This is a very rare 1984 Mercedes Euro 300TD Turbo Diesel Station Wagon that I pulled out of a barn in New Hampshire a decade ago ,The correct vin # is WBD1231931F014848, Ebay would not allow the Euro vin #, the one in the description is for the parts car included in this auction, The European models came very basic, manual windows, manual sunroof and manual heater controls (no climate control) cloth seats and It did have the optional inside remote dash controlled headlights from the factory, the original headlights are long gone but the switch and everything else is still intact and I have seen the correct Euro lights here on Ebay, it also has a rare factory safety net and cargo cover and luggage bars for the roof rack and A/C, you can still see the "Partical filter" adapter required in Europe on the exhaust next to the turbo.You can see in the pics also the rare "red" reverse light on the drivers side for Euro models only and it also has the original spare tire, I did have this car running when I first bought it, every thing worked including the hydraulic rear suspension but the engine had a knock due to lack of oil. I started removing the engine but have run out of time, everything under the hood has been disconnected, the only thing holding the motor in now is the motor mounts and bell housing bolts, this is a VERY clean car, the only rust it has it what you see in the pics with the exception of a small hole on the drivers side rear floor, it has some small dents as can be seen in the pics and I have a collection of NOS Euro parts that goes with it also, Bumper ends Ect...Also included in this Auction is a 1983 parts car with a low miladge engine (the green station wagon) This car was my daily driver for many years, the previous owner had told me it had a rebuilt motor but had lost the documents, so as a mechanic for the past 30 years I installed a new timing chain, guides, seals, gaskets and injectors just for precaution, while doing so I found "heat tabs" on the motor which many rebuilders use for warranty purposes, unfortunately a few thousand miles later the transmission went and I discovered the frame was too rotted and decided to put this motor in the silver car but have run out of time and have no place to do it. the green car has 171000 on the clock and drove like it was new, the car still starts right up and runs great but only has reverse and has been sitting for many years, do not even think about fixing the green one as it has very rusty frame and floors and is no longer road worthy but does have a brand new stainless engine pipe and muffler and tail pipe, and it does have a very clean off white interior, Feel free to make me an offer on the Silver Euro wagon if you have a motor or the package but I will not sell the motor in the green car until the silver one has been sold, the motor in the green car is worth the starting bid of the two cars alone, these are special engines for the station wagons because they have the hydraulic pumps mounted on the head that operate the rear suspension that the sedans do not. I can Email more pics if you like, This auction is for the two cars as a package or I can remove the motor out of the green one for the high bidder if they like for the same price minuse the parts car, Please feel free to come look at these cars anytime before you bid, they are located at 2982 Route 9 Cold Spring NY 10516, 6 miles south of Exit 13 off Interstate 84 on U.S. Route 9 on the east side of the Hudson River, feel free to tex or call me at 845-490-8998, thanks Casey.... Make sure you click on the "see other items" link on the right hand side of this page to view other parts I have for sale on Ebay, International bidders please keep in mind both of these vehicles must be towed, they do not move under their own power so please keep this in mind for your shipper....

X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead
Thu, 14 Mar 2013BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.
Mercedes was set to sell version of Nissan Titan, now Infiniti might instead
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz Titan. Mercedes-Benz Frontier. Mercedes-Benz pickup truck. None of these things roll off the tongue particularly well. We'd like to think that's the reason Daimler opted to kill the idea of rebadged Titan and Frontier pickups from corporate ally Nissan. In reality, the execution before the Frankfurt Motor Show was due to more complicated issues.
Yes, Mercedes, byword for German luxury, style and quality, would have slapped a three-pointed star on a pair of Japanese pickup trucks that have failed to resonate with consumers in the world's largest truck market. That slapping of badges isn't much of an exaggeration, at least on the outside. According to the report from Road & Track, the truck's front clip would have been tweaked, but beyond that, the sheetmetal would have been unchanged. The interior would have received a more thorough going-over by the team at Mercedes, while the suspension and noise, vibration and harshness tuning would have also received significant attention.
The trucks would have ended up being sold through the light-commercial branch of Mercedes-Benz - the same folks that will happily sell you a Sprinter van - had the deal gone through. Issues arose, though, first with the engines. Mercedes wanted a wider range of powertrains to allow it to tune models for specific markets, while Nissan said it couldn't engineer the wide variety of engines that MB wanted to drop under the hood. For the smaller truck, meanwhile, MB was interested in a hybrid or plug-in variant, according to R&T, although this was also shot down by Nissan.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class interior caught in spy shots
Tue, 29 Jan 2013With the redesigned 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class getting closer to production, the camera-wielding crew over at Autospies somehow managed to get inside of the car to snap some detailed spy shots. As the prototypes continue to shed camouflage, it would appear that Mercedes-Benz is getting closer to unveiling the car, and with the Geneva and New York auto shows coming up, it could be sooner rather than later.
From what we can see of this car's interior, the overall look of the S-Class' cabin isn't a ground-breaking departure from the current car, but it has been completely redesigned with more advanced technology. The styling is now even more upscale with larger swaths of wood, more shapely door panels (without the built-in armrest cubbies) and the concept-like two-spoke steering wheel. The highlight of this car though is probably the two massive digital screens with one being used for driver information and the other used for navigation, audio and infotainment systems. One other detail we noticed about this car is that it was equipped with the new 360-degree camera that debuted on the new GL-Class and will also be used on the 2014 E-Class. We also know that the next-gen S-Class will be getting the new cloud-based MBrace2 infotainment system.
As for the exterior design, it looks like the next S-Class will carry a similar profile as the current car, but we can see through the camouflage that the new styling will fit in better with current Mercedes-Benz products. Up front, the grille is much larger is flanked by aggressive LED-trimmed headlights, while the rear view of the car shows us the LED brake light now at the top of the rear window, a more pointed trunk opening and a more squared-off rear fascia with exhaust outlets pushed to the corners.
