Up for sale is a 1992 Mercedes 190E; I've it a couple months back and love it, but have to part with it to finish work on two other cars. Here's the breakdown...

GOOD:
- Sun roof, airbags, and all the standard late model Mercedes perks in one of their most compact, fuel efficient cars
- Minimal weathering (Body, gaskets, and electrical at 95% condition)
- Interior in near perfect condition (just one small tear in driver's seat)
- Wheels, chassis, and engine compartment in excellent condition
- New windshield, engine mounts, fuel & air filters, water pump, AC compressor, viscous fan, OVP relay and voltage regulator, and glass European headlights
- 167k miles (low for these cars, well maintained they run upwards of 300k)
- Good tires (5-8k miles left)
- Upgraded Alpine head unit/speakers, original MB audio deck in trunk, and XM Radio + iPod docks installed (center panel damaged though)

LESS GOOD:
- Suspension starting to creak (will need replacing within 10k miles, or sooner if you're frequently on rough roads)
- Dent in passenger quarter panel (paint intact, dent is barely visible)
- Idle air control is dirty/damaged or contacts somewhere in the fuel system are weathered (idles low, gets overgassed coming out of neutral, and occasionally stalls at hard stops or when cold-starting)
- Catalytic converter and exhaust hangers rusted (still functional though, and the underbody is otherwise in great shape)

Most problems are straightforward fixes, I just don't have the time to chase them down currently and the car is road-worthy without. Overall, this is a very clean and reliable car; I'll even drive to deliver within 500 miles of Charlottesville, Virginia (ZIP 22902) at a rate of $1.25 per mile.

$500 deposit due within 5 days of auction ending; I take personal and cashier's checks, money orders, cash, and VISA/Mastercard/Paypal (add 3%). Balance due within 14 days of the end of auction. Don't hesitate to contact with questions!

Race recap: 2016 Bahrain Grand Prix was everything good and bad about F1

Mon, Apr 4 2016

Nothing was as it seemed heading into Bahrain. We were told team bosses had nixed the qualifying experiment that flunked every test by every measure in Australia, but that didn't happen. The FIA didn't give the teams the option of a wholesale return to the old format, the governing body only held a vote on whether to revert back to the old format in Q3 but stick with elimination gimmicks in Q1 and Q2. McLaren and Red Bull dissented, denying the chance for hybrid rounds. We're surprised none of the smaller teams voted against since elimination qualifying is hardest on them. Given the chance to fix the system again in Bahrain, Formula 1 failed again. The FIA and Bernie Ecclestone don't want to go back to the old system – because the race promoters don't want to go back to the old system – so all we know for sure is that there will be more meetings. We also thought Fernando Alonso would race in Bahrain after being given medical clearance, but a follow-up scan by the FIA showed fractured ribs and a damaged lung, ruling him out. And we thought Ferrari might have the pace to conquer Mercedes-AMG Petronas this year – and they might yet, but not on Saturday. That's why the Bahrain race began with another Mercedes one-two, Lewis Hamilton ahead of Nico Rosberg, Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen behind. The Australian outback is plagued with rabbits, which must have something to do with how Daniel Ricciardo keeps pulling them out of his helmet; the Aussie got his Red Bull up to a surprising fifth on the grid. Williams drivers Valtteri Bottas in sixth and Felipe Massa in seventh would need to get him out of the way quickly to show what the car can do after an unsatisfying race in Australia. Nico Hulkenberg lined up in eighth for Sahara Force India. As proof the qualifying format failed again with its sophomore attempt, the last five minutes of Q2 were disappointing. Hulkenberg had the track completely to himself for his quali run, the only two cars on track after him were the Williams duo who weren't setting a time, but getting a set of soft tires ready to start the race on. As for Q1, the only reason for on-track action in the last three minutes was because Hamilton flubbed his first timed run. Romain Grosjean continued Haas F1's fruitful start to the season with ninth place, ahead of Max Verstappen in the Toro Rosso closing out the top ten. At the end of a long red light to start the race, Rosberg claimed his right to victory before Turn 1.

Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG shows up to fight the hottest hatches [w/videos]

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Fun coincidence. On the same day that Audi announces the unveiling of its new S3 Sportback at the Geneva Motor Show, Mercedes-Benz steals the spotlight by confirming that the all-new A45 AMG will also receive its official debut early next month. Starting life as the entry-level A-Class hatchback, the A45 AMG gets the full AMG treatment, which includes numerous performance, handling and styling upgrades.
Under the hood sits an AMG-tuned 2.0-liter turbocharged I4 breathing through a sport exhaust system helping the five-door produce 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired to a seven-speed AMG dual-clutch transmission and power is sent to the ground using 4Matic all-wheel drive. Mercedes-Benz says that the A45 AMG will be able to accelerate from 0-60 miles per hour in under 4.5 seconds and it will have a top speed of 155 mph; in the land of hot hatches, it doesn't get much hotter than that. For added performance and handling, AMG has retuned the A-Class' suspension and steering systems and equipped The A45 with a three-stage stability control system that is specific to this car.
Surprisingly, the exterior styling of the A-Class was already sporty enough that the new model doesn't receive too many changes to become the A45 AMG. The biggest alterations include black accents to the chin spoiler, rocker panels and mirror caps, black wheels with red-painted brake calipers and rectangular dual exhaust outlets. Inside, it doesn't take a trained eye to spot the differences. The flat-bottomed sport steering wheel and the numerous red accents throughout the cabin (including the seatbelts!) really help to make this AMG interior stand out; front passengers will also get sport bucket seats that appear to be more than supportive enough for even the most spirited driving conditions.
