I just put an offer on a house and we must sell our beloved weekend cruiser. We inherited the car a couple of years back and we love the attention we get when driving it. Its a 1980 Mercedes Benz 300SD Turbo diesel with 157,725 Original miles since new in Excellent Condition. Finished in Manilla Beige (681) on Tobacco MBTEX. Its always been a California car and always garaged. It has NO RUST. The paint shines beautifully and the interior is in near pristine condition ( 1 small tear on the drive seat backrest). The spare tire and jack are included as well as the manuals. This car drives perfectly and it starts immediately, has excellent power and shifts smooth, timely and proper. The suspension is controlled and supple. The front and rear seats are firm and supportive. All options work as intended (Except air ) including all windows. There are no cracks on the dash or anywhere. The headliner looks like brand new. A few minor blemishes on the exterior but the original paint shines nicely and the chrome trim is in great shape. It has never been in an accident. Tires are in good shape. The Radio is temperamental but the speakers work well. The bottom part of the font bumper needs replacing. As with any used car, there are some minor flaws here and there. I serviced the car regularly and I just did the brakes. I would trust this car on a cross country drive. The left lower light lense is broken and a the little runner part on the front bumper has a crack (check pics). but over all the car is a very strong 8/10. Inspections are welcome, car is in Santa Monica Ca. One of these cars recently sold for $20,000 on ebay.

Elephant with an itch to scratch uses cars for relief

Thu, Jan 15 2015

Sometimes in life you, get an itch in a place that you need some help to scratch it. That feeling apparently goes for elephants as well as humans. A pachyderm at the Khao Yai National Park in Thailand recently had some serious comfort in its rump. Unfortunately, the giant animal chose several passing vehicles to alleviate the problem. Things start out rather cute with the elephant rubbing its enormous behind on a Mercedes-Benz. However, another vehicle apparently doesn't provide the same level of relief. The animal seems to grow annoyed and starts taking the sedan apart with at least one person inside. The experience must have been mammothly terrifying. According to BBC News, no one was injured, and the odd behavior is being blamed on a result of the elephant's mating season. Male elephants, as well as other male pachyderms, go through a period called the musth, when testosterone levels rise to several times greater than normal in preparation for the mating season. It makes the elephant aggressive, irritable and yes, itchy.

Russia gives its Olympic medalists new Mercedes

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Russian medalists at the recently concluded Sochi Winter Olympics are being rewarded quite handsomely for their service to the Motherland. In addition to the $120,000 being handed out for each gold medal, the $76,000 being awarded for slivers and $52,000 given to bronze winners, now word has come out that each of Russia's medalists will be gifted a new Mercedes-Benz.
As with the prize amounts, the type of Mercedes offered was based on what sort of medal was won. Gold medalists got a new GL-Class, silver medalists were given an ML and bronze medalists were treated to a GLK. As prices for Mercedes are higher in Russia, the cheapest model, the GLK, was the equivalent of $59,500, according to The Moscow Times. The cars were handed out by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, pictured above with figure skating medalist Julia Lipnitskaia.
"I was a bit shocked at the car I was given," Anton Shipulin, a member of the gold-medal biathlon relay team, told RIA-Novosti. "Of course I knew what kind of model it would be, but I didn't totally believe it." For athletes not old enough to drive, like 15-year-old Lipnitskaia, their Mercedes will come complete with a driver.
