Up for sale is a timeless classic Mercedes diesel! I am listing this vehicle at NO RESERVE so the high bidder will own this bullet-proof sedan! The Mercedes starts up after a few cranks without a hitch. When the weather is cold, it cranks for a longer time and needs a boost/jump once in a while. It does ALWAYS start. The turbo spools up well and it has good acceleration for an old turbo diesel Benz. Like any old German car, the motor is not completely dry and has some wet spots/oil seepages. The transmission shifts through all gears including reverse and the car drives and stops as it seemingly should. The e-brake holds ok. The tires are older and could use replacement/balancing. I also heard occasional squeaks from the suspension while driving. The climate control with the fan etc. does work as far as I can tell. All the power windows go up and down fine, The radio is missing as seen in the pictures. All power funtions aside from the power antenna work, to the best of my knowledge. The exterior paint is weathered from the Colorado sun. It has a couple of surface rust spots as seen in the photos as well as multiple spots where rust repair was performed as seen in the photos. Please see the pictures for exterior condition. As far as the interior, the front seats are cracked, and the dash has cracks in multiple places as seen in the photos, overall the interior is in fairly good condition for a 30 year old vehicle. It also has four (4) keys and owners manuals. I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability and knowledge. It is being sold as is with no warranty or guarantee of any kind expressed or implied. Feel free to contact me to see the car in person or set up an inspection from a third party. I will assist in any way possible. This vehicle is not for someone who is not OK with quirks of old German cars. You can come pick up the vehicle in person, or set up shipping. All pick up/transportation arrangements must be made by the buyer. If you need to be picked up from Denver International Airport, we are more than happy to do so. A non-refundable $250 deposit is due with 48 hours of the auction end. We charge a $150 dealer processing fee on EVERY vehicle sale which covers paperwork and a Colorado temp tag. Do not bid unless you intend to buy. The full balance is due, and vehicle must be picked up within 7 days of the auction end. The high bidder will own this vehicle. I have a clear signed title in hand ready to go. Feel free to contact me with any questions and I will answer them to the best of my ability.Thanks for looking!

Firing of M-B boss upheld
Mon, 15 Jul 2013Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.
Online Find of the Day: Lexus-engined Mercedes pickup is a vintage hybrid
Tue, 16 Sep 2014You have to love someone who gets incredibly committed to a very weird idea. What you see for sale here is a right-hand drive 1971 Mercedes-Benz 220D in South Africa, but this old Mercedes is now converted into a pickup, complete with bed cover, and there's big secret under the hood, too.
The pickup conversion appears well done based on seller Sedgefield Classic Cars' photos. Even the tonneau cover fits well. You could almost believe that this Mercedes lived its life as a Chevrolet El Camino-like pickup from the very beginning.
However, the rear-quarters conversion might not be the weirdest thing about this Mercedes. The original diesel is gone from the engine bay in favor of a Lexus V8. It seems really odd to pop the hood and find a Japanese mill in this German car, but the photos make it look like a fairly well performed swap. So, bravo to the crazy thinking. According to the seller speaking to Autoblog by email, "as far as we can establish, this was done a few years ago, with all Lexus components."
