1960 Mercedez Benz 190sl Convertible on 2040-cars
Pompano Beach, Florida, United States
1960 MERCEDEZ BENZ 190 SL FIRST CLASSIC CAR EVER SOLD ON EBAY AS ANNOUNCED ON GOOD MORNING AMERICA! Entirely rust free and very original 1960 Mercedes Benz 190SL matching numbers, with its rebuilt Webber carburetors, ivory finish over a saddle leather interior. Mechanically sorted and with freshly rebuilt carburetors, rebuilt engine, transmission, fuel tank, new brakes and brake lines. It is believed to be all original except for the addition of a Fireball Electronic Ignition and retrofitted Audi starter. Its original numbers-matching engine starts right up without any smoke and idles consistently, maintaining excellent, even compression across all cylinders and pulling strongly under acceleration, thanks in part to its accurately tuned rebuilt Webber carburetors and a decade of detailed care and gentle use. The car’s original gearbox is smooth and correct, with effortless up and down shifts across all gears, and the car’s brakes and suspension all function as they should. The car’s body is straight with even and correct panel fits and gaps throughout. The windscreen and windscreen rubber is all original. Bumpers and major chrome parts have been re-chromed. The car’s undercarriage is entirely solid and correct, without rust and the car sits on its original color matched, hub-capped steel wheels.
The car’s interior is equally as clean, the saddle leather seats and interior panels showing only the most negligible of wear, the new complimentary tan carpets and the leather wrapped dash free of any significant wear or sun damage. However, the cars fuel gauge is aftermarket. The car retains its ivory steering wheel, as well as its clock and fully operating Becker Europa radio.
The car has been meticulously cared for and well preserved. The car was used solely as a garaged and well-taken-care-of weekend driver and event participant. Accordingly, the car remains in exceptional original condition, marred only by the most insignificant of imperfections, none of which
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an appreciating classic rust-free, cosmetically gorgeous and mechanically sound. Show quality examples have been selling routinely above $230,000, and as high as $269,500 at auction, prompting incredible market demand.
I am offering this car through Piano Outlet as a favor to a dear friend, this car played a part in our pianos being offered on Ebay. Sometime in 1999 I received a call from a friend of mine (Michael) who I met when he came in to buy a piano from me. He told me he bought a car off a web site called Ebay. At the time I was very involved with the classic car hobby and had been attending shows with different cars I would buy and and work on through the years. After spending some time at the some of the local cars shows he decided to get involved and made this spur of the moment purchase one night after a brief conversation with the previous owner. Shortly afterwards upon watching "Good Morning America" they mentioned his name in a story about the up and coming internet website "Ebay". Apparently his new toy was the first of it's kind to be sold online through Ebay. When the car arrived and was in the condition as advertised he was very happy and it was then I thought it would be a great experiment to see how my pianos would sell online through Ebay. The rest is history! I have since had thousands of pianos through my showroom being shipped all over the world. Russell Housen Piano Outlet |

France formally moves to ban Mercedes vehicles using contested refrigerant
Wed, 31 Jul 2013That didn't take long. Shortly after a French administrative court gave the French government a ten-day window to reconsider its ban on registrations of Mercedes-Benz A-, B- and CLA-Class cars using the prohibited R134a refrigerant, the government cited an EU directive to formalize banning the sale of the cars. The country's environmental ministry said that registrations "will remain forbidden in France as long as the company does not to conform to European regulations," meaning so long as they do not use the approved R1234yf refrigerant.
Daimler had won the administrative court decision by challenging France's application of a "safeguard" provision in which the EU allows a country to block sales of cars that would "seriously harm the environment." In spite of Daimler's victory, France has cited that very provision as basis for the continuation of the ban.
Daimler got permission from Germany's KBA federal motor authority to keep selling cars with the coolant banned by EU politicians, and is using that national permission as the right to sell the cars throughout Europe. Meanwhile, above that battle, German politicians are asking the EU to let Mercedes sell the cars in France while the KBA does more testing, at the same time as the EU is threatening Germany with repercussions if it doesn't bring the KBA and Daimler into line.
Missouri Mercedes dealer offering free Smart with every SLS AMG purchase
Wed, 05 Dec 2012The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT is an exquisite sports car that probably needs no help flying off dealer lots, even with a starting price of almost $200,000, but Mercedes-Benz of Kansas City has come up with an interesting incentive to sweeten the deal. For buyers who purchase a new SLS AMG from dealer stock before the end of the year, the dealership is throwing in a new Smart Fortwo from its inventory at no charge... with a required coupon no less.
In addition to being a great tactic to get a little free press, the spare car also makes sense as an alternative to the SLS, which measures more than 15-feet long - almost twice the length of a Fortwo - and has a 563-horsepower engine that sucks down gas at the rate of 13 miles per gallon in city driving (and even that's provided you don't give in to the devil on your shoulder). Plus, at the end of the day, this really isn't that big of an incentive. Being given a slow-selling $12,490 car for the purchase of a model starting at $199,500 represents about a six percent incentive, which is along the lines of a $1,900 rebate for a $30,000 car.
To get the free Smart, just visit the Mercedes-Benz of Kansas City Facebook page, redeem the coupon and then go buy yourself a new SLS AMG. Congratulations!
