THIS MERCEDES RUNS AND
DRIVES VERY GOOD (M117 ENGINE)! THE ENGINE FIRES
RIGHT UP AND IT HAS A SMOOTH IDLE AND EXCELLENT POWER. THE AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND THE RIDE IS SOLID AND QUIET. THIS CAR IS
A PLEASURE TO DRIVE! I AM A PRIVATE OWNER AND
I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE MAY 2013. I HAVE SINCE TREATED THIS CAR WITH MUCH
CARE AND LOVE AS DID THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO MADE ME PROMISE I WOULD TAKE GOOD
CARE OF IT. NO EXPENSE HAS BEEN SPARED TO KEEP THIS CAR IN VERY GOOD
MECHANICAL CONDITION! ALL MECHANICAL
MAINTENANCE IS UP-TO-DATE! THIS 450SL HAS BEEN
TREATED TO MANY UPDATES AND/OR NEW PARTS IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. THIS
INCLUDES: NARDI STEERING WHEEL,NEW EXTERIOR PAINT, NEW SOFT TOP, NEW SEAT UPHOLSTERY, NEW
CARPET, NEW STEREO, AND NUMEROUS NEW MECHANICAL PARTS INCLUDING FUEL PUMP AND FILTER, NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW HIGHER VOLTAGE IGNITION COIL, NEW SHOCKS ALL AROUND, NEW SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES, NEW ROTOR AND DISTRIBUTOR CAP. ALL FLUIDS HAVE BEEN DRAINED, INCLUDING DIFFERENTIAL, TRANSMISSION, ENGINE, POWER STEERING, ANTIFREEZE AND BRAKE FLUIDS! THERE IS VERY LITTLE TO DO TO TURN THIS MACHINE INTO A COMPLETE RESTORATION. THE EXTERIOR LOOKS VERY
NICE WITH GLOSSY TAN PAINT, CHROME WHEELS, NICE CHROME TRIM, VERY GOOD BUMPERS,
A NEW BROWN SOFT TOP, A MATCHING TAN HARD TOP IN GOOD CONDITION WITH A COUPLE
OF SCRATCHES AROUND THE LIP , GOOD GLASS ALL AROUND, AND MORE! EXTERIOR BLEMISHES
ARE: RUST ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE IN SEVERAL SPOTS, SOME TAN PAINT
OVERSPRAY ON THE BODY IN SPOTS, A FEW SMALL AREAS OF BUBBLING RUST ON THE
BODY UNDER THE PAINT, BUBBLES ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE TOP OF HEADLIGHT , AND SOME
CHROME PITTING/BUBBLING ON THE TRUNK AREA. YOU CAN SEE MULTIPLE PICTURES
OF ALL THESE BLEMISHES BELOW THIS DESCRIPTION. YOU DON'T NOTICE THE BODY
RUST AND PAINT OVERSPRAY ISSUES UNLESS YOU ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE CAR.
OTHER THAN THE MENTIONED ISSUES, THE EXTERIOR LOOKS VERY NICE! THE INTERIOR LOOKS
EXCELLENT! IT HAS NEW SEAT UPHOLSTERY, NEW CARPET THROUGHOUT, AFTERMARKET STEREO, NICE DOOR PANELS, EXCELLENT CHROME TRIM,
AND MORE! THE TRUE MILEAGE IS UNKNOWN. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 76,989 MILES, BUT IT DOES NOT WORK. THE CAR HAS ABOUT 95,000 MILES ON IT ACCORDING TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER; I MYSELF ADDED ANOTHER 1500 MILES DURING MY OWNERSHIP. THE POWER WINDOWS, POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING, AUDIO SYSTEM, A/C BLOWER, A/C CONTROLS, POWER ANTENNA, AND DASH GAUGES ALL WORK GREAT! WHAT DOESN'T WORK IS: THE A/C ITSELF (BLOWS WARM AIR), CRUISE CONTROL, HAZARD LIGHTS, AND THE ANALOG CLOCK (WORKS SOMETIMES). TIRES WOULD NEED TO BE CHANGED IF TAKING LONG TRIPS. THE NY STATE INSPECTION
DOES NOT EXPIRE UNTIL MAY 2015. THE CAR WILL PASS STATE INSPECTION
ANYWHERE. BEFORE DELIVERY I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH THAT
STOPPED WORKING RECENTLY. I WILL REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE BEFORE DELIVERY. Please contact ROGER

Chicago Car2Go app reportedly hacked, some 100 cars missing
Wed, Apr 17 2019Car2Go launched in Chicago in the summer of 2018, with 400 Daimler cars rolled out on the Windy City streets soon after. But that big fleet just took a big hit: The car-sharing app has now reportedly been hacked, and some 100 cars have been stolen as a result. CBS Chicago is reporting that some of the missing cars have been used to commit crimes. It is yet unclear what the hacking has exactly enabled the perps to do, but the compromised app appears to have opened the doors and given the thieves free rein with easily stolen cars. Within Chicago, there is a 29 square mile area where the vehicles were supposed to be dropped off, but they haven't been limited from exiting that zone at any point. The Chicago Car2Go fleet started out with Smart ForTwo cars and bigger Mercedes-Benz CLA/GLA models; we can imagine the ForTwos are a touch slight for any ram raiding, but an escape car that can vanish in a crowd of other shared Smart cars seems handy for misuse. To address the matter, Car2Go froze its Chicago operations today, saying it is "neutralizing a fraud issue and working together with law enforcement." No personal or confidential user info is said to have been compromised. CBS Chicago's Brad Edwards tweeted today that 12 people have been taken into custody so far, with the story developing as we speak.
Daimler, BMW partnering up on wireless charging
Tue, Jul 15 2014Plug-in vehicle advocates can get all warm and fuzzy about two Germany heavyweight automakers getting together for the sake of wireless charging. That's because Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler and BMW will work together to speed up development of a wireless charging system. While not a ton of details were divulged, we can still rejoice. Daimler says the system will consist of an on-board coil and another coil that can be placed within the garage floor or someplace similarly stationary. The system will charge at 3.6 kilowatts and with 90 percent efficiency. No details were released about the system's price or when it would be available, but Daimler shouldn't wait too long, since other OEMs are already talking about their own wireless charging systems. Daimler obviously has some skin in the game here, since Mercedes-Benz will start sales of its S500 plug-in hybrid in September. That model, which was first shown off last August at the Frankfurt Auto Show, can go as far as 20 miles on electric power alone and will get fuel economy of about 84 miles per gallon equivalent. And it's easy to imagine an i3 or i8 driver getting a kick out of never needing to touch a cord. This spring, reports sprung up that fellow German automaker Volkswagen was preparing a wireless charging option for its electric vehicles as soon as 2017. You can check out Daimler's press release below. Wireless charging of electric drive and plug-in hybrid vehicles: PLUG IN HYBRID - unplugged One of the next steps on the way to perfect electric drive and plug-in hybrid vehicles is wireless charging. Daimler and BMW have now agreed on jointly developing and implementing one common technology. Wireless charging of the battery will make the handling of electric drive and plug-in hybrid vehicles even easier. Mercedes-Benz will commence fleet testing of this "unplugged" technology with the S 500 Plug in HYBRID soon, in order to develop a real S-Class solution in recharging the high voltage battery in terms of comfort and ease of operating in the near future. The system consists of two components: a secondary coil integrated into the under tray of the car and a primary coil integrated into a floor plate that can be placed on a garage floor for instance. Electrical energy is transmitted contact-free without the need for a cable, at a power rate of 3.6 kW and with a degree of efficiency of 90%.
