This car is one of three I am auctioning from my collection. Please see (soon) my 1985 Ferrari Mondial and my custom built 1955 Jaguar convertible, once a four door Mark VII salon, if you are interested. I must sell two of the three as I need the garage space for new cars.

This Mercedes is in superb condition, is my daily driver, and can be driven anywhere in comfort. Originally had a sticker price of $120,000. All records dating back to new are available. Great provenance if you want to show the car. Along those lines, I also have the original analog telephone which I removed from the center console to get space. The rest of the set is still installed in the dash. (See pictures) It has the few spider cracks in hood paint mentioned earlier, has a noisy passenger window when going up, and the radio does not receive AM well. Other than that, everything is fine so far as I know. Four correct tires were new last year and four wheel alignment was done. This year it got a new radiator (had a slight leak), a new air conditioning compressor, and new fuel and A/C lines. Everything works well. It has the factory installed sub woofer and amplifier system behind the seats and a 10 CD changer. (See pictures) The soft top (like new) is lined and hides under a hard boot, fully automatic. Rear window is perfect. There is also a pop-up roll bar and a wind deflecting screen behind the passengers. Good condition authentic Mercedes floor mats. Headlight wipers. And something I have always found interesting - the cam operated single windshield wiper which only Mercedes would dream up. I would recommend you have your mechanic verify the car for your peace of mind; but it has always been serviced by a local certified Mercedes mechanic who will vouch for the car and possibly take a call from the serious buyer.

Always garaged, never wrecked, never smoked in, the car is comfortable, sleek, and fast when you want it to be. If it is important to you, and if the driver does not "horse" the car, it will get near 21 mpg on the road. Please note that the car comes with the orignal owners manual (somewhat worn), other owner info and substantial literature about it. (See pictures) All keys included. Also included is the rolling floor support for the hard top as well as the ceiling hoist if you want it.

This is a V12 at its best. It doesn't grind when you start it but "spools". Very smooth and quiet running, a true luxury sports car with timeless design. Will surely go another 129,000 miles. I have more pictures if necessary. Thank you.

New Mercedes Unimog debuts to the cheers of little boys everywhere [w/video]

Sat, 27 Apr 2013

The Mercedes Unimog, the superhero villain of the off-road world that's just waiting to make the jump to Transformer, has been completely upgraded for its new generation. There are ten models, expanding the range and getting new designations across the traditional all-terrain series and the implement-carrier series. Panoramic cabins get more visibility, multifunction steering wheels and better dash clusters, improved HVAC and a three-mode central tire inflation system. Outside, there are new items like LED headlights and daytime running lamps in the bumper, roof-mounted windshield wipers and a front-camera monitor for the implement carrier.
The new engine lineup is compliant with Euro VI, featuring four- and six-cylinder BlueEfficiency engines putting out anywhere from 156 horsepower to 354 hp. Powerplant placement has also been tweaked, the chassis members getting a revised curve to place the engine a bit further back and lower, maintaining off-road clearance and lowering the Unimog's center of gravity. The new location of the engine means the cabin has more room, and the wheelbase is shorter. Combined with a higher turning angle, the Unimog has a smaller turning radius than before.
The implement carrier gets what's called a "synergistic traveling drive," the bonus being that drivers don't need to stop in order to use an attachment - a hydrostatic transmission works with the regular manual transmission at up to 31 kilometers per hour for seamless switching.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class presentation leaked, debuting in May

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

WorldCarFans was reportedly sent what looks like a dealer presentation on the coming V222 series 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class. There have been hints for years as to the kinds of technology the world's best-selling large luxury sedan will contain, and it appears those hints had some foundation. To be shown in Germany on May 15 before a launch window that runs from September to November this year, the evolutionary design will be built of aluminum and steel, using that lighter material for the front end, roof and "detached body parts."
Among the new options buyers will be able to choose are the Rear Seat Package with rear seatbelt airbags and active buckles that extend, a Warmth and Comfort Package with heated seats front and back, heated armrests and side panels, and power rear seats with active ventilation and memory function. There's a chauffeur seating option that comes with 10-way adjustable rear seats, an extendable footrest and folding tables in the front seatbacks.
Blatant technology will be on display via two 12.3-inch screens, one for the dash cluster and one for the COMAND infotainment screen on the instrument panel. The third generation of Nightview Assist Plus will be able to detect animals as well as humans, and the next generation of Surround View will provide high-res views all around the car. A touchpad and a color head-up display will arrive in 2015. It will be the first Mercedes-Benz to utilize LED lighting everywhere, inside and outside the car.

2014 Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid for fat cats frugal with fuel

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Judging by how long we waited to get a clear shot of the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid, you'd have thought hybrid cars were only driven by Terminators and that the technology arrived only 48 hours ago through a wormhole in the Mercedes stand. The newest member of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class hybrid band - joining the S400 Hybrid and S350 BlueTEC Hybrid, it hits notes like a 5.5-second sprint from standstill to 62 miles per hour, up to 19 miles of ion-powered running and uses three liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers in Europe (78.41 mpg US, but our mpg test cycle is different than their mpg test cycle).
The lump up front is a turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6, the lump in back - note the reduction in trunk space - is a pack of lithium-ion batteries that juice an 80-kilowatt electric motor. Other than having four drive options for controlling electric drive and battery usage, it's all S-Class all the time, with leather-covered everything and those mountainous thrones that bring to mind words like "Archduke" and "Papal."
You'll find our hard-earned gallery from the Frankfurt Motor Show floor above, and more words of information in the press release below.
