I have for sale a 1995 Mercedes Benz S420 for sale with 175,160 Miles.
I bought the car with good intentions recently but didn't have time to thoroughly test the car. I test drove it and found that the car was sound in most respects as far as driving was concerned and bought the car. 

I will list the pros and cons:
Pros:
1. Fluids topped off, No leaks!
2. Serviced! These include the big expensive items!:
- New TIMING BELT at 147K! (I make a big deal about this one)
- A few new belts, but I'm not sure which.
- New water pump (I remember being told, but I can't be sure)
- New Struts!
- Fluids are good!
- Surprisingly many electronics still function! 
- Leather in front need a bit of TLC. (especially passenger side)
- 2014 Inspected! good till September!!
- No accidents! Straight frame all round! Original paint!
- New battery. Duralast Gold.

Cons:
- Immobilizer and central locking doesn't work. So they were disabled. (Really wanted this feature)
- A few electronics don't seem to work. Such as:
- Seat warmer, trunk switch from inside - only minor stuff. 
- Ignition key module is old. Need to turn on the steering wheel for it to work. (It's really nothing. Starts up fine)
- Aftermarket exhaust that makes a growly noise I absolutely hate! If you're into this sort of thing, then great. But I'm not.
- Passenger side wiper motor is out. 
- It's in good cosmetic shape. But not perfect. 
- CEL on. No idea why. Car drives fine, no really, no idea.
- Battery light flickers. It's got a new battery and may need a reset. Everything works, so it might have something to do with it not getting the Mercedes battery. Duralast Gold.

Car drives and runs smooth, and is a great car for any DIY or someone looking for the most car for his money. It's a real tank of a car. Feels fantastic to drive.

The only reason why I'm selling is because I'm big into the electronics. And I was really really hoping for a seat warmer this winter. No go. :( 
I am a perfectionist, and the electronics matter more to me since I am a moderate DIY guy and can fix most things outside of the engine and tranny but absolutely no clue on electronics. Knowing me I'd dump money into this car making it perfect. But I don't have the resources or the courage to do it (I know I gotta fix it all but think of the cost!) so I no longer want the car. 

It's a solid car. Very good body. Don't expect perfection at 1600 though. If you can get a car this solid at 1600 that even runs this well, then you're lucky. This car runs proper. It's why I bought it but I didn't get to check electronics that well and it's one of my peeves. I need EVERYTHING to work. I bought it for 1,950. I'm letting it go for 1600. My loss is your gain. 
For 1600 you get a solid car, that has been maintained well for it's age. It still turns heads and it's damn imposing. Really feels like a tank. Unbelievably well built. This is one of the best Benz made. And no Benz since could touch it in terms of reliability or build quality.

FIRM ON PRICE. Please come with cash in hand to personally see the car. Nothing else. No paypal. If you're not a serious buyer with the cash, please don't call. I've listed as much as I can in the short time I've had the car. Got clear NY title in hand and ready to go. Priced accordingly! These are still worth a hell of a lot more than what is listed! Car has been parked off since it's not plated. 

Text or call 845-545-5525 for questions. If you intend to buy and drive it away, might want to bring screws as the screws I have are the special kind that need a special wrench. 

Thank you for viewing!

Man makes record-setting drive across the US in 28 hours, 50 minutes

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Records, as the say, are made to be broken. Whether that's cramming the most hot dogs down your gullet, running a faster mile, or yes, driving across the United States, odds are that there's someone out there wants to eat more, run faster or drive harder. Speaking of that last example, the record for driving from a set location on the east coast, in particular the Red Ball Garage in Manhattan to the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach, CA, has been one that has fascinated gearheads since a guy named Cannonball Baker made the trek from New York to LA in 53 hours, 30 minutes, in 1933.
The competition saw its glory days when Car and Driver's Brock Yates came up with the Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining Sea Memorial Trophy Dash (more affectionately known as the Cannonball Run), although the record was most recently set by Alex Roy and his 32-hour, seven-minute trek behind the wheel of a BMW M5 in 2006. Now, there's a new champion, who made the trip from east to west in a scarcely imaginable 28 hours and 50 minutes, behind the wheel of a 2004 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG. That's works out to an average speed of 98 miles per hour over the course of 2,813.7 miles.
His name is Ed Bolian, and Jalopnik has a writeup of the epic voyage that details everything from the history of the Cannonball Run to Bolian's preparation and trouble finding co-drivers, to the trip itself. It is well worth a read.

Mercedes-Benz GLK coupe to get 2016 intro

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Radio chatter around the emerging small, premium crossover coupe genre has thus far been dominated by the Land Rover Evoque and the Mini Paceman. According to a report in Car, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class (shown above) has received its invitation to the party and will spend the next three years getting ready: it's said that two-door variant of the crisply-angled CUV is coming in 2016, along with a redesign befitting its sleeker intentions.
To be based on the MRA platform - the rear-drive version of the company's three new modular platforms, it will also support the coming 2013 S-Class and could eventually get an AMG version to help it compete with segment offerings like the forthcoming Porsche Macan. Not much else is known about it beyond its name: Car says it will be called the GLC, a friendly nomenclature we remember best as a Mazda hatchback (allegedly for "Good Little Car"). Internet oldtimers may remember the Mazda GLC as the predecessor to the 323 (which in turn came before today's Mazda3). Either way, the GLC is not to be confused with the larger upcoming BMW X6 rival based on the ML-Class (reportedly called GLS) which is also said to still be in the works, or the front-drive based GLA, a model also edging toward production.

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA order guide leaked

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The dealer order guide for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA has made its way online courtesy of the crew at CLAForums.com, and not only does it shed light on the ways buyers will be able to configure the entry-level sedan, it talks specific option pricing. Shoppers will be able to select between the CLA250 and CLA250 4Matic, and the option sheet should offer a number of packages to suit buyer tastes, including a sport package with tweaked fascias and unique wheels. Bi-xenon headlamps and 18-inch alloys may also be had as well as a panoramic sunroof and a collision avoidance system. The CLA will be available with a number of active safety systems on board, including lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, park assist and blind spot assist, to name a few.
The new sedan comes in 10 colors, including a very dashing purple Mecedes-Benz calls Northern Lights Violet, and there are a total of four interior trim finishes. The automaker hasn't released final pricing of all models just as of yet - we do know from Mercedes' Kate Upton Super Bowl ad that the car will start at $29,900 - but you can check out individual option and package pricing in the gallery. You can also find more information over at CLAForums.com.
