Great 1984 Mercedes 300d-t sedan for sale!!!

Champagne/Palominio color combo. (473 paint code)

Repainted and all body work done in last 9 months. Not a stractch, dent or nick on it. Been under carport under a cover or in storage when not used!

I have decided to sell some cars because we simply are running out of room (have 8 currently). The only reason i decided to sell this car is that id like a bit more variety in my collection since i have many 4-door sedans. I bought this car last summer from a very nice couple who kept it in storage but didnt drive it much. It needed some TLC so i spent a few months bringing this car up to where it deserved to be. Ive had 4 of these and i love fixing them up and driving them. Before i bought the car i have a reciept for work done to the front end, motor and transmission mounts, drive belts and hoses, ball joints and shift linkage bushings. I have since had done or performed myself the following:

New front and rear shocks and alignment

New battery and alternator (denso)

Repair dent on trunk, passenger rear door, drivers quarter panel, passenger bottom right fender (under bumper), repaint original color paint code 473. Car was hand buffed a month later and will be prior to sale again. New dual color pinstripe (brown/beige)

Vacuum check valve for engine shut off , new molded dashboard cover, replaced vacuum hoses inside dashboard. Replaced dashboard woodgrain pieces as needed.

New window swtiches for console.

New kenwood CD player. All new bulbs for dashboard. Replaced door lock striker for passenger door.

New fog light bulbs and lenses. Newer headlight surrounds (have a couple small stone ships on each).

Replaced the passenger side rear tailight (was cracked).

New dealer Mercedes floormats.

Oil and filter changed with Shell Rotella 15w-40. The power steering fluid was changed and with a new filter.

Air cleaner bushings were replaced.

This car starts, runs, drives and stops like it is supposed too. No surprizes! The glow plugs were changed by the previous owner only a couple of thousand miles ago. The engine has great compression and the turbocharger works well with no whining sounds. Transmission performs normal. These are the best engines ever fitted into a passenger car, but im assuming you already know this if youre reading this ad! The tires all match, hold air great and have 65% tread left. When the engine is turns off it shuts off immediately. It will leak on occasion a couple small drips after it is turned off. Sometimes not at all. All lights work, all gauges work (even the small clock under the tach), all windows work, the central locking system works, interior lights, sunroof, climate control works correctly and blows out of the center two vents. I drove the car to houston and back last spring and the cruise control worked. I have not used it since then but i will check again when im on the freeway. The power antenna does not work strangely but im fairly certain its only the motor. Its hooked up the back of the new stereo and doesn't blow fuses. The motor is easily changed from inside the trunk. I listen to CD's mostly but the radio will still recieve reception with the mast down. Your choice to replace. The A/C compressor never had a belt on it when i bought it, so i have no idea if the A/C will blow cold. Does not blow cold currently. The seats are in very good shape with no rips or cuts. MB-tex can last forever if not abused! The headliner also very good with a small tear (1 inch) coming out of the rear courtisey light. The door panels great with only some discoloration on the rear passenger armrest (maybe a window left cracked open and rain stained it. The piping around some of the door fabric has also come loose. The interior an 8/10. The exterior id also say an 8/10. Paint shines great, bumpers good (aera where two small bumper stickers have been taken off shows a difference), all trim and emblems there and in great shape! The rims are in good shape i feel they should be re-dipped however since they show wear. Doing this would really make this a headturner. Doors all slam with that old mercedes thunk that you'd expect. I own a 2000 E320 and the doors sound nothing like the way these close. The last of the best from mercedes-benz. My favorite cars as well. Ask one that has owned one! I have discribed this car as best as i know how and all its shortcomings because i buy cars here too and hate to be rudely surprized. However, i encourage you to ask questions no matter how big or small. I will be checking my e-mails daily and will offer a prompt response. This is a nice car and have put a reserve on it, but is very reasonable. Good luck!

