1972 Mercedes Benz 280SE 4.5: One of truly great Mercedes of all times with Athletic handling and the ability to cruise the Autobahn all day long at 100mph.Tough as nails and solid as a rock. This Vehicle is Totally RUST FREE - It Runs & Drives as it did when new. The Vehicle is fully equipped sans sunroof and everything works as it did when new to include Cold Factory AC, Original Becker Europa Stereo radio, Clock, Power Windows lifts and manual vent windows. Carpeting, Seats, Headliner, Wood, Dash, Console and Steering Wheel are original and Flawless. A New set of period correct cocoa mats "pop" when you open the door(s). Only Flaw: drivers window "sill" has a hair crack on the vinyl. All bright metal and body seals are in excellent condition. Tires are high tread, matched radials in the proper size. The Trunk has the original rubber mat that is not torn or stained (mat is brittle and requires care when lifting). When the mat is lifted, there are no rust stains from condensation. The Engine compartment is totally unmolested original, no modifications or after market accessories and has not been cleaned for sale presentation. Shocks and radiator were recently replaced together with a full service. Vehicle preforms flawlessly without mystery creaks or noises and is ready to be driven anywhere. The Doors make that wonderful "whong" sound when closed. All Original Books in their vinyl pouch include Becker Radio books, Kangol lap belt instructions and a Hirsthmann antenna key. Tool kit is complete in it's original canvas bag. A stack of maintenance records for the car and a car cover are included. I acquired the vehicle for my collection with the original paint that was badly faded. Condition and pedigree of the vehicle demanded a recent (6 mos.ago) premium moldings off complete repaint of the exterior surfaces ($4800). If you are a seasoned collector or just looking for that one special car to drive on special occasions or daily, this model should be on your list as it just does everything right. I am 15 miles from Newark (EWR) Airport and will provide ground transportation for "fly and buy" buyers. Questions? call the owner @ 908 872 7356 |

SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
13-year-old boy swipes dad's Mercedes, drives across Europe
Wed, 16 Jan 2013After an argument with his adoptive parents that resulted in them taking away his mobile phone, an angry 13-year-old boy ran away from his home in Italy and headed straight to Poland to meet his biological sister. But instead of taking the train or hitching a ride, like most on the run, the young man (an accomplished go-kart racer and car enthusiast) grabbed the keys to his father's Mercedes-Benz and jumped behind the wheel for an impromptu road trip.
With less than 200 euros (about $270) in his wallet and a passport in his pocket, the youngster managed to put more than 500 miles between himself and his distraught parents, crossing two international borders in the process, before German police nabbed him just shy of the Polish border. According to reports, the vehicle was tracked - it wasn't his driving that alerted authorities to his location.
Reunited with his mother and father, who traveled to Germany to retrieve both their son and the vehicle, the young man apologized and acknowledged his error. As a result of his actions, social workers will increase checks on the family and we can be sure his parents are now hiding the keys.
Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG spied in Sweden
Wed, 16 Jan 2013We've spotted the all-new Mercedes-Benz GLA testing a couple times in recent months in getting closer to production form and shedding camouflage, but now it looks like we're see our first look at the AMG version of this compact crossover. The low ride height might trick some into thinking that we're just seeing the already-confirmed A45 AMG out testing, but the unique beltline, rear doors and side windows confirm this is some version of the GLA-Class.
What makes us so confident that this is the AMG model? Well, for starters, this prototype has beefier brakes with cross-drilled front and rear rotors and bigger front calipers, but it also sports dual exhaust outlets poking through the rear fascia and a suspension that has been lowered considerably. Our spy shooters said that this car's exhaust note made it almost certainly an AMG model.
Just to be clear, the GLA AMG will not be powered by a 4.5-liter engine. The closely related A45 AMG will carry the "45" in its name to celebrate the first 45 years of AMG, and our sources seem to indicate the AMG version of the GLA will do the same. We're expecting this sporty crossover to produce as much as 350 horsepower from its AMG-tuned four-cylinder engine, and like the all-new E63 AMG, it could very well come standard with 4Matic all-wheel drive.
