this car is in very good shape - it has brand new brakes and rotors(last week) - the tires are at about half life - the pictures here were taken last summer but the car has only been driven about 500 miles since these pics were taken - just enough to keep it rolling - i will list everything that i can think of that is an issue - the drivers side door latch is broken but i have a brand new replacement for it - the back driver side window does not open - glass off track i was quoted 400 to fix it but i think it can be done a lot cheaper with some salvage yard searching - drivers side power window sticks but i also have a replacement switch for that - clock and tach don't work on dash - rear wiper and power antenna don't work - drivers side seat is a bit soft - all that being said - the car is great - runs great and is quite clean - i just want to disclose everything so there are no surprises - --- the grease conversion is a one tank system which I have found to be MUCH easier than the dual tank - the filtered grease pours directly into the gas tank and mixed with diesel - you can mix it - use straight grease or straight diesel - whichever you like - the fuel injector and the fuel lines are heated - when you get in the car in the morn you just flip the toggle to heat the lines and wait two min before starting it up - once the car is warm if you are making multiple stops around town you will not need to warm lines every time - in the coldest months you can mix in diesel w grease so it wont clog up - but i usually just use straight diesel once it gets below 30 - (I got stuck one time - lesson learned) --------- the only real rust on the car is under the back wheel wells - see pics - car is super cool to cruise around in - my wife used it as her daily driver for 2-3 years before getting a new car 2 years ago - now we just use it to kick around in - so its time to unload it - i have over 10 k into this car but realize that will be tough to recoup so i will let it go for much less - good luck - feel free to ask questions or come drive it if you are nearby -

Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is Affalterbach's first big leap into the little pond
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The recent history of AMG is turning out amped-up versions of Mercedes-Benz offerings that would hardly ever be mistaken for their sedate counterparts. Sure, you'd need to pay attention to pick a G-Class from the G63 AMG, but dual side-pipes are a quick giveaway. The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is not only a new era in Affalterbach's attention on smaller cars, it is probably also the most subtle transformation we can think of in the line-up.
Low and chunky enough in standard guise to make a sporting impression, the aesthetic makeover is confined to black trim around the lower rim of the hatch, black wheels with red brake calipers and a single, rectangular exhaust tip on either side of the diffuser. It's easier to make a positive ID inside, where the flat-bottomed steering wheel, red seatbelts and red-rimmed details say, "You know what I am..."
If the car is running, though, it won't take but a second. The 2.0-liter turbo spitting 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet will grumble through a sport exhaust at idle, and bellow through the same on it's way to a 0-60 time of less than 4.5 seconds. And if you need something that looks a little harder - and you want those quad pipes - then the A45 AMG Edition 1 is the treasure you seek. There's a press release below for all the info you'll need until the hot hatch goes on sale in Germany later this year, and photos for the rest of us while we wait to find out if we'll get a chance to buy it.
UK workers strand car on island of asphalt to keep working
Wed, 06 Feb 2013Generally speaking, when you illegally park your car, you're likely to get ticketed and towed, but there is probably at least one motorist in Scotland who wishes that was the case. After workers had blocked off a portion of the parking lot for the Edinburgh Waverley railway station, the driver of this Mercedes-Benz S-Class reportedly moved some of the barriers to park in one of the empty spots.
Rather than having the vehicle towed, the work crew simply tore up the asphalt around the leaving just the one parking spot intact, and as you can see in the image above (posted to the Twitter account of Harold Norstad), the crew even built a small asphalt ramp so the car could get off its blacktop pedestal. Since this happened last week, there's no word as to whether the car was eventually moved or towed for the resurfacing work to continue.
Let this be a warning...
Next Mercedes S-Class stretching into this 600 Pullman limo
Fri, 15 Mar 2013To the concern of nobody in particular, Mercedes-Benz will not be re-upping its Maybach line of ultra-luxury limousines. No, instead the German automaker will be stretching its already roomy S-Class, to make this upcoming 600 Pullman version of the decked-out beast.
The car in our new gallery of spy shots is sporting beefy B-pillars and a massive set of rear doors that should allow perfectly graceful ingress and egress from what is likely to be a palatial rear space. (In one photo we can even see a long-wheelbase S-Class in line with the new Pullman, handily exhibiting the size of the new variant.) The exterior modifications are otherwise obscured, though we can guess at revised front and rear fascia and lighting elements, based on both end being heavily taped for these test runs.
It's a good bet that the Pullman will make use of M-B's twin-turbocharged V12 engine, though sources indicate that a hybrid version might eventually be in the offing, as well.
