I am selling a 1983 Mercedes Benz Turbo Diesel that is in very good condition. I bought the car from the second owner who had it stored in her garage not driven over the past five years. A family member stated that he started the car once every two weeks. I bought the car about a month ago for my wife to drive up and down the mountain from Boulder to Estes Park. She thought the car was a little to out dated for her to drive. The injection pump had been replaced in 2008 prior to being stored. The engine housing is in very clean condition and shows not sign of leaking. I have driven the car for only 200 plus miles, I had the old fuel removed, new diesel put in with a very expensive fuel system cleaner. I had the coolant system flushed and MB coolant put in. The car runs and drives very well and shifts very nice. The car comes with a plug in heater for the block, factory sun roof that opens and closes perfectly. The car has no accidents and the paint shows very well. NO RUST on this car at all, windows work and are very fast up and down. Doors shut like a benz door should. Has cruise control that works, electric passenger mirror, interior is in very nice shape and is the MB Tex. All electrics work except the tach and clock. I am going to have the sending unit for the tach replaced and will be working for the sale of the car. Turbo works well and has good power for hills and passing. The reason I say it works well is I had a Porsche turbo and power after driving that car is hard to gauge. Windshield blades are new, tires are 75% tread left. Chrome and trim are in great condition and have no wear or rust. I have set a reserve and will let the auction run its course. I have no "buy it now" in mind so please do not ask. Car is in great shape and if an individual wants to do a PPI, the cost is on you and must be done prior to the end of auction.
On Apr-04-13 at 13:25:14 PDT, seller added the following information:
The car is a D model and not an E. It was auto posted by ebay and I am unable to change it. Also the door locks are listed as electric, I believe and will probably hear about if I am wrong they are run off a vacuum pump.

Maybach could become Mercedes-Benz sub-brand
Wed, 22 Jun 2011When you're arriving in a twin-turbocharged, twelve-cylinder Maybach limo, there's no reason you should ever have to be late. Except, maybe, to make a fashionable entrance. But up at the corporate level, the entire Maybach brand is being slowed down as critical decisions about its future are being undertaken.
Last week, we reported that a decision on what path Maybach would take going forward would be due at the start of next month, but the latest reports indicate that the timeframe has been extended as further options are being considered.
The previous options under consideration were twofold: either relaunch the brand with production outsourced to Aston Martin - which suddenly finds itself with excess production capacity - or shut it down completely. And those are still two very real options. Word has it that Aston has put together four concept cars for the Daimler brass to consider, all based on the next-generation S-Class platform (and thankfully not the old one).
2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Now Even Sharper Than The Razor's Edge
There have been five Black Series models since the Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Black Series introduced itself to European audiences in 2006. Following that, the Black Series club has hosted appearances by the 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series, the 2009 SL65 AMG Black Series and last year's 2013 C63 AMG Black Series. The sixth member of the group is one we would have thought already was a Black Series car in its standard guise. Right out of the box, the SLS AMG is loud, frenetic, cozy, boisterous and frightfully easy to oversteer. How much more Black did it need to get?
Quite a bit so, apparently. The SLS AMG Black Series has lost weight, gained power and been refitted with upgrades and aero bits from front to rear. If you liked the way it looked before, you'll probably be an even bigger fan of this one. If you thought it looked ungainly, well, this one should stay even further away from pageants. Regardless of where you come down this is the best SLS AMG variant we've driven.
Daimler buying 12% stake in Beijing Auto
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Daimler and Beijing Automotive are officially going steady, with the German company set to take a 12-percent stake in the Chinese brand tomorrow. The two are already tied up in a Mercedes engine plant in Beijing, of which BAIC will increase its stake in, from 50 to 51 percent. Daimler will also get two seats on the Chinese company's board. BAIC may also gain the ability to produce cars on Mercedes-Benz platforms, according to Automotive News Europe.
The investment in BAIC comes ahead of that company's initial public offering, according to a report form Bloomberg, which indicates the deal will be inked tomorrow in the Chinese capital. According to the report, if the circumstances are right, BAIC may turn around and invest in the Germany company "soon."
It's not entirely clear just how much the 12-percent cut is costing Daimler, although it seems reasonable to assume that, as it's ahead of the IPO, the parent company of Mercedes is getting a bit of a bargain.
