This is a vehicle that I had tried to auction last year for a friend. He has lowered the price and has asked me to relist it. It is an "M-110 6 cyl. 2.8 liter double overhead cam engine, carbureted Solex 4 A 1. Disc brakes, front and rear...4 owner history, confirmed, since new, always garaged. Paint original, except for cosmetic repaint to passenger side front door, result of minor injury. Ziebart ... with careless overspray on OEM muffler, rear axle mounted fuel pump, and rocker panels. All floors original, no rust in wheel wells, original trunk mat. clean underneath, tool roll, tire iron, bilstein jack, aged spare tire in place. All lights functional. Non working radio, shorted ground wire to manual antenna. A/C fan, clutch, and compressor functional, but not cooling and will require leak-down, dye test, and overhaul. Heater working, passenger side core partially seized. Very minor pitting of windshield, no rainbows or chips, excellent original Sekurit glass all around. Rubber, good for age, newer hood insulation mat, rotted trunk lid seal. Roll down window channels, tight, in need of cleaning and lubrication. Instrument cluster gauges functional except for clock. Center section of exhaust system very rusty, but intact, with no evidence of holes or noise." This information was quoted from a letter to the car owner from a gentlemen who looked at the car in Nov. 2012. The comments are entirely his own. The owner shared this letter with me as he was very impressed by the man's knowledge of the vehicle and the information needs to be attributed to him and not the owner.

Seat covers were custom made for the vehicle and are shearling, in very good condition. The provenance of the vehicle is documented. It was formerly owned by Margaret Truman, daughter of President Harry S. Truman. She was concert singer, actress, radio and TV personality and mystery writer. Born Feb. 17, 1924, died at age 83.

All of the owners manuals are present. Please contact the owner Joe at 765 730 5939 or 765 747 9888 if questions. Any work done on the car since Joe has owned it have been done at Motor Imports in Muncie, IN and all service records are available.

(I know nothing about cars except how to drive them. My apologies if pertinent information is lacking. This listing is on behalf of a friend who would be glad to answer any questions.)

Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is Affalterbach's first big leap into the little pond

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The recent history of AMG is turning out amped-up versions of Mercedes-Benz offerings that would hardly ever be mistaken for their sedate counterparts. Sure, you'd need to pay attention to pick a G-Class from the G63 AMG, but dual side-pipes are a quick giveaway. The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is not only a new era in Affalterbach's attention on smaller cars, it is probably also the most subtle transformation we can think of in the line-up.
Low and chunky enough in standard guise to make a sporting impression, the aesthetic makeover is confined to black trim around the lower rim of the hatch, black wheels with red brake calipers and a single, rectangular exhaust tip on either side of the diffuser. It's easier to make a positive ID inside, where the flat-bottomed steering wheel, red seatbelts and red-rimmed details say, "You know what I am..."
If the car is running, though, it won't take but a second. The 2.0-liter turbo spitting 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet will grumble through a sport exhaust at idle, and bellow through the same on it's way to a 0-60 time of less than 4.5 seconds. And if you need something that looks a little harder - and you want those quad pipes - then the A45 AMG Edition 1 is the treasure you seek. There's a press release below for all the info you'll need until the hot hatch goes on sale in Germany later this year, and photos for the rest of us while we wait to find out if we'll get a chance to buy it.
