This is a beautiful Mercedes that still runs and drives like a dream! It has never been smoked in and has always been garage kept. The best part of THIS car is that you don't have to take MY word for it, IT COMES WITH A WARRANTEE! I have a bumper to bumper extended warrantee that does not expire until March 29th of 2013. So that means that if you drive it for a couple of weeks and think that you feel the transmission slipping, or the the engine not running smoothly, you just take it to the dealer and get it repaired or replaced! The warrantee costs only $25.00 to transfer into your name, and it covers the engine, trans, electrical, seals and gaskets, steering, air conditioning, timing belt, cooling systems, fuel systems, hi-tech electrical, substitute transportation, 24-hour roadside assistance, it basically covers everything except wear and tear items like tires, brakes and suspension. Well, those items that are not covered, I just replaced myself! I put new brakes on it four months ago, and the two front tires are new, the two rear are six months old, and the suspension is all brand new! These cars come with an Air-Matic suspension that makes the drive incredibly smooth, but this suspension tends to go out after about ten years or so. My car first had an air leak in the front, it is so common that Mercedes actually has a kit to repair it, it cost $1,000.00! My car also needed the compressor,and other parts, replaced in the rear and that costs around $3,000.00! I had both of the repairs made at the Mercedes dealership and have all the receipts. If you don't buy this car, make sure to ask about the Air-Matic suspension on the Mercedes you do buy, like I said, it is very common for it to start leaking air. Once the air starts leaking, the car sits so low to the ground that it is not drivable, it has to be flat bedded to the dealer for repair. I have a picture of my car on the flatbed also. I love this car and thought I would have it for at least another 80,000 miles! Unfortunately, my family has outgrown it and I hate to say it, but my Mercedes days are over and I have to embrace my minivan years. Good luck, and enjoy!

Aston Martin and Daimler continue talks on SUV project, CEO required
Tue, 01 Apr 2014The Aston Martin Lagonda SUV concept revealed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show didn't earn the plaudits the company is used to when it reveals new models, and it has lived an uncertain life ever since. Thought to have been scrapped along with the entire revival of the Lagonda brand, then thought to have been resurrected due to Chinese, Middle Eastern and Russian demand, another year passed before we heard more definitive talk about an Aston Martin expansion when AutoCar reported that the Lagonda could be built on one of Mercedes-Benz's AMG SUV platforms.
A report in Automotive News Europe indicates plans have gotten serious, its unnamed sources saying that the English carmaker is talking to Daimler "to extend their cooperation to building an SUV." Neither Daimler, Aston Martin nor Investindustrial, the managing partner among Aston Martin's ownership consortium, would comment. But with Investindustrial having pledged to expand the range, competitors like Bentley, Maserati and Lamborghini getting into the SUV racket and clear demand from current and future customers, it's easy to believe Aston Martin is working hard to put the pieces together.
One further potential bump on the road to an Aston SUV is the company's search for a new CEO. Ulrich Bez relinquished to top spot at the company at the end of 2013, and Aston reportedly will not finalize its model strategy without a new CEO in place.
BMW expects China to pass US as its top market in 2013
Thu, 11 Jul 2013When you combine two billion citizens, 100 cities with more than a million inhabitants and an economy that's as unrestrained as Jim Cramer on an Adderall binge, China's explosive auto industry growth shouldn't be a huge surprise. Audi already lists the communist country as its largest market, while Mercedes-Benz is expecting it to be there in the next few years. Now, according to a report from Automotive News, BMW is expecting the People's Republic to overtake the United States in sales by the end of 2013.
We already discovered the extent that BMW is going to in establishing a dedicated Chinese stronghold, when we explored BMW's Shanghai-based DesignWorks studio ahead of April's Shanghai Motor Show. And while we argued that DesignWorks Shanghai hasn't really borne fruit, it isn't due to a lack of sales.
BMW China has seen a 16-percent jump in year-over-year sales, lead by a 28-percent gain in 5 Series sales. Part of BMW's growth strategy comes from an ever-expanding dealership network. Remember those 100 cities we mentioned with over one million people? According to Karsten Engel, CEO of BMW's Chinese operations, those 100-million-plus city dwellers don't have access to a premium dealership.
Mercedes fits new C-Class with AMG kit
Sat, 28 Dec 2013It's only been a week and a half since Mercedes-Benz revealed the new C-Class, and it'll likely be a while yet before the replacement for the C63 AMG comes along. But if you want to see a preview of what it'll look like, look no further than the AMG aero kit that has just surfaced.
Expected to debut on the new C-Class at the fast-approaching Detroit Auto Show, the AMG Line Exterior Pack adds a new bumpers front and rear, side skirts, dual exhaust tips, mesh grille, aluminum window frames and - most importantly - 18-inch alloys packing upgraded brakes and fitted to a lowered sport suspension. All of which will help any C-Class look the part, even if the engine remains stock.
