Terrific 1983 Mercedes Benz 300d Clean, Clean Car And Free Shipping on 2040-cars
Madison, Wisconsin, United States
|
Up for Auction, a car that's near and dear to my heart I am currently selling my prized 1983 Mercedes Benz 300D with a little over 250,000 miles. Everyone knows these Mercedes are built to run forever and this car is no exception. Brand new tires and ceramic brakes. The gentlemen I purchased this car from had all of his work done at the local Mercedes store so it is a solid car. Unfortunately for me I have had to commute to Chicago almost every weekend and with putting excessive mileage on my current lease I must get something more practical for a second car. I just don't want to put the mileage on this classic. The only thing that does not currently work in the car is the dash lights, which I believe is a solenoid behind the dash, I just haven't taken it in to be replaced since I rarely drive it at night. Other then that everything else works top knotch, including the massive sunroof. I love this car and will be sad to let it go...but it is currently being stored in a friends garage and I rarely drive it. I did add a pretty nice after market stereo that works excellently and is wired correctly to car in which it turns on when car is in accessory mode. These cars seem to get gobbled up quickly, I had to search about 7 months to get this one, here is your chance to own a rare classic!!! Due to my extensive mileage per month I need a small fuel efficient car that I can put tons of miles on. So my loss is your gain. The headliner was drooping, so I did replace it with a wood strip option, it is removable but I liked it. I know its not for everyone but made me smile while I drove the car. I will provide the vin number and a picture of the interior new headliner within a couple of hours after this auction is posted.
FREE SHIPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!! As described above I will personally deliver this vehicle 200 miles free of charge upon completion of this auction, now you have no excuse to own this car!! Good luck bidding and feel free to ask any questions. |

Test drive the Mercedes SLS AMG Electric Drive with Chris Harris
Thu, 11 Apr 2013It's hard to not like the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT. The all-aluminum coupe is fitted with a wonderful naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. Not only does the burly combustion engine launch the two-seater to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds, but it does so with one of the world's greatest exhaust soundtracks as it roars, burbles and cackles down the road.
But what happens when Mercedes-Benz takes away the V8 and its accompanying fire-burning song? Stripped of one of its most appealing assets, does the SLS lose its soul?
Chris Harris recently had the opportunity to take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive for a track spin in Europe. Sans gasoline, but with four electric motors providing a combined 740 horsepower (737 pound-feet of torque), all-electric all-wheel drive coupe uses sophisticated torque vectoring and a multi-mode operating system to put oversteer - drifting! - back into the equation. Fun? You bet. See for yourself, below.
2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic [w/video]
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Maybe you saw our recent blog snippet on a bunch of US journos getting pulled over in the middle of nowhere in Catalunya, Spain for driving a bunch of new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG models. By all accounts, they weren't speeding - which makes me softly guffaw. I was there in that group, yet I had taken the more direct route into the mountains from Barcelona so that I could... well, so that I could go faster. No one hassled me and I had the Autovia all to myself. And it was the goodniks - the team players - who got nabbed because Spain had decided to suddenly enforce the never enforced "must carry an international driver's license" clause of the highway code.
The departing E63 AMG with 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque from its M157 5.5-liter biturbo V8 hasn't exactly been poorly received. It isn't as crisp as, nor as pleasantly evil as its C63 AMG kid brother, but we generally accept that the heavier and larger car will always feel, well, heavier and larger.
As part of the 2014 E-Class mid-cycle redesign, Affalterbach decided to give its E63 AMG more power and torque for the occasion. The base car now gives off 550 hp and 531 lb-ft, while the hotter S version I tested (formerly the AMG Performance Pack) produces 577 hp and 590 lb-ft. The other big novelty is that E63 sedans will be available with both rear- and all-wheel drive, while all US-spec E63 wagons will be 4Matic equipped.
Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.
