1985 Mercedes 280SL 5 Speed. Less than 92,000 Miles.
This is the European high output double overhead cam 2.8 liter SL. Has more horsepower than the 3.8 V eight in a lighter, better handling package. Wider wheels and ground effects. It is very entertaining to drive in the mountains. Gets 23 to 25 mpg on ethanol free premium fuel. This is not like the big, heavy cruisers. The 280's are high revving and more agile due to the better weight distribution. Pros: Mechanically sound, less than 92k miles.All gauges work, including the clock. Does not leak any fluids. Exceptional handling. Excellent fuel economy for SL. Very rare. Dash has no cracks. NO RUST. Both tops. Interesting chapter in this vehicles early history - Car was manufactured in Germany and was exported to Bogota Colombia in 1985. Shipped to Texas a few months later. ??? Documentation included. Has been in Texas until I Bought it in 2008. Has original tool kit and unopened first aid kit. Also have set of U.S. Spec lights if you don't like the European look. Cons: Almost 30 years old, some items do show wear. Chrome on some wheels flaking, Drivers seat has rip. Paint is good but does have age that shows on close inspection, it does not show up well in the pictures. Two small tears in top.

Mercedes considering Audi Allroad rival
Fri, Jun 19 2015The Audi Allroad is something of an anomaly in the automotive world. Its competitors are limited to the recently released Volvo V60 Cross Country and perhaps the far cheaper Subaru Outback. The lifted premium wagon hasn't exactly done great for Audi, only selling a few hundred examples each month. Its best sales year was 2013, and even then, only 5,300 left US showrooms. Despite these limited prospects, word from Australia is that Mercedes-Benz is looking at launching its own competitor to the Allroad. "We are looking at every single niche, so we are studying this [Allroad] at the moment, but it is not confirmed," Matthias Luhrs, VP of sales and a member of the product management at MB, told Motoring.com.au. "We are looking obviously at C-Class and E-Class, but no confirmation at the moment." Fortunately, Luhrs recognizes that the Allroad isn't exactly a smash in the US. "In the US, no matter how long, short, high ... they don't like station wagons," Luhrs said, while adding that the Allroad concept is "developing quite successfully" in Italy and southern Europe. And for those hoping for a lifted C- or E-Class sedan, Luhrs also put the kibosh on that, saying, "We are not studying that." So what does this tell us? Well, it's still far from a sure thing that Mercedes will launch a lifted C-Class or E-Class Estate. And even if the company does go ahead with it, like the rest of the brand's long roofs (E-Class aside), don't expect to see it on US roads.
