18,179 Original Miles! on 2040-cars
Hartly, Delaware, United States
|
I challenge you to find another car of this age, in this condition, with 18,179 ORIGINAL miles on it! I bought this fantastic car for fun just over 3 1/2 years ago, and have put less than 1,000 miles on it. My schedule just doesn't allow time to go out cruisin', and this baby is meant to GO! I am only the 3rd owner of this car, with the 2nd owner simply facilitating the sale from the dealership to which the car was traded by the original owner years ago. The car was parked at an auxiliary lot and forgotten, found only when the dealership went out of business. This is the proverbial "barn find"...parked and forgotten. The registration records bear this out, as do the items that have been replaced due to the car just sitting idle...new radiator, new fuel lines, new tires, new O2 sensor, new blue-tooth compatible radio, plus I have had the wheels professionally refinished.
Adding to the value of this great car, is the fact that it has the original windshield with the original Mercedes Benz sticker on the lower driver's side corner, plus the original window price sticker and all service manuals and brochures included with the original delivery. It also has the original first aid kit and top-changing tool with it. This car is a solid "10-footer", with far less exterior wear than one would expect on a car of this age. There is a small tear in the leather on the passenger seat, a small tear in the original soft top, and a crack in the leather dashboard. But none of these slight cosmetic flaws compares to the fact that this car has only 18,179 ORIGINAL miles on it. Flaws can be fixed, but these original miles are going to be hard to find elsewhere! I am happy to assist with making shipping arrangements through our local UPS Store, if you desire. Please feel free to email me with any questions. Thanks! |

Autoblog drives to the Arctic Circle
Fri, 22 Mar 2013In Which Mercedes' Sprinter Becomes A Long-Distance Sherpa
In the wintery wilds of northern Alaska, even the cute little critters want to kill you.
As I am about to nod off on my long leg flight from Minneapolis to Anchorage ahead of driving to the Arctic Circle, the friendly twenty-something Alaskan knitting furiously in the seat next to me pauses and says, "When you're driving up there, don't open your windows." In the dead of winter? I hadn't planned on cruising alfresco, but her warning to keep the glazing snugged against the weatherstripping is one I would take to heart. She continues: "If you leave 'em open, a fox is liable to jump right in. There are lots of rabid foxes up there, and they leap into your car and just Go. To. Town." And here I was, thinking that a curious bear or maybe an ill-placed moose in the road was going to be my biggest potential four-legged threat. In the wintery wilds of northern Alaska, even the cute little critters want to kill you.
Mercedes making aggressive plans for Chinese market
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Mercedes-Benz is preparing a major product offensive to counteract lagging sales in the Chinese market, aiming 20 new or updated models at the People's Republic in the next two years, according to a report by Reuters. The plan is part of MB's so-called 2020 Initiative, which will see the Stuttgart-based manufacturer dump 2 billion Euros ($2.67 billion) into its Chinese market vehicles in a bid to boost sales to 300,000 units by 2015.
Were it to succeed, China would become the largest market for the Silver Arrow, outpacing Germany and the United States. Leading the charge will be the redesigned E-Class, which is set to launch in China this week. That will quickly be followed by the S-Class, and eventually by the GLA-Class in 2014.
Mercedes has struggled in China, especially relative to its German competition, BMW and Audi. Where Mercedes saw a mere four-percent increase in 2012 sales to 206,150 units, Audi was up a staggering 32 percent, while BMW's numbers jumped 41 percent. While some voices, according to Reuters, accuse Munich and Ingolstadt of boosting their numbers through hefty incentives, the fact remains that Mercedes was just walloped by its competitors last year.
Mercedes-AMG teases GT interior, announces fall 2014 debut
Tue, 15 Apr 2014Mercedes-Benz opted to tease the assembled media at its post-New York Auto Show party, showing off a pair of images of the exquisitely crafted interior of the highly anticipated successor of the SLS AMG - the V8-powered Mercedes-AMG GT.
Slated for a debut in the fall at either Paris or Los Angeles (we're betting Paris), you'll note straight away that there's something wrong with this car's name. Where's the "Benz?" Well, it's been ditched to, as Mercedes says, "make the dream of the authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car come true." Sorry Karl.
"The new Mercedes-AMG GT proves that we will be positioning AMG as a dynamic sports car brand even more strongly and aggressively than before," said Tobias Moers, CEO of Mercedes-AMG.
