Location:

Bridgewater, Massachusetts, United States

Up for sale this week is my own personal 1998 Mercedes Benz SLK 230 Kompressor.  This car only has 90,400 miles on it.... a true head turner!   I will do my utmost best to describe anything and everything , honestly and to the best of my ability.  However i am not a mechanic and i will not be held responsible for any missed details.  i full encourage any buyer to come and look at car, test drive it, view inside and out before buying.  With that said, i hope my FEEDBACK for 10 years on this site says alot.....  lets get to it!

Exterior:  I would give the exterior a 7 out of 10. The exterior is a sexy metalic blue, i belive it to be the original color and is in good condition.  There are some signs of re paint/overspray in a few sm spots. and it appears that maybe the front bumper was replaced at one time.  The nose is a little off where the lights meet up to the bumper and the lights themselves are 1 piece aftermarket. there are no fog lights on this car.  And there is a small molding missing on the drivers side lower front fender (prob 25$ at the dealership) The car could deff use a good buff and wetsand to get some minor imperfections out, but overall it is in great condition. please see all photos

Rims: This car came with stock 16" rims, i do not have them anymore, i did purchase the rims you see now about 3 months ago witch are 18" rims with 40' low profile tires.  3 of the tires are used and still have about 85% tread left, one of the tires is brand new is only 1 month old.  The rims are flawless overall id give them a 9 out of 10.

Interior: i would give the interior a 8 out of 10.  This is the original black on black interior.   The dash is great, the seats are great (very small tear starting in the center of drivers seat, about 1/2 inch) all power options work on the car, the carpets are clean, there is no other stains or smells (non smoker). Some of the center console finish is pealing a little... the car has an aftermarket cd player installed.

Engine/other: Id give this engine a 8 out of 10.  It has never done me wrong in the year ive owned it.  This is the reliable 4 cyl supercharged, rear wheel driven engine. Does not leak or burn anything, i have done mobile 1 oil changes since ive owned it.  all fluids are up to par and i just had an oil change on it last month.  The ABS light is on, and has been on since i owned it.  the brakes work flawless, so i saw no need to bring it to dealership, also the ASR light is on, (wich has a switch) i have been told that maybe the 2 of them co- inside with eachother.  i have no idea what the ASR light does?? 

Convertible Roof:  The roof works great on this car and has never failed me.  Every once in a while if you drive over a good size bump, the roof light will blink and you will hear a few beeps, then it goes away. Thats the only issue ive ever had.

I believe im the second or 3rd owner on the car, i bought it out of state so i do not know the history, and because i told you about the front bumper, it may or may not have been in a minor accident. i see no damage under the hood or under the car. This car does have a CLEAN TITLE ...please use your own judgment or purchase your own vehicle history report.  i can only tell you what i know since ive owned it.   i am an honest man who has sold everything from antiques to cars from video games to sports memorbilia.... i try my best to decribe it all, so there are no surprises and my customer is truly happy.  and hopefully my Feedback speaks volume.

The car is located in Bridgewater, MA 02324 if you need a shipping quote.  I require a 500$ paypal deposit within 24 hours of auction close, you then have 5 days to pay the remaining balance in full (thru paypal or cash in hand) and 7 days from end of auction to remove the car from my property.  If you cannot do any of this, please do not bid.  These terms are very important.  It is the buyers Responsibility to remove car by any means at there cost.  If car needs to be loaded onto a carrier i can help with that.  Also, if you live out of state and would like to fly in and pick car up and drive it home, i can assist with that as well (for a fee). My local airport is LOGAN airport in boston ma.  I am about 22 mins south of Boston. There is NO warranty expressed or implied on this car, like all used private party cars, you are buying the vehicle as is.  if you have any questions please ask BEFORE auction ends, not after.  thank you, as always NO RESERVE!   good luck!

2014 Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid for fat cats frugal with fuel

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Judging by how long we waited to get a clear shot of the Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid, you'd have thought hybrid cars were only driven by Terminators and that the technology arrived only 48 hours ago through a wormhole in the Mercedes stand. The newest member of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class hybrid band - joining the S400 Hybrid and S350 BlueTEC Hybrid, it hits notes like a 5.5-second sprint from standstill to 62 miles per hour, up to 19 miles of ion-powered running and uses three liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers in Europe (78.41 mpg US, but our mpg test cycle is different than their mpg test cycle).
The lump up front is a turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6, the lump in back - note the reduction in trunk space - is a pack of lithium-ion batteries that juice an 80-kilowatt electric motor. Other than having four drive options for controlling electric drive and battery usage, it's all S-Class all the time, with leather-covered everything and those mountainous thrones that bring to mind words like "Archduke" and "Papal."
You'll find our hard-earned gallery from the Frankfurt Motor Show floor above, and more words of information in the press release below.

Maybach lost upwards of $500k on each vehicle sold

Wed, 08 Feb 2012

Daimler is shuttering Maybach in 2013 after seven years of production. In that time, the company's ultra-ultra-luxury arm managed to sell just 3,000 units, and CAR reports Daimler lost somewhere around $500,000 on each and every one of them.
Even with a ludicrous price tag of over $370,000 for an "entry" Maybach 57, the brand couldn't quite recoup the dizzying $1.33 billion Daimler poured into it since its (re)inception. Rumors ignited over a possible tie up with Aston Martin that would have resulted in a range of new and attractive models, but Daimler has instead decided to snuff out Maybach altogether.
We can hardly blame them.

How could a lifted Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG be more awesome? Add an axle

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

We are fully confident in saying that this will be the most amazing thing you see all day. First of all, it's a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen - in AMG spec, no less. And it's being shown off in high-definition video glory, blasting through the desert, jumping over sand dunes, and generally being awesome. But here's the kicker: It has six wheels. Three axles. And they're all driven. Holy $%!#.
Under the hood is AMG's usual 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, and total output is rated at 536 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. That's impressive and all, but do keep in mind that the G63 6x6 weighs in at 8,322 pounds or, you know, the weight of two E-Class sedans. Combine that with its 18 inches of ground clearance, 37-inch tires and five locking differentials and you've got a vehicle capable of, well, everything you've ever imagined or will ever imagine for the rest of your life.
But the goodness doesn't stop once you open the doors. Oh, no. This thing is fit for a king - or a sheik, more appropriately - with ultimately luxurious seating for four. The rear bench seat has been removed in favor of two bucket seats with a fixed console in the middle, and the rear seats have been moved back beyond the usual B pillar to allow for more legroom.
