1990 Mercedes-benz 420sel Base Sedan 4-door 4.2l on 2040-cars
Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
Up for sale is our beautiful 1990 Mercedes-Benz 420-SEL.
This car is in incredible condition, as seen in the photos. The car only has 70k original miles, and everything functions as it should on the car. This is a rare find. There are no known issues, leaks, etc. At 70K miles, this car is barely broken in! The car was mainly serviced at the Mercedes dealer, and the maintenance booklet has all of the dealer stamps for scheduled maintenance. I am the second owner. There are no rust / corrosion issues on the car. It is simply beautiful and represents a time when Mercedes-Benz produced cars of incredible quality, known for incredible reliability, and impeccable craftsmanship. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. In 1990, this car was over $60k (yes I have the original window sticker). This is a no reserve auction, and I have started the auction at a reasonable price. This is a lot car for the money. These cars are proving more and more difficult to find in this condition, with such low miles. They have a timeless design, which is sure to become a classic in the years to come. I am a car collector, and I have truly enjoyed this car but it is time to let it go. Of all the Mercedes-Benz S class cars I have owned, (both new and vintage) the build quality of this car, and the color combination is by far my favorite. In preparation to sell the car, it was recently serviced, which included the following items: - New Continental Tires (less 1k miles on them) - New front and rear brakes (pads and rotors) - New rear sway bar bushings - Fuel filter replacement - New Bosch spark plugs (less 1k miles ago) - A/C was converted over to R134a. The A/C was recharged two weeks ago. The A/C blows cold and has no leaks or issues. It is ready for the Summer. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thanks and happy bidding. |

2014 Mercedes SL and SLK add small expansion to Takata airbag recall
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Mercedes-Benz is the latest automaker to be affected by Takata's massive airbag recall. The company has announced a voluntary recall campaign on a small number of model-year 2014 SLK- and SL-Class roadsters.
In Mercedes' case, 300 vehicles are affected, 200 of which are in the hands of customers. According to spokesperson Donna Boland, the affected roadsters were built between March and April of this year.
The issue, which is apparently the fault of one of Takata's subcontractors, rests with some improperly installed fasteners, which could keep the airbag from performing the way it's supposed to. According to Boland, Mercedes isn't sure what, if any, injuries the recalled airbags could cause, but simply claims there's an increased risk in these particular vehicles. There's been no reported instances of the faulty airbags deploying on a customer and the original issue was found in a production test.
Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
Mercedes to roll out S65 AMG Coupe in July
Mon, 07 Apr 2014We're still a couple of weeks away from the public debut of the new Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe at the fast-approaching New York Auto Show, but already we're receiving word of an even more powerful version in the works. That, of course, would be the S65 AMG Coupe - the twelve-cylinder version of the latest S-Class Coupe, two-door counterpart to the S65 AMG sedan and replacement for the outgoing CL65 AMG.
Like the four-door version rolled out back in November, the S65 AMG Coupe would be distinguished from less powerful vehicles (which, lets face it, is just about everything) principally by its engine: a massive, 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 that produces 621 horsepower, 738 pound-feet of torque and cares as much about global warming as an oil-shipping mega-tanker.
Because Merc's 4Matic all-wheel drive system can't handle that much torque, the ne plus ultra coupe would (like the S65 sedan but unlike the S63 coupe) be offered only in rear-drive form. That means it will have that much more trouble getting the power down to the road, but since the Magic Body Control suspension is similarly incompatible with 4Matic, the flagship coupe will get that trick suspension.
