1967 Mercedes Benz 230SL for auction.
This is a no reserve auction - the highest bidder gets the Pagoda.
This is a fully documented 230SL that was in one hand for the last 30 years. It was always garaged.
7000 miles ago the engine underwent a major restoration. It took one year and over $20k to get it to the point where it is right now. Photo documentation comes with the car. The car runs and drives fantastic. The 4 speed tranny shifts perfectly. It is just a pleasure to drive the Mercedes. The paint looks nice but needs some attention. There are some flaws that needs to be touched up or in my opinion this car deserves a new professional paint job. I have more photos that shows the flaws. The interior is very nice. It looks like the carpet is still the original and with a new carpet kit the car would look even better inside. The canvas top was recently replaced with an special ordered replacement high quality soft top from Germany. The hardtop is in good condition. The headliner could use a good cleaning. Softtop and hardtop are fitting good -- there are no gaps or problems to close or open/take them off. The undercarriage looks solid. I pulled the carpet up and there is some surface rust but no cancer. Body is straight. Chrome is nice - not perfect.
In my opinion this car is a good driver with some touch ups on the paint or just drive it as is. If you decide to repaint the car you would have a super nice 230SL. Just alone the engine compartment is fabulous - the car won several trophy's back in the days because of the engine.
Like mentioned before - I can send you more photos of the car. Just send me a message.
You can call me at 954-643-8380 to discuss the car. I speak english and german.

Mercedes-Benz CLA stars in sweeping short with supermodel Karlie Kloss
Wed, 16 Jan 2013The Mercedes-Benz CLA earned itself a spot on our list of the top five unveils of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and for good reason. The German luxury compact is the first small car from the Silver Arrow that looks suitably premium inside and out. Nowness.com has turned out a new video of the CLA featuring super model Karlie Koss in the lead role. We aren't entirely sure what the premise is, but from what we can tell, it looks as if the CLA comes to life and proceeds to be a giant jerk.
After Koss stops to take a closer look at a white horse, the CLA gives the supermodel the old stop-and-go treatment before leaving her on the side of the road. Eventually, the sedan makes nice, but Koss has to ride shotgun instead of taking the controls herself. You can check out the video below to see for yourself.
2014 Mercedes SL and SLK add small expansion to Takata airbag recall
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Mercedes-Benz is the latest automaker to be affected by Takata's massive airbag recall. The company has announced a voluntary recall campaign on a small number of model-year 2014 SLK- and SL-Class roadsters.
In Mercedes' case, 300 vehicles are affected, 200 of which are in the hands of customers. According to spokesperson Donna Boland, the affected roadsters were built between March and April of this year.
The issue, which is apparently the fault of one of Takata's subcontractors, rests with some improperly installed fasteners, which could keep the airbag from performing the way it's supposed to. According to Boland, Mercedes isn't sure what, if any, injuries the recalled airbags could cause, but simply claims there's an increased risk in these particular vehicles. There's been no reported instances of the faulty airbags deploying on a customer and the original issue was found in a production test.
