 1991 Mercedes Benz 560SEL with only 60,000 miles.  The car is finished in Black Pearl Metallic with Gray soft leather upholstery.  It was purchased on 10/6/90 from Estate Motors, Golden's Bridge, NY.  The car has had one owner and ownership will be transferred with the original title.  It has been well cared for and very well preserved.  It is in excellent condition and is an extremely rare find with such low mileage.  This is the last year of the 560SEL, one of the most beautiful cars that Mercedes has ever made. 

The exterior of the car is in very good condition.  The paint is in great shape and holds a strong shine.  There is no rust anywhere on the car.  There are some scratches, dings, sap marks, etc, however, far less than you would expect on a car of this age; the most prominent of which is an indentation on the right side of the panel that holds the rear marker plate.  All glass, plastic and trim pieces are in very good shape and have no damage.  The chrome is in excellent condition.  The wheels are also in very good shape.

The interior of the car is in excellent condition.  The leather is in great shape and has no holes or tears in the upholstery.  The original color and finish are bright as a result of having been garaged.  The seats hold their original shape, spring and form.  The headliner sits perfectly with no sign of sag.  There are no cracks in the dash.  The wood is in very good condition, holding a deep bright color and only showing a couple of hairline surface cracks near the shift bezel.  A mobile phone had been installed, however, it has been removed and is in the trunk.  The car has not been smoked in and has no strange odors.  The carpets are free from any noticeable dirt or stains.

Mechanically, the car is in very good condition.  The engine is fast and extremely powerful.  The transmission shifts perfectly smooth.  The steering is tight and there are no strange noises or rattles.  There are no check engine, ABS, air bag etc. lights on.  All interior functions are working with the exception of the locks and the rear passenger window.  Power seats, heated seats (front and rear),  reclining rear seat, sunroof, climate etc. are all working.  Heat is hot and A/C is cold.  The locks do work manually but have lost power operation.  The left, rear window had trouble making it up the last time it was used and I have not used it since.  Also, the antenna will not fully extend, it goes up 2/3 of the way.  The owner's manual and other manuals are present.  The tires have plenty of tread on them.  Front brakes and wheel bearings are brand new.  Lastly, if the car sits for a period of time, the rear feels somewhat bouncy for the first several miles.  When it is used on a regular basis, it is not noticeable. 

These cars have a legendary reputation for their comfort, engineering and build quality.  This 560SEL is a very rare find being in very good condition, having extremely low miles and being the right color.  Most examples of this model have not been properly maintained and abused.  This car has been very well preserved and is in very impressive condition.  I have tried to describe the car as thoroughly and accurately as possible.  If you have any further questions, would like specific photos or would like to see the car, please let me know.

Mercedes-Benz intros long-wheelbase E-Class for China

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

Long-wheelbase sedans are a pretty hot commodity in China, and to keep up with the competition, Mercedes-Benz has introduced an extended version of the 2014 E-Class sedan at the Shanghai Motor Show. Audi, BMW, Volvo and even Cadillac offer extended versions of sedans specific to the Chinese market, and now the E-Class L, shown off in E400L guise, will give luxury sedan buyers in China yet another option.
Compared to the standard 2014 E-Class sedan, the new China-spec E-Class L has been stretched by 5.5 inches - all of which goes to the rear-seat passengers. According to an article on China View from earlier in the year, the market for chauffeur-driven cars is growing in the Asian nation, so automakers need long-wheelbase models like the E-Class L in order to fully compete. As for what powers this stretched E-Class, it's available in three models: the diesel E260L, the V6-powered E300L and the E400 Hybrid.
The redesigned E-Class and the all-new A-Class are just the first of 20 new Mercedes-Benz products that will be introduced into the Chinese auto market by 2015. Scroll down for the full press release on long-wheelbase E.

Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA gets official ahead of Shanghai

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Mercedes-Benz has something special planned for the Shanghai Motor Show - a new CUV concept that we first saw when it leaked on the internet yesterday. The GLA Concept compact crossover will hit the show stand with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive, and likely previews a new production model that we've already spotted testing.
That's not news, but the laser-based headlamps with video-projecting capability certainly are. Mercedes-Benz says the array can project any image or video onto a screen, which is handy since there are a pair of HD cameras mounted to the roof rack. The cameras can be removed and taken with you on all sorts of adventures. The lamps also feature a visible cooling system comprised of a series of fans, and the system helps give the headlights their "sparkle" effect.
Step indoors and the GLA offers up the interior of a high-quality crossover, complete with contrasting leather and plenty of aluminum. The automaker says the cabin was inspired by saddle craftsmanship with "more than 65 feet of hand-stitched seams to hold the raw edges of the leather together."

2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineup shows its freshened face

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Mercedes-Benz showed us its redesigned 2014 E-Class more than a month ago, but the Detroit Auto Show finally gave us a chance to see the full family of mid-size luxury cars and wagons in the flesh. Dieter Zetsche introduced the cars, including sedan, coupe, convertible and station wagon, on stage showing the stylish new design direction.
The wagon and sedan versions (shown as the E400 Hybrid above) will go on sale this spring, while the coupe and cabriolet will hit showrooms over the summer. Check our new gallery of live shots for the entire 2014 E-Class lineup, as well as the previously released press release below.
