You are looking at a 1997 Mercedes Benz S420 sedan.
The Good: 4.2L V8 engine with automatic transmission power windows assisted door and trunk closing double-pane glass in all the doors Lorinser (replica) 18" wheels with BRAND NEW TIRES, ONLY WEEKS OLD! Also included, set of 4 original 16" aluminum wheels with tires Heated leather seats with power adjustment, The interior is in great shape with NO RIPS, but does need cleaning Air conditioning (worked last summer but haven't checked this year, no guarantees) Power mirrors Cruise control Remote rear seat headrests Rear park-distance warning system Front clear marker lights. Original lights are also included Blacked-out roof (there's water on it in the picture) Power sun-roof The Entertainment System JVC touch-screen, detachable face, with 3.5" monitor, AM/FM/CD/DVD/MP3/USB w iPod control and wireless remote and Bluetooth (The JVC system plays through the original BOSE speakers and whatever amplifiers are original to the car) Digital television receiver (channels subject to reception) with remote control with front glass mounted antennas with secondary remotely mountable antennas. Auxiliary video/audio input panel below glove box (for video playback or video game connection) Both front visors have 7" color monitors with wireless remote controls The rear passenger vanity mirrors have been replaced with 3.5" color monitors. All the monitors display the same images. They play video from DVD's and they also display song lists when playing CD's iPod or USB music. There is also a front-mounted video camera located in the upper right corner of the windshield that plays through the monitors when the AUX/AUDIO is input is selected Power antenna 12" sub-woofer (installed by the previous owner. It is only connected to the original Mercedes amplifier) ***THE SATELLITE RADIO PICTURED IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE*** The Bad The body is showing its age. There are a few dents and dings as well as rust bubbles in the corners of the wheels, near the tail-lights, and under some of the trim. The car needs paint The hood has been replaced and the paint is faded with many stone chips, some large. There is a scratch in the drivers door window that runs from the bottom, almost to the top in the center of the glass The front windshield has 2 cracks about 6-8" long in the extreme bottom right corner (not in the line of vision) The car has wipers on the headlights but I'm not sure if they work I just had brand new tires put on the and they didn't balance them properly so now the car shakes at 80k/h. I had it back to the shop but it's not much better and I haven't had time to bother with it. The power door locks work only sometimes Just to clarify, this is a 17-year-old car with over 336000km's on it. I am being as brutally honest as I can describing this car. It has never let me down in the 2.5 years I've owned it. I put a new power steering pump and oil pan gasket on it when I got it and haven't touched it since. I drive it every day to and from work and it runs relatively good considering its age, with no substantial leaks . The price I'm selling this car for would pay for the tires and the stereo, and you basically get the rest of the car for free. The car is located north of Toronto and is sold as-is with no warranties implied or stated. I try to disclose as much info as I can and urge all bidders to ask any questions they may have. I take Paypal or cash when the car is picked-up. I am also selling the car locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time Thanks for looking |

Mercedes Concept GLA45 AMG is ready to run
Wed, 20 Nov 2013This is the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA45 AMG, and what we mean by that is, "This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG." Mercedes has just unveiled the liveried 'concept' at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, giving potential customers a very good look at the newest lunatic in the AMG asylum - a 355-horsepower, 332-pound-foot crossover that uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the CLA45 AMG and Europe's A45 AMG.
Joined with a seven-speed, AMG Speedshift dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, Mercedes promises a sub-five-second run to 60 miles per hour. That's not just quick for a crossover, that's quick full stop.
That sleek, lifted body has also been tweaked by the minds at AMG's Affalterbach facility. A new rear spoiler, side sills and front clip are the primary aerodynamic tweaks. Aesthetically, AMG has fitted the requisite "Turbo" badges, gloss-black accents (including exhaust tips and roof rails) and a set of 21-inch, AMG-spec alloy wheels to round out the overall package. Based on the spy shots we've seen, expect slightly toned down aerodynamics when the GLA45 AMG arrives in showrooms.
Mercedes-Benz releases stunning first images of 2014 S-Class
Mon, 18 Mar 2013
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, designated W222, is one of the most highly anticipated debuts of its model year. Every generation of the flagship sedan has broken new ground in technology and innovation for the entire industry, and the German automaker appears determined to raise the bar much further with its latest arrival as it promises to deliver "the best automobile in the world." Mercedes-Benz has just released nearly two dozen interior images of the new sedan, showing off style in design, craftsmanship in execution and pioneering advancements in technology.
Unlike all previous generations - the first S-Class officially arrived in 1972 - the 2014 model completely discards a traditional instrument cluster and replaces it with two high-resolution color displays in 8:3 format with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches (the outgoing model's gauges were a mix of digital and analog). The left unit displays traditional analog gauges (digitally, of course) while the right unit is reserved for infotainment and comfort settings with the automaker's all-new mBrace2 - a cloud-based entertainment and information delivery system that is rolling out this year.
2017 Aston Marin Lagonda could live on Mercedes M-Class platform
Tue, 29 Oct 2013A few weeks ago, we brought you news from the launch of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante that the British brand, which is formally known as Aston Martin Lagonda, was still planning on going ahead with a Lagonda-badged crossover. Now comes word that that vehicle could very well be based on a Mercedes-Benz M-Class.
When the first Lagonda Concept debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, it sat on a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class platform, some four years before Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG deal was inked. And with that partnership, which will see Aston Martin gain access to AMG electrics and "bespoke, V8 powertrains," the opportunities for platform sharing are many.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, the boss of Aston Martin, told the UK's AutoCar, "I look at what Porsche is doing with the 911 as its core business and then it is able to do models like the Cayenne based on the Volkswagen Touareg. It is good business." We've said many times that we'll tolerate exotic CUVs and SUVs if it means keeping the beloved core models alive, which has been the case with Porsche. We see no reason Aston Martin wouldn't be able to do the same.
