This is a fun car to drive and it gets noticed everywhere it goes. I have owned it for 13 years and it has had only 2 previous owners. This 1967 230SL has very low mileage, 42,700 miles, and it has always been garaged here in the state of NH. The mileage is low partly because the 2nd owner had stored it for 12 years, until I bought it in 2000. I have put on less than 5000 miles. It has a Six Cylinder Engine and a Standard Shift 4-Speed Transmission. The color is the Mercedes Benz Orient Red, and it was repainted back in the 1980s with the original color. Paint is still nice. Chrome is ok too. Interior is saddle brown in color and the seats are covered with the indestructible MB Tex vinyl. Seats, rugs, dash, glass, etc. are all in MINT condition. I have maintained the car and here is a list of new parts that I have installed during my ownership: power steering pump, steering stabilizer, steering linkage bushings, inner and outer tie-rods, water pump and hoses, master cylinder re-built, front brakes, fuel pump, new fuel sending unit, stainless steel exhaust system, plug wires, steering box, high pressure power steering hose, all new belts, new Michelin tires, clutch cylinder sleeve, front brake calipers, all rubber brake lines, fuel tank, Nardi steering wheel, and speedometer cable. The car runs awesome. Removable hardtop comes off to reveal the canvas convertible top that is about 20 years old. I can see 2 dime size worn spots on the rag top, but since it is never driven in the rain, I have not replaced it. Other than the rag top, the only other flaw is the speedometer, when the car warms up, the needle "bounces" up and down. Tried to fix it but was unsuccessful. The 4 new Michelins have less than a thousand miles on them. I am available to answer any questions JIM 603-401-9236. Wonderful car. Serious bidders only, please. The car will be sold with a NH Bill of Sale. NH did not require a TITLE on a car this old, but I do have the current registration which I am happy to provide a copy of. Good Luck bidding. This is a NO RESERVE auction.

Mercedes Sprinter updated to take on Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster
Mon, 29 Apr 2013By the end of this year, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter will be the second-oldest nameplate in its segment here in the States, but with hot new competition waiting in the wings, Mercedes-Benz is giving its hauler a freshened look and more equipment to stave off rivals. The Sprinter was a pioneer in bringing Euro-style delivery vans to North America, and it's inspired others to transplant their Continental offerings, with the all-new Ford Transit and Ram Promaster models launching shortly. It will also continue to do battle with lower-cost traditional competitors like the Chevrolet Express and Ford E-Series.
The big Sprinter will thus get a new look to go with more safety features and available technology. While the information released here technically covers the Euro-spec 2013 Sprinter (which goes on sale in September), the US market is expected to get the new Sprinter for the 2014 model year with many of the same features. Some of this new technology includes a Crosswind Assist feature as standard equipment and the availability of Collision Prevention Assist and Blind Spot Assist as optional safety measures - Mercedes-Benz says that all three are firsts for any van in the world. Also added to the updated Sprinter is a new 1.8-liter supercharged gasoline (or CNG) engine producing 156 horsepower, which will complement the line of diesel engines that carry over and help make the Sprinter the first cargo van to meet the upcoming Euro VI emissions standards. Additionally, a lower ride height is said to improve fuel economy and should improve handling while aiding ingress and egress for both people and cargo.
In terms of styling, the Sprinter's new face also looks more like the current line of Mercedes-Benz passenger cars. This includes a more upright grille along with changes to the hood, headlights and bumper that lend it a closer kinship to models like the CLS-Class and the updated E-Class. The Sprinter will offer both halogen and HID headlights, while the latter will get LED running lamps and offer Highbeam Assist. The images shown here only reveal the exterior from front angles, but it looks like few, if any, changes have been made to the rear of the van. Interior upgrades include a thicker steering wheel, a new shift lever and the latest in audio, navigation and entertainment systems. Scroll down for the official press release for the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.
Mercedes-AMG GT attacks Circuit of the Americas
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Mercedes-Benz is having a banner year with its Formula One team. Through 2014, the constructor has 454 championship points; ahead of its nearest competitor (Red Bull-Renault) by a margin of 182 tally marks. We're sure they can almost taste the champagne.
It's fitting then, and a little big cocky in a good way, that Mercedes has released a video of its newest sports car at an F1 venue. In this case, the car is the lovely Mercedes-AMG GT S, and the racetrack is Austin's Circuit of the Americas.
Having seen the official photo set and scratched the surface of the technical specifications earlier this week, we're excited to finally hear the thing run. As you might guess, the deployment of 503 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque from the twin-turbo V8 is a motivating experience. Crank up your volume, and hit that play button. (Oh, and Mercedes shot the thing in 4K, too, so those of you with expensive televisions/monitors should take heed to the settings.)
New Die Hard movie wrecked 132 cars in $11 million chase scene [w/video]
Sat, 16 Feb 2013It would seem the act of dying hard brings with it lots of wanton destruction of the four-wheeled kind. According to John Moore, director of A Good Day To Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis, There were 132 (cars) that could never be used again. Another 518 required a lot of work. And damn right there were some good cars there... That's the fun of it."
Please join us in one great big collective sigh. Done? Okay, let's continue.
"With Die Hard it's about how audacious the action is," says Moore. "So you have to drive over a Lamborghini. An actual one. And yes it hurts me. I'm a car fanatic." Yeah. Sounds like it hurt really bad... though not as bad as the final tally after all the carnage had been counted: "Someone showed me the numbers on the car chase and soup to nuts, you put it all together it was like an $11 million sequence."
