w/Trailer Hitch-Solid Dependable Stylish Ride
the W123 Series Mercedes built from 1979-1985
is the last over-engineered, most durable car they've ever made
This wagon runs & drives terrific. Transmission shifts smoothly and is tight.
Previous owner replaced the stock air filter with a free-flowing K&N performance filter unit. Other than that, the car is stock.
Car was originally white, but repainted before I took ownership.
A couple of paint nicks here and there, but overall very straight and a quality, high gloss paint job. The only rust I've seen is on driver's door
at bottom corner and it was addressed during the repaint. Original Blaupunkt radio/cassette works as well as does the auto up/down external radio antenna.
The Roof rack has the chrome cross-bars often missing and go for $500 used. Recent Service includes-brake work, with both rear calipers and brake lines replaced, oil & filter change, fuel filter(s) changed, new glove box door, new engine compartment sound insulation pad. The wagons came standard with hydraulic rear suspension referred to as SLS.
The SLS works great and soaks up the bumps but still rides comfortably.
Original owner's manual in excellent condition.
The car is striking in this unique color.
The not-so great?-interior could use some TLC. Dash has the usual cracks, but dash covers are only $100
Seats, carpet, etc I'd give a 6 out of 10. Left hand hood spring loose, but hood stays up fine in vertical position.
If you're looking for a solid classic with modern safety features that rides smooth as silk, and don't mind putting in a little TLC on interior, this car is a great car for you.
As I said, there are no known mechanical issues but it is a 29 year old vehicle and as so, is sold as-is with no warranty.
I encourage interested parties to see & drive the car in person.
Bidders with less than 5 on feedback score need to email me first before bidding.
This car was an extra play car/driving restoration project that now has to go due to divorce.
It is priced to sell, with No Reserve.
Please see my feedback and bid with confidence.

Mercedes Concept GLA45 AMG is ready to run
Wed, 20 Nov 2013This is the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA45 AMG, and what we mean by that is, "This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG." Mercedes has just unveiled the liveried 'concept' at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, giving potential customers a very good look at the newest lunatic in the AMG asylum - a 355-horsepower, 332-pound-foot crossover that uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the CLA45 AMG and Europe's A45 AMG.
Joined with a seven-speed, AMG Speedshift dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, Mercedes promises a sub-five-second run to 60 miles per hour. That's not just quick for a crossover, that's quick full stop.
That sleek, lifted body has also been tweaked by the minds at AMG's Affalterbach facility. A new rear spoiler, side sills and front clip are the primary aerodynamic tweaks. Aesthetically, AMG has fitted the requisite "Turbo" badges, gloss-black accents (including exhaust tips and roof rails) and a set of 21-inch, AMG-spec alloy wheels to round out the overall package. Based on the spy shots we've seen, expect slightly toned down aerodynamics when the GLA45 AMG arrives in showrooms.
2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Make way for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, the most wonderfully preposterous car I have ever driven.
There is absolutely no reason why any two-seat roadster should be fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, but I sure am glad that Mercedes-Benz doesn't see things that way.
Drop into the leather-lined cockpit of this $213,145 provocateur, floor the accelerator pedal as I did over and over again, and 60 miles per hour falls in a traction-limited 3.9 seconds. Top speed has been electronically held to 186 mph (this apparently saves Gulfstream jet owners from embarrassment). Forget the SL550 and SL63 AMG, the valets will trip over themselves attending to the tycoon driving this thoroughbred - it's the real deal.
2013 Airstream Interstate 3500 EXT
Mon, 19 Aug 2013LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.
