Meticulously maintained E320 that combines luxury, safety, durability and awesome turbocharged diesel power in one handsome sedan. I've owned this vehicle for over three years and am selling to make room in the garage after downsizing the house and recent retirement. This has been an unbeatable highway cruiser and comfortable daily driver. In DC-area traffic it gets around 28 MPG, but will reach 34+ MPG if you can keep it under 80 MPH (beware, this car is quick when motivated). Maintained by the best indy MB mechanic in Northern Virginia (IMHO), it's been all normal wear-and-tear. Beyond the standard MB maintenance, I've replaced all the glow plugs, both batteries, tires (about 50% tread remaining) and lower thrust arms in the front suspension. This is the last year for the old-school cast iron block diesel with no urea injection system hassle & expense. Properly maintained, will give many years of faithful service.
It was involved in one minor traffic accident in 2011 while stopped at a traffic signal. This required replacement of the rear bumper facia and resetting the whiplash protection headrests (a really useful safety feature). Post-accident photos available upon request. Since the rest of paint work is all original, there are some very minor scratches and dings, but is in great shape. I avoid driving it during infrequent DC snow storms to avoid the chemicals, and get it washed whenever I do--to include the undercarriage Likewise the interior has very minor wear and was never smoked in, as far as I can tell. This is an excellent car overall and will sell fast to the discriminating buyer. Available for local pick-up only.

Paul di Resta returns to DTM with Mercedes

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Some drivers manage to make the transition from one form of motor racing into another, and some run into trouble. Take Paul di Resta, for example. The promising young Scottish driver dominated Formula 3 racing in Europe in 2006, then moved over to Germany's hugely competitive DTM touring car series where he finished second in 2008, third in 2009 and first in 2010. But things didn't go as smoothly for Paul - cousin to retired Indy champion Dario Franchitti - when he moved in to Formula One with the Force India team.
In three years on the grid, he failed to score a single podium finish. Little surprise, then, that Force India opted not to renew his contract for this season. Left without a ride, di Resta is now going back to DTM with longtime supporter Mercedes-Benz, testing the new C-Class touring car today in Portugal. It's good news for Mercedes, which is celebrating 120 years in motor racing this season and, with 2005 champion Gary Paffett also on board, can now count two former champions on its DTM roster.
We wouldn't count Paul out of F1 for good, though. When he won the DTM title four years ago, he was also moonlighting as Force India's test driver, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him pull similar double-duty with the Mercedes F1 team (or another Benz-powered outfit) this year before spring-boarding back into grand prix racing in the future. At 27 years old, he may not have been the youngest driver on the grid this year, but he's still got a good few years ahead of him.

2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Now 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.
