300td Turbo Diesel Wagon **no Reserve** on 2040-cars
Glendale, California, United States
Reluctantly selling the Benz. This car has been well cared for and doesn't require any repairs. It runs and drives and shifts beautifully. I drove one that was year old a few times and was very impressed by the obvious quality workmanship and engineering. Everything works as it should including the A/C, power windows/locks/antenna, self leveling suspension, sunroof etc.
The car was looked over by a Mercedes specialist and over the last couple years the transmission was rebuilt, the A/C compressor/receiver dryer/expansion valve and all seals changed, steering pump reseal, belts, hoses, fuel lines, vacuum system inspected and replaced valves hoses etc, the common drivers seat spring problem repaired, motor mounts, Trans mount, speedo cable, oem spec twin tube front shocks, rear SLS system inspected adjusted and accumulators changed, brake coolant sls diff fluids changed, various oil seals, serviced all window regulators, check strap drivers door, rear hatch shocks, sunroof lubed adjusted, tires, brakes. Minor and major services- valves and pump timing set, oil/fuel/sls/ps filters, alda and switchover valves adjustments, alternator, etc. The spare is new. Alpine system with lo-profile sub and correct spec speakers front and rear in factory mounts. The Alpine has Bluetooth audio and phone with full iPhone sync with external mic, on display contacts n call lists n playlists as well as USB charging and input control. Sounds really nice and balanced. Scuffs on drivers seat, two small 1.5 in tear in headliner, minor ding under rear bumper that Is hard to see.
The car is being sold as I am moving out of the country for work, i would take it with me but it's left hand drive. The car is a daily driver and gets 30 mpg at 70 mph and is smooth as glass without being spongy. offered locally. Email with any questions.

AMG-powered Aston Martins still years away
Mon, 16 Sep 2013After flirting for several years, Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin have finally tied the knot. Just don't expect to see any offspring to result from the union for at least three or four years.
This according to Auto Express, which spoke with Daimler chief Dr. Dieter Zetsche at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. AE reports that a new range of AMG-developed turbocharged V8s, transmissions and electrical components will make their way into the successors to the current V8 Vantage and DB9, but that these models are still a few years off.
Purists might balk at the thought of a Mercedes-powered Aston holding true to the brand's heritage. But while David Brown (for whom the DB range is named) may have steered clear of shoehorning in Detroit muscle into his cars, the entirety of the company's current range is powered by engines borrowing technology from Ford, and that arrangement seems to have worked well for Aston until now. And if you're still skeptical, look no further than Pagani and its AMG-sourced engines and you should have all the proof you need that the new relationship between Daimler and Aston could be a success.
Daimler employees can set email to auto-delete during vacation
Mon, 18 Aug 2014The Internet has shrunk the world in terms of the way people communicate by making it possible to send an email from Oslo and have it show up in Cleveland almost immediately. But that instant contact has wrecked the work/life balance for many. They get home from a long day at the office, yet they can never fully put their feet up and relax because another hour or more of checking and replying to emails awaits. However, German automotive giant Daimler is putting an end to that churn, at least while its employees are on vacation.
About 100,000 Daimler employees in Germany are eligible to opt-in to a new program called Mail on Holiday, according to The Atlantic. When the workers go on vacation, they can switch it on, and the service auto-deletes all of their incoming email. "Our employees should relax on holiday and not read work-related emails," said Wilfried Porth, board member for human resources, to The Financial Times as cited by The Atlantic.
Mail on Holiday puts a thumb on the scale of work/life balance in favor of a little more free time. The system means that Daimler employees shouldn't even be tempted to check their email on vacation because there's nothing there - and it also avoids them coming back from a relaxing holiday only to find a mailbox packed full of hundreds of unread messages. These days, people are absolutely obsessed with their work, often to the detriment of their health, not to mention spending time with their families and friends. On one hand, Mail on Holiday sounds like the sort of vacation breakthrough we'd need to truly unplug and unwind, but on the other hand, it makes our skin crawl just thinking about the lack of communication.

Does Alex Rodriguez' Mercedes dealership have a PR problem?
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Alex Rodriguez, in case you haven't heard, is seemingly the new Most Hated Man In Baseball, ostensibly replacing commissioner Bud Selig (for now). Rodriguez was slammed with a 211-game suspension due to his role in the MLB's latest steroid scandal in which "A-Roid," as fans have taken to calling the former superstar, was cited with steroid use and attempts to hide his involvement by "engaging in a course of conduct intended to obstruct and frustrate" the investigation, according to the MLB's official report.
Why is this on a car site, then? Because Rodriguez' name is attached Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz in League City, TX. An Ad Age report cites Mercedes-Benz USA in saying that A-Rod owns "about half'" of the dealership. Mercedes, for what it's worth, isn't going to any to any lengths to distance itself from its dealership or its controversial namesake, saying, "We never promoted the fact that A-Rod owned a dealership, so there's really nothing to 'distance' ourselves from. And since his activity is not illegal but rather prohibited by MLB, there's nothing actionable here."
With the scandal still a fresh piece of news and A-Rod's pending appeal, it's difficult to tell what sort of effect, if any, his name will have on the dealership's sales. Ad Age contacted the GM of Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz to get the dealership's view, but no calls were returned. According to Mercedes, any name change is up to Rodriguez and his partner(s) at the dealership. Somehow, though, we think A-Rod has other things to worry about beyond his dealership's name.
