Here is the best of the 126 S-class Mercedes Benz cars.  The 300 SD is known for its durability and longevity along with its superb comfort and drivability.  Some owners claim to have over a million miles on these diesels.  But don't worry this SD is just getting started with only 179K miles.  It still sounds and performs like a new engine. Also it's transmission shifts like it is supposed to.  I can give a laundry list of new parts and improvements.  Please look at the pictures and you can see how the car presents itself: Like new and nearly perfect condition.  The professional paint and body-work have revealed a perfect reflective showroom condition. 

If you know these cars and have been waiting for a high-end and high quality 126 then you will not be disappointed with this vehicle.  You may know that it is rare when a pristine 126 comes on the market.  Others claim that their car is super-dooper but when you get down to the details they just don't measure up.  If you have a sharp eye you can find the faults if given enough pictures.  I wish to include enough pics to satisfy your scrutiny.  Also I I will be willing to answer all questions through the auction. 

I have gone to more maintenance and repair details than most anyone would toward a vehicle scheduled for sale.  Let me give a few: new rotors front and rear with pads, re-packed front wheel bearings and new seals, new flexible brake lines all 4, new premium tires (1500 miles), all new fuel filters (primary, secondary and cleaned tank screen), new fuel hose for injectors, new air filter, new oil filter with 8 qts. diesel oil, new AC compressor with charge, new hood pad,  new trunk seal after new paint, new interior leather and seat repair with custom dye applied to seats front and back as necessary, new window regulator slides as necessary, new 50/50 coolant after flush, new transmission filter with ATF, new power steering return hose and steering pump filter, new turbo oil return tube gromet and O-rings, new injector pump gasket (with the gromet and gasket the car shows no leaking), valve adjustment. 

As you may be able to imagine, even today, this car could be sitting proud in any Mercedes Benz Showroom.

In full disclosure note that the original Becker radio/cassett works but the right side either is not pluged in or may be defective.  Auto antenna works.  (since audio is sometimes personal I have left the original in place)

LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.

Zetsche's CEO tenure extended through 2016 at Daimler

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

There appear to be two takes on Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche having his contract extended for three more years, to 2016. A report in The Detroit News quotes the chairman of Daimler's supervisory board, Manfred Bischoff, talking up the stability at the top, "With today's extensions of the contracts of Dieter Zetsche and Thomas Weber, we are maintaining the important continuity at the top executive level." Bischoff also stated that that Zetsche has a plan to "further enhance Daimler's overall performance."
Over at Reuters, though, the three-year extension was seen as a lack of complete confidence in Zetsche's plans, since his contract was supposedly meant to be extended by five years. A spokesman said the board decided to extend executive contracts by only three years if the person was 60 or would turn 60 during the contract, but that was news to observers. Zetsche wants to make Mercedes-Benz the top selling luxury manufacturer globally by 2020, but has fallen to third place behind Audi and BMW. It hasn't held the top spot 2005, and investors judged it valued at half that of BMW at the end of 2012 once Daimler's truck business was subtracted.
Analysts cites the fact that Daimler stock hasn't bested its rivals but twice in twelve years, and that the company revised its profit target downward last year by nearly one billion euros, warning of stagnant earnings this year and will miss its original margin target for 2013.

Mercedes Makes A Mighty Little Sedan
We got overexcited when the W203 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan came out in 2001, calling it the "Baby Benz" when it really wasn't. We knew that, too, but our enthusiasm for a model more like the old 190 of the '80s was so strong that we were willing to stretch the first-gen C-Class to fit that mold. Today, the C-Class has done what all German premium cars do: grown in size. In this case, grown to satisfy the market intentions of the previous E-Class.
There was the tall A-Class sold from 1998 through 2010, but we never considered that a serious small Benz in the proper spirit, nor was it ever offered in the US. Regardless, we've been craving a smaller, premium, sexy sedan all the while.
