Mercedes-benz 79 Classic 300d Wvo Converted Bio-fuel Diesel Cali/az Car on 2040-cars
Mesa, Arizona, United States
|
Very Clean 2nd Owner 79 300d 157000 mi. Couple very small dents and surface scratches. Brand New Tires. Has all features working except Pwr antenna. Needs nothing for daily driver. Interior good shape no rips,tears or cracks. Rear seat back could use new padding but is very usable. Automated Heating control unit under hood is bypassed. Heat and AC work great. Just nitpicking everything so you have good understanding of cars shape. IF I had to compare it on a number system I would have to give the exterior a 9/10 and the interior about the same. All original ! Even has the sign still attached to the inside trunk lid, and have the original touch up paint canister (unopened) that came with it. Has been converted to run on WVO, and ran very well on it here in beautiful Mesa AZ. Has plug in heater unit and heat ex-changer that work great in our milder climate. Brake's, Rotors, Valve adjustments, New Glow Plugs all maintenance has been done and have receipts. 2nd Owner car that was bought from a 85 year old lady that brought it over on the boat in 1979, on a Mercedes-Benz sponsored trip. The car had been in Northern California, till I bought it and moved it to Phoenix Az. It has never seen snow,salt or even bad roads. Very Well Maintained by Mechanic. Wife retired bought new vehicle. A great car, we have loved for 8 yrs. Time to sell need room in garage!

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
Mercedes widens luxury sales gap on strong early CLA demand
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Mercedes-Benz CLA sales have been booming, with the Stuttgart-based manufacturer moving 2,300 of the sleek four-doors in its first week on sale. That is astonishing. Mercedes moved nearly twice as many CLAs (which start at $29,900) in one week than Jaguar, a brand that is on a very solid roll, sold in all of September. Ignoring the price differences between the Jag line and the CLA, that is still wildly impressive.
Mercedes has been pushing the CLA in television ads, using a shortened version of its Super Bowl spot, which starred William Dafoe, Usher and Kate Upton. "As the bargain entrance into the Mercedes portfolio, we weren't sure how luxury buyers would react," Kelly Blue Book auto analyst Alec Gutierrez told Bloomberg.
The CLA push was just part of MB's 6.7-percent increase in September sales, which were also helped along by a 17-percent jump in E-Class sales. That surge has allowed Mercedes to widen its 2013 sales lead over its rival, BMW, to 2,491 cars, according to Bloomberg. If CLA sales continue at this rate, we can only expect that margin to grow.
Race Recap: Singapore Grand Prix is about a safety car and submission
Mon, 23 Sep 2013The Singapore Formula One Grand Prix is the Monaco GP of the Orient - a weekend known more for its glamour and time-slot than on-track action, with a temporary circuit that punishes every mistake, usually terminally.
Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas got the best of Free Practice 1, opening the curtain on a possible resurgence of Silver Arrows performance. By the time qualifying was done, though, it was his teammate Nico Rosberg who lined up second on the grid, followed by Romain Grosjean with a beautiful performance in the Lotus, Mark Webber in the Infiniti Red Bull, and Hamilton all the way back in fifth. Behind them were Felipe Massa outqualifying Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button getting the McLaren into eighth, Daniel Ricciardo with another good Q3 effort to get into ninth, and the shocker of Esteban Gutiérrez getting his Sauber into the top ten for the first time this year.
At the front of the pack was Sebastian Vettel. Again. But he was only ahead of Rosberg by a single tenth of a second...
