This is a very rare 1984 Mercedes Euro 300TD Turbo Diesel Station Wagon that I pulled out of a barn in New Hampshire a decade ago ,The correct vin # is WBD1231931F014848, Ebay would not allow the Euro vin #, the one in the description is for the parts car included in this auction, The European models came very basic, manual windows, manual sunroof and manual heater controls (no climate control) cloth seats and It did have the optional inside remote dash controlled headlights from the factory, the original headlights are long gone but the switch and everything else is still intact and I have seen the correct Euro lights here on Ebay, it also has a rare factory safety net and cargo cover and luggage bars for the roof rack and A/C, you can still see the "Partical filter" adapter required in Europe on the exhaust next to the turbo.You can see in the pics also the rare "red" reverse light on the drivers side for Euro models only and it also has the original spare tire, I did have this car running when I first bought it, every thing worked including the hydraulic rear suspension but the engine had a knock due to lack of oil. I started removing the engine but have run out of time, everything under the hood has been disconnected, the only thing holding the motor in now is the motor mounts and bell housing bolts, this is a VERY clean car, the only rust it has it what you see in the pics with the exception of a small hole on the drivers side rear floor, it has some small dents as can be seen in the pics and I have a collection of NOS Euro parts that goes with it also, Bumper ends Ect...Also included in this Auction is a 1983 parts car with a low miladge engine (the green station wagon) This car was my daily driver for many years, the previous owner had told me it had a rebuilt motor but had lost the documents, so as a mechanic for the past 30 years I installed a new timing chain, guides, seals, gaskets and injectors just for precaution, while doing so I found "heat tabs" on the motor which many rebuilders use for warranty purposes, unfortunately a few thousand miles later the transmission went and I discovered the frame was too rotted and decided to put this motor in the silver car but have run out of time and have no place to do it. the green car has 171000 on the clock and drove like it was new, the car still starts right up and runs great but only has reverse and has been sitting for many years, do not even think about fixing the green one as it has very rusty frame and floors and is no longer road worthy but does have a brand new stainless engine pipe and muffler and tail pipe, and it does have a very clean off white interior, Feel free to make me an offer on the Silver Euro wagon if you have a motor or the package but I will not sell the motor in the green car until the silver one has been sold, the motor in the green car is worth the starting bid of the two cars alone, these are special engines for the station wagons because they have the hydraulic pumps mounted on the head that operate the rear suspension that the sedans do not. I can Email more pics if you like, This auction is for the two cars as a package or I can remove the motor out of the green one for the high bidder if they like for the same price minuse the parts car, Please feel free to come look at these cars anytime before you bid, they are located at 2982 Route 9 Cold Spring NY 10516, 6 miles south of Exit 13 off Interstate 84 on U.S. Route 9 on the east side of the Hudson River, feel free to tex or call me at 845-490-8998, thanks Casey.... Make sure you click on the "see other items" link on the right hand side of this page to view other parts I have for sale on Ebay, International bidders please keep in mind both of these vehicles must be towed, they do not move under their own power so please keep this in mind for your shipper....

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class caught totally undisguised
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Based on the lightly camouflaged spy shots of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class we've seen lately, it hasn't taken a vivid imagination to picture what the next iteration of this big luxury sedan will look like. Even so, we now we have our first unobstructed views of the redesigned S-Class, codenamed W222, as it has just been caught out flaunting for some promo shots.
The first thing we notice about the new S-Class design is the disappearance of the last generation's flared wheel arches. Yet the new design adds even more character with bodyside creases similar to the CLS-Class and some elements reminiscent of 2007's F700 Concept, including the massive grille and vertical LED taillights. Other key details include a large panoramic roof and the narrow exhaust outlets, but the large LED-trimmed headlights and the aggressive front fascia are probably the biggest departure from the current design. With these spy shots, we also catch a blurry shot of the interior, but we've seen a practically uncovered look at the new S-Class' cabin back in January.
Overall, the next S-Class sports an expressive and premium new look, but as far as all-new designs go, it's quite conservative - a move no doubt fitting for these lean financial times.
