This 1970 Mercedes Benz 280SL automatic with a new and very cold a/c system is my wife's car. She has thoroughly enjoyed it, especially driving around on warm summer evenings.

The beautiful condition is reflected by the very few miles on the odometer. She is not the original owner, so I can't verify the correct mileage, however, it appears to be accurate. Recently the SL has had new tires, brake lines and has just returned from the local car detailer. The complete a/c unit has been replaced and it works, unlike other SL's which have the original unit. The red paint is about 4 years old and shows extremely well. There are a couple of miniscule highway chips but no dents or door dings. Can't even get them to show up on the pics.

The black canvas top is relatively new with only one very small wear mark on the lower driver side caused from putting the top up and down into the top boot. Rear window is nice and clear with no yellowing. It does have a red Pagoda top that matches the body paint. She said it has a piece of chrome missing but I couldn't determine what the missing piece is after a close inspection. The leather interior is a dark and deep maroon which contrasts well with the exterior paint. No tears, rub marks or wear locations. A few months ago she had the valves adjusted, had a tune up which included an oil/filter change.

This 280SL has the larger 6 cylinder and is quite peppy. Not a rocket, but then it is driven casually around town. The engine bay is nice and clean with no evidence of oil or other fluid leaks. It is being sold because she moved up to an SL500 and this is now an extra vehicle for us. Note that Connecticut is a non title state for cars over 25 years of age. The previous owners clear signed off title will be provided as will a notarized bill of sale.

I will entertain reasonable offers as long as the buyer has the cash available to conclude the transaction. No low ball offers will be entertained. A Paypal deposit of $500 will be required immediately when sold. A wire transfer for the balance is preferable but if a bank check is sent for payment it will have to clear before the SL will be delivered.

This is a wonderful SL and continues to increase in value each year. Better investment than real estate.

Good luck in your offers and I will respond to all questions.

Mercedes CLA45 AMG Racing is ready for a spot on the grid

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Mercedes-Benz trotted out its CLA45 AMG-based racer at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We first showed you the sedan in the deluge of news and reveals that precedes most good auto shows, and were blown away by the car, formally known as the CLA45 AMG Racing Series.
We were strolling by the Mercedes stand, and figured we'd pop in and take a look at the new racer and its carbon-fiber body panels, gutted interior, and race-sourced aero parts. It's a looker, both as a road car and a track weapon. It's not clear what series the CLA45 AMG will qualify for, although it does seem like a shoe-in for the World Touring Car Championship. Let us know what you think of the CLA racer down in the comments. In the meantime, we've got a full gallery of live images up top, along with the stock images that were posted last week on the Mercedes-Benz Facebook page.

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."

Carlsson SLK 340 Judd is winged up for hill climb glory

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Carlsson has been expertly tuning Mercedes-Benz products for more than 20 years now, but we can't say as we remember the outfit turning out anything quite so racy as this SLK 340 Judd that it has brought along to the Geneva Motor Show this year.
This SLK is meant for competition, obviously, and Carlsson has already booked the car to race in several hill climb events in the E1 category. The purpose-built racer should have a fighting chance to do well in said races, with a shape vetted in wind tunnel testing for maximum downforce, the SLK uses a carbon-fiber bodyshell to help achieve a curb weight of just about 1,720 pounds.
The featherweight SLK's name comes from its 3.4-liter V8 engine, which churns out a wicked 610 horsepower to go with its 317 pound-feet of torque. A Hewland transmission with paddle shift operation manages all of the thrust.
