 Up for auction is two Mercedes Benz 300Ds a 1990 and 1991. I bought the 90 Benz off eBay with the intent to fix up my 91. The 91 was my fathers car, who is a Diesel Tech, it was also my first car. I recently started driving it again last year so I could save on fuel cost commuting back and forth to work.  I am getting about 32mpg in stop and go traffic. It is an ugly car now and gets no respect on the road. It looked a lot better before it was parked in the middle of parking lot at my Dad's work with no shade for six years. I did not need to do much to get it driving again. I replaced the injection pump, delivery valve's O-rings, return lines, rubber supply fuel lines, I bypassed the fuel thermostat, gave it an oil change, a transmission flush, Master cylinder and two new tires. It drives ok, suspension and steering components are worn and the ac is in-op due to a bad clutch on the AC compressor.  I can't complain, it starts up every time, doesn't burn any oil and has never let me down. I just don't have the time anymore. I've been driving the 91 Benz for a year and still driving it daily.  I love it but I haven't been able to do anything to fix it up and I have too many other vehicles that need repair. Well that... and my Wife hates them and doesn't want to see them in the driveway anymore.

The 1990 Benz was bought here on ebay as a donor car for the 91. The previous owner purchased it at an insurance auction in Miami. The car was in a flood inside a parking garage sometime in 2002. The car was totaled out and has NO TITLE just a bill of sale. I haven't gone though the car very well. The car has 168,xxx miles on it. I serviced it, installed a new battery, drained all the fuel, and replaced the radiator and now it's running. It runs well but I did notice that the water pump leaks, the fan culch is in-op, the brakes need to be bled and the muffler is rusted out. I drove the 90 Benz around town for a little while and it has a lot more power the 91. It drives fine as long as you aren't sitting in heavy traffic. Because it was flooded, some of the accessories  aren't working like the windows, door locks, back head rests, cd player, blower motor, horn, and the power seats. Also the back passenger rear window is stuck down. It's perfect for parts or it can be fixed up with a little more time and effort.

The cars are sold as is. Local buyers preferred. Serious buyers only.

Mercedes previews sleek concept for CES

Wed, Dec 31 2014

It was over two months ago that we spotted a mysterious cloaked prototype said to belong to Mercedes, but we didn't know much about it at the time. And we still don't, but at least the German automaker has given us an idea of what to look forward to. Released on Facebook is this teaser image showing a silhouette of what appears to be that same concept car. The image is accompanied only by these few words: "The future will be bolder than you've ever imagined" and tagged by an accompanying #mbCES - which tells us only that, a) it's futuristic, which we already knew, and b) that it's coming to the CES, set to be held around a week from now in Las Vegas. The sleek one-box design appears to have some sort of appendage atop its roof – just the kind of periscope that might house, say, some cameras – leading to speculation that the idea behind this concept would be to showcase autonomous driving technology. We'd also be surprised if it weren't electric powered and – given the backdrop for its reveal – all the technology Daimler can throw at it. But one way or another, we'll be finding out soon, so watch this space. News Source: Mercedes-Benz via Facebook CES Mercedes-Benz Technology Concept Cars

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.

Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury SUV concept shown in leaked images

Fri, Apr 20 2018

Just days ago, we posted the interior teaser image Mercedes-Maybach released of its Ultimate Luxury concept due to be presented at the Beijing Motor Show. Now photos of the entire vehicle, inside and out, have leaked online courtesy of the manufacturer. Thanks to the concept's own microsite being live for a short while, we've gotten a good look of the concept. And it's not just a dressed-up GLS by any means, even if there might be a GLS platform underneath it all: It's a high-riding four door sedan with a clearly formed trunk instead of a traditional SUV shape. There's a big waterfall grille flanked by low, aggressive three-unit headlights, and the detailing is a combination of SUV cues and something a lot more luxurious. It's not easy to design a three-box sedan that's still recognizably an SUV. Inside, there's white leather and rose-gold detailing everywhere. But the big deal is the powertrain, which in the concept is all-electric. The all wheel drive is propelled with four electric motors, with a combined power output of 750 horsepower. The battery, said to be a flat underfloor design, is good for 80 kWh and an EPA range of over 200 miles, and the vehicle's top speed is limited to 250 km/h, or 155 mph. There's DC fast charging at up to 350kW, meaning that the range can be boosted by 60 miles in just five minutes, and induction charging is also available. All in all, the vehicle reminds us of the 2009 Lagonda Luxury Utility Vehicle concept, which was also created around a three-box sedan shape and also based on a Mercedes platform, GL-Class in that case. It did not yield a production version, but maybe the Vision Ultimate Luxury will.