2019 Autoblog Technology of the Year finalists revealed
Fri, Jan 4 2019Every fall, we line up a range of new models with the latest and most compelling automotive technology from the past year. We test everything from semi-autonomous systems like Tesla's Autopilot to trick suspension setups like the Multimatic spool-valve shocks on the Chevy Colorado ZR2. We spend months paring down the list to a small group of contenders. After testing, dinner and healthy debate, we tally up the votes and name our winner. For Autoblog's 2019 Technology of the Year Award, our three finalists are the Cadillac CT6 with Super Cruise, the Infiniti QX50 with Variable Compression Turbo and the Mercedes-AMG E 53 with EQ Boost. Super Cruise is an advanced SAE Level 2 semi-autonomous system, though Cadillac (unlike some of its rivals) is reluctant to push that point. Cadillac would like you to think of this as an advanced driver assistance feature rather than a semi-autonomous system. Super Cruise allows completely hands-free highway driving. Thanks to a driver-facing camera, the system forces the driver to keep his or her eyes on the road even if hands are off the wheel. Although the CT6 is being discontinued, look for Super Cruise to make its way to other Cadillacs soon. VC Turbo is a little more complicated. Basically, Infiniti's 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four can vary the compression ratio on the fly. In general, turbocharged engines are more efficient than naturally-aspirated engines when on boost, but can perform worse at low revs. VC Turbo allows for a best-of-both-worlds situation, increasing the compression at low revs and backing it off once the turbo spools up. The best part is that it does so seamlessly, with only a dash readout letting you know what's going on under the hood. Our third finalist is the EQ Boost 48-volt system in the Mercedes-AMG E 53. Like VC Turbo, EQ Boost does a lot just beneath the surface. Mercedes has developed a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and paired it with a small electric motor. While the car can't run on electricity alone, the motor helps improve both efficiency and performance, smoothing shifts and filling in low-end torque before the turbos spool up. Think torque fill, similar to a McLaren P1. Who can complain about better fuel economy and more torque? Look for the 48-volt system to make its way into most of the Mercedes-Benz lineup. The winner will be revealed next week on Autoblog, and we'll present the award Jan. 15 at the Detroit Auto Show. Related Video:
Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive is a rock star, FedEx tests electric trucks
Thu, Oct 2 2014The Mercedes-Benz B-Class Electric Drive is in a new music video for I Lived by OneRepublic. The band's singer, Ryan Tedder, has also been brought on as a brand ambassador for the German automaker. OneRepublic will also be performing the song at the Mercedes-Benz Media Night on the eve of the Paris Motor Show. No word if Mercedes plans to offer hordes of screaming teenage fans as an option package with the B-Class Electric Drive. See the video (the car shows up around the four-minute mark) or read more in the press release below. FedEx is testing converted electric delivery trucks with diesel range extenders. Looking to shrink its carbon footprint, the company has converted a handful of trucks as part of a pilot program. In addition to battery packs, each truck is equipped with diesel turbine generators (supplied by Ian Wright's company, Wrightspeed) to provide electricity when the battery is depleted. Because the diesel motors aren't powering the vehicle directly, they can continuously run at their most efficient speed, making the trucks about twice as efficient as those powered by traditional means. Read more at Wired. Ford's new aluminum-bodied F-150 will be 5 to 20 percent more efficient, the company says. The fuel economy gains depend on the particular version of the truck, but the biggest improvement will likely come from the 3.5-liter V6 and the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V-6. Automotive News predicts the F-150 SFE to be rated at 21 mpg city/28 highway/23 combined, which are identical figures to the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. The result could be a noteworthy fuel economy battle between Ford and Ram trucks. Learn more at Automotive News. The US Department of Energy is providing $25 million in funding toward reducing the price of algal biofuels. The goal is to get the price of these renewable fuels below $5 per gasoline gallon equivalent (gge) by 2019, and less than $3 per gge by 2030. The money will fund projects to develop better algal cultures that produce biofuel and other useful bioproducts, and projects to boost biomass productivity. The DOE says it wants to help develop a "bioeconomy" that provides jobs, helps the environment and ensures energy security. Read more at Energy.gov. This content is hosted by a third party.
