 Up for your consideration is an very-good to excellent condition 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL.  This vehicle is being offered by its second owners.  They purchased it from a certified pre-owned Mercedes-Benz dealer late in the summer of 1998.  A cherished daily driver, the second owner maintained this car very, very well.  All service history is documented with a stack of service receipts totaling nearly $25,000 over the last 15+ years.   All oil changes,  maintenance and repairs were done by certified Mercedes-Benz technicians.   In 2011, the second owner passed away and this vehicle was put in to a climate-controlled storage facility, where it was properly looked after.  The battery was maintained, fuel was stabilized and it was  regularly started and run to maintain the vehicle's integrity. The car's exterior and interior were also periodically cleaned and refurbished as necessary.  In January of this year, storage of this vehicle became no longer available and the family of the second owner has decided to sell it.  The 1991 Mercedes 560 SEL was the last of the 126-series chassis.  It represented luxury at its finest in 1991 and this behemoth represents perhaps the last of the great "touring" cars produced by Mercedes-Benz.  Aesthetically, the design is pure, classic Mercedes-Benz.  These models are quickly appreciating on this basis and this particular car provides and excellent opportunity to own a classic.   Technically, the performance of the 560 could be described as smooth, powerful, and quiet.  As a fully-optioned vehicle in 1991 this car features adjustable front and rear power seats,  power telescopic steering wheel, sun-roof,  two-way heated front and rear seats, power self-leveling hydraulic shocks,  Becker audio system with a 10-disc CD changer mounted in the trunk.  Power windows and locks.  Rear passenger reading lamps.  This is the ultimate car for long-trips!  All features appear to work on this vehicle, including the power antenna.  The air-conditioning and climate control systems are also working quite well.  The current Toyo tires have approximately  7,000 miles on them.  Brakes function well with anti-lock system fully functional. Self-leveling hydraulic suspension also full engages when gear selector is changed from "Park" to "Drive" and vice-versa.    Body-wise the car is very good.  The original paint is good, but may benefit from an intense buff and wax to really bring out the shine.   Chrome is excellent.  Panels and all apertures are tight.  Body has a few minor "dings" commensurate with he age of the car and use. Nothing major here.   The only rust is two small spots where the front bumper attaches to the body on each side. This is not a serious issue but it should be noted.   All power locks are properly aligned, lubricated and central locking system is operational.  The interior is very good, with minor creasing and some surface cracks on the diver and front passenger seats and central arm rest.  The rear passenger seats are in excellent condition.   All the hides are in supple condition with no splits, or deep fissures requiring repair.  Carpet pile is deep and and in good shape with no serious stains or wear.  The car rides beautifully, with full power and good braking.  Transmission shifts smoothly and quietly.  The vehicle is sold "as-is", "where is".  No warranty or guarantees offered or implied.  Car has a clear title.  Taxes, delivery, registration, and title are the responsibility of the buyer.  A $500 deposit is due with 48-hours of the winning bid or offer.  We expect the car to be paid for in total in 7 calendar days after that time, unless alternate arrangements have been made. We will assist in shipping but all arrangements are at the buyer's expense.  We will not transfer title until purchase is paid in full.  Wire transfer, certified check only.  All funds must be in US-Dollars.  Please do not offer any trades.  Seller reserves the right to end this auction early as this car is being offered for sale locally.  Car can be seen and driven by appointment only.  Feel free to order an inspection PRIOR to your bid or offer.  This is not a contingent sale.  All sales final. I will be happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability in a timely manner.  I can take further photos if you require and may post more if it ever stops snowing!  All reasonable offers considered. Clean CARFAX report is available.

Mercedes spotted testing new S-Class cabrio in the snow

Wed, Feb 25 2015

A fullsize luxury convertible is a rare species. There's the Bentley Continental GTC, maybe the Aston Martin DB9 or Vanquish Volante and the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible if you won't need those rear seats too often, but that's about it. The segment seems to be expanding, though, with the imminent arrival of the drop-head version of the Rolls-Royce Wraith and the new challenger you see here. Spied undergoing winter testing in Sweden, this prototype for the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet is wearing barely any camouflage or body cladding whatsoever. In all likelihood that's largely because it's essentially the S-Class Coupe we already know, but with a folding fabric roof: Mercedes typically keeps the origami tin-tops to two-seaters like the SL and SLK. When the new S-Class cabrio is ready to launch – probably sometime between now and the summer – it'll join an expanding array of convertible Benzes that already includes the aforementioned SL and SLK and the E-Class Cabriolet, and will soon adopt the AMG GT roadster as well.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
