This mercedes has only 63 K original miles. There was an issue with engine and I had it replaced with a rebuilt one. Also to make sure that all component work truble free in future, either I had them replaced with OEM new one or, rebuilt and serviced them.
For examle :Rotors, brake flexible hooses, rear shocks and coil springs, starter, trunk and hood seals, the exhust system, clutch and pressure plate, clutch master sylinder and slave sylinder, were all changed with OEM new ones. Also radio was replaced with a cd, mp3 player. Radiator , heater core and fuel tank were cleaned profetionally.
Transmission and rear end were serviced. Anyway, other parts of this vehicle like seats,are in excellent shape, dash is in goog shape exept clock that works on and off, speedometer recently calibrated and works fine, autometer works too (showing exact miles on rebuilt engine), tires are good, front end of the vehicle is been fixed and aligned, paint is good except couple of spots that of course you don't notice it in the pictures, can be touched up. This kind of antic vehicles normally statr rusting around the head lights, wich ofcourse this one is rust free in that area, nor at floor. It still has original floor mat. Also you don't notice jack wholes, because the rocking pannel is covered with a galvenized sheet metal. Spare tire is original one and is good. Anyway you can immagine how much money is spent to make it dependable, and during last year that I was driving it there has not been any prblem with it .you can drive it anywhere even cross country.it has low fuel consumption and hassel free. Please feel free to ask any question due to fact that this is a final sale. I started this auction with no reserve and small start. This is not a regular used car, I am sure after many years driving it, you can get most of your money back, or hopefully you leave it for your grand children. Good Luck.

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.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
Erebus Motorsport Mercedes E-Class V8 Supercar completes the field [w/videos]
Sat, 23 Feb 2013Ford, Holden and Nissan introduced their V8 Supercar challengers a while back. Erebus Motorport, whose racing program got the green light not even 120 days ago, has finally shown off the Mercedes-Benz E-Class racer that will complete this year's field of entries. The first AMG race car ever to be built outside of Germany, it's an Australian-built tube-frame chassis specced to the series' Car of Tomorrow rules, fitted with body panels that channel the E63 AMG.
Supported by AMG Customer Motorsport, the 5.0-liter engine is provided by HWA in Germany, the racing arm of AMG. Regulations dictate that it have roughly 650 horsepower, a redline between 7,000 and 7,500 rpm and a torque curve that matches the parity baseline set for all cars.
Lee Holdsworth, Tim Slade and Maro Engel will drive the three team cars, each with different sponsors. Their first showing will be at the Clipsal 500 on March 3 in Adelaide, here in the US we'll get to see them in May at the Circuit of the Americas. Check out the videos below of the Erebus car starting up at its launch, and footage of all of this year's cars doing pre-season testing on track together.
