Mercedes Benz 450 SEL bought in Germany in 1977 by the ambassador (Charles Valdez) to the Vatican from the Philippines appointed by Dictator Ferdanian Marcos. This car was then transported with the ambassador to California and then sent to the Philippines with him. I guess he decided the philippines was not for him so he and the car were sent to Hawaii where he spent a few years only to decide to move again to central Florida. As you can see this car has spent more miles on a boat in a container that on the road but still rides like a Mercedes. I found the car while doing a job for the 2nd owner (the cousin of the ambassador) who is now 80 years old and decided he would part with it so I decided I would list it for him. He drives it about once a month and his last trip in it was a couple of years age when he and 3 buddies went to Georgia to play golf. Car has always worked well. Everything is oroginal. No rust, so clear coat peel you can see in a picture, Trunk seal is leaking as I found out when I washed it, but the car has been inside a garage its whole like so its never been an issue. Its a beautiful example of a powerful sedan. The trunk lid seems to be the worst of the paint where the clear coat is missing other than that the paint is really nice for its age. All the lenses are original and look like new (no sun) All gauges work including clock, car starts right up and tyranny shifts perfectly but then again its only 67K miles on a mercedes benz. Price will start low with no reserve. Car is in Orlando Florida.

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...
Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut
Wed, 17 Apr 2013With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale
Fri, 10 May 2013There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.