I dont know why the autocheck puts on here an odometer discreptancy. All the date and mileage intervals line up in sequence. Just like carfax reports i feel they are worthless in many cases!  I have the original owners manual with all of the first oil changes listed and have the dealer plate that shows build date and purchase date. All of my records that i have will go with the new owner. Thanks!

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic [w/video]

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

Maybe you saw our recent blog snippet on a bunch of US journos getting pulled over in the middle of nowhere in Catalunya, Spain for driving a bunch of new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG models. By all accounts, they weren't speeding - which makes me softly guffaw. I was there in that group, yet I had taken the more direct route into the mountains from Barcelona so that I could... well, so that I could go faster. No one hassled me and I had the Autovia all to myself. And it was the goodniks - the team players - who got nabbed because Spain had decided to suddenly enforce the never enforced "must carry an international driver's license" clause of the highway code.
The departing E63 AMG with 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque from its M157 5.5-liter biturbo V8 hasn't exactly been poorly received. It isn't as crisp as, nor as pleasantly evil as its C63 AMG kid brother, but we generally accept that the heavier and larger car will always feel, well, heavier and larger.
As part of the 2014 E-Class mid-cycle redesign, Affalterbach decided to give its E63 AMG more power and torque for the occasion. The base car now gives off 550 hp and 531 lb-ft, while the hotter S version I tested (formerly the AMG Performance Pack) produces 577 hp and 590 lb-ft. The other big novelty is that E63 sedans will be available with both rear- and all-wheel drive, while all US-spec E63 wagons will be 4Matic equipped.

2016 Malaysian Grand Prix recap: Surprises and missed opportunities

Mon, Oct 3 2016

Mercedes-AMG Petronas pilot Lewis Hamilton drove so well in the run-up to the Malaysian Grand Prix that he said before the race, "Honestly, I don't feel anything is going to stop us." On Sunday, the Sepang race showed what it thought of plans and predictions. Heading into the right-hand Turn 1, Sebastian Vettel practically recreated the dust-up at the Belgian Grand Prix three races ago. When Mercedes' Nico Rosberg swept across from the outside line toward the apex, Red Bull's Max Verstappen had to jink right to avoid, touching Vettel's Ferrari on the inside. Vettel speared straight on and hit Rosberg. Vettel's left front suspension broke, ending his race. Rosberg spun and got moving again, but at the back of the pack. That appeared to put Hamilton on a clear run to the checkered flag. His car looked perfect, his pace was perfect, he easily kept Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo and Verstappen behind. A result that would have seen Hamilton retake control of the Driver's Championship – at Petronas' home race – got crushed on Lap 41 when Hamilton's engine blew down the main straight. That put Ricciardo in the lead, followed closely by his teammate. Just two laps before Hamilton's exit, Ricciardo and Verstappen had battled for second place with some of the best driving we've seen all season. Ricciardo drove as if exorcising the demons of missed opportunities earlier in the year, keeping the young Dutchman behind. The two Red Bulls took the flag fifteen laps later in that order, clocking the first one-two finish for a team other than Mercedes since 2014. It's Red Bull's first one-two since Brazil 2013, when Vettel and Mark Weber took the top steps at the last race of the V8 era. Rosberg recovered to take third in spite of a ten-second penalty for an optimistic pass on Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen. The Finn crossed the line 12 seconds later, followed by Valtteri Bottas in the Williams and Sergio Perez in the Force India. In another Belgium repeat, Fernando Alonso drove from the back of the grid to finish seventh. Nico Hulkenberg secured eighth, Jenson Button ninth for McLaren in his 300th grand prix, and rookie Jolyon Palmer scored his first point of the season for Renault in tenth. The issue to trump all others from now until next week's Japanese Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton's terrible luck with engines. Power unit gremlins earlier this season helped drop the Brit to 43 points behind Rosberg after the Russian Grand Prix.

Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron

Tue, Jan 3 2017

Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.
