I am selling my 1985 300TD Wagon. I have owned the vehicle for several years as a project car with the intention of converting to a two tank veggie system--which did not pan out. I got the wagon from a friend of mine who bought it with a Salvage title from Merrill Cars and Parts. The wagon will crank if persuaded, although the battery is quite old. The machine is not in museum condition the paint is showing its age and the rear hydraulic shocks need to be replaced or rebuilt. There is a leak in the hatchback that seeps into the carpet, I presume the glass pane is the issue although I haven't tracked it down. Interior is relatively clean (I included pictures of the ugly aspects, driver's visor/center column/dash cracks) Odometer shows 321,576 on original engine and transmission. Model is 123T, date of manufacture is March 1985 making this one of later machines Mercedes' made of this model. While this is not a stellar specimen, my asking price is substantially lower than the few I've seen listed on here. VIN WDBAB93C9FF047346 happy trails.
Known issues:
Battery should be replaced, although after being cranked it handles things okay...
Rear Shocks will need to be rebuilt at some point
Leak in back right corner of hatchback
All five tires are worn out
Passenger visor fell off
Driver's mirror fell out
Paint is in fair to average condition (see pictures of fading and blistered area)
Sun and age have killed the sound barrier underneath the hood
Unexpected Positives:
two spare AC compressors
extra fuel filters
smooth idle
extra seat- for middle row
third row of seats for seating up to seven
upper ball joints were replaced
new air filter
Manual moonroof works and does not leak
all windows are original with the exception of the windshield.

Mercedes goes boating again with G63 AMG-inspired Cigarette
Wed, 06 Feb 2013Cigarette Racing has another Mercedes-Benz AMG-themed boat headed out to sea. After The SLS AMG-inspired 46-foot Rough Rider in 2010 and the C63 AMG Black Series-inspired 50-foot Marauder in 2012, this year's Miami Boat Show will introduce the 42-foot Huntress, theme provided by the G63 AMG.
The latest Cigarette homage is less overly racy than the ones before, befitting a watercraft modeled off a performance SUV, but don't let the looks fool: there are five Mercury Racing Verado 350SCi outboard engines, each one of them packing a supercharged inline six-cylinder with, natch, 350 horsepower. Those 1,750 horses will be good for 78 miles per hour when you've got some saltwater underneath you.
If you're in South Florida this week, Booth B-23 at the Miami Convention Center could be your best place to see it. Otherwise, like the 536-hp G63 AMG, it could be hard to catch. There's a press release with more information below.
Mercedes-Benz to build new ML coupe-crossover in Alabama in 2015
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Mercedes-Benz will expand its factory in Tuscaloosa, AL, to build the ML Coupe, a new crossover that will join its lineup in 2015. Mercedes will also ramp up production to build facelifted versions of the M-Class and GL-Class SUVs, lifting the factory's total production capacity to about 300,000 units annually in 2015. It made 185,000 vehicles in 2013. In addition to SUVs, the Tuscaloosa site also makes the C-Class sedan.
The plans come as part of Mercedes' strategy to capitalize on Americans' increasing demands for SUVs. The company said the SUV market was up 12 percent in first half of 2014, and expects it to grow at twice the rate of the regular market in 2015 and 2016.
"We are seeing climbing demand for SUVs." - Dieter Zetsche
Watch this perfectly nice Mercedes get crushed by a front-end loader
Mon, 25 Mar 2013In a world where the YouTube hoax continues to thrive, it's hard to know what to think of this little vid, but here are the facts as we know them: a coupe that looks like a first-generation Mercedes-Benz CLK gets crushed by a giant front-end loader. There you have it.
Our questions arise in the aftermath - we know industrial resource machinery is heavy, but the Benz gets squashed so flat we wonder if someone's trying to play a joke on us. We hear that the white coupe may have been the heavy-equipment operator's foreman's car, but who knows? The on-camera interview seems awfully conveniently placed, yes? See for yourself in the video below and then leave us your thoughts in Comments.
