Seller reserves the right to end auction early.
****If you need a picture of a certain area please send me a message and I will take any specific picture you request, the quality of the pics were distorted a bit as they were rather large before uploading them. *****

Mercedes A45 AMG in downhill battle with slipstream skateboarder
Mon, 30 Sep 2013We're told it takes "performance, control and expression" to pilot a longboard skateboard down a mountain road, and that those happen to be the same values embodied in the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. That's how the two came to be combined in a black-and-white short film called Silver Slipstream.
There's no talking, no engine note and no color, just some music, a 'boarder and a car on a long cruise down the Franschhoek Pass in the Western Cape of South Africa." Despite that, it's actually a pretty entertaining video of the latest Mercedes-Benz hot hatch married with extreme sports. You can watch how it all goes down in the video below.
Mercedes releases 6x6 G63 AMG specs and pics [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz has finally dropped full details on its insane G63 AMG 6x6. The machine puts 544 horsepower to all six wheels thanks to a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8. A seven-speed gearbox shuttles power to the ground via three sets of portal axles, which helps give this machine a full 15.75 inches of ground clearance. By comparison, the standard G63 AMG sits with just 8.27 inches of ground clearance. The extra lift allows this 6x6 to ford nearly 40 inches of water and run massive 37-inch tires. All told, there are five differential locks on this thing, all controlled by a special "locking logic" that provides the best traction possible for any given situation.
The controls offer up three stages of locking, which we can only assume range from JKLOL to OMGWTF. Right now, AMG says this monstrosity is only a show vehicle, but we imagine it wouldn't take much to convince the team to whip up one of your very own. Check out our full gallery and the press release below for all the nitty gritty. While you're down there, you can also check out the video on the machine one more time.
Man makes record-setting drive across the US in 28 hours, 50 minutes
Fri, 01 Nov 2013Records, as the say, are made to be broken. Whether that's cramming the most hot dogs down your gullet, running a faster mile, or yes, driving across the United States, odds are that there's someone out there wants to eat more, run faster or drive harder. Speaking of that last example, the record for driving from a set location on the east coast, in particular the Red Ball Garage in Manhattan to the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach, CA, has been one that has fascinated gearheads since a guy named Cannonball Baker made the trek from New York to LA in 53 hours, 30 minutes, in 1933.
The competition saw its glory days when Car and Driver's Brock Yates came up with the Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining Sea Memorial Trophy Dash (more affectionately known as the Cannonball Run), although the record was most recently set by Alex Roy and his 32-hour, seven-minute trek behind the wheel of a BMW M5 in 2006. Now, there's a new champion, who made the trip from east to west in a scarcely imaginable 28 hours and 50 minutes, behind the wheel of a 2004 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG. That's works out to an average speed of 98 miles per hour over the course of 2,813.7 miles.
His name is Ed Bolian, and Jalopnik has a writeup of the epic voyage that details everything from the history of the Cannonball Run to Bolian's preparation and trouble finding co-drivers, to the trip itself. It is well worth a read.
