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....

2018 Lincoln Navigator vs luxury SUV rivals: How it compares on paper
Wed, Nov 8 2017The all-new 2018 Lincoln Navigator is an impressive, luxury-lined beast. However, while its Black Label interior stood out most during our first drive of the new Navigator, it also seemed pretty clear that much of this full-size SUV was superior to the competition in a number of fundamental ways. Its Raptor-sourced 3.5-liter V6 had class-leading power for one, and its third-row seat seemed as spacious and comfortable as its rivals' are cramped and barely usable. To search for your next new vehicle, try Autoblog' s Car Finder. Yet, I wanted to take a closer look at how the Navigator fully compares on paper to its competitors - especially the Cadillac Escalade with which it most directly competes. The below spreadsheet should tell the whole story, but as you can see, there's an awful lot of class-leading green highlighter in the Navigator's column. The cargo volume and third-row legroom numbers are particularly telling, with the latter actually going up to 42.3 inches when you slide the second-row fully forward. Now, a few things to note about the above spreadsheet. The GLS-Class is also available as the GLS 550, which boasts a 4.7-liter V8 that just comes up short to the Navigator with 449 horsepower but has to deal with only 5,578 pounds. Its $94,950 price tag is comparable to the Navigator Black Label. Much of the LX 570's information is also applicable to the Toyota Land Cruiser, which, badge aside, could certainly be considered a member of this segment given its feature content and still-hefty price tag. It has better ground clearance and approach/departure angles than its Lexus sibling, along with an as-indicated lower price. Much of the Escalade's information also applies to the GMC Yukon Denali, while the Infiniti QX80 is applicable to the Nissan Armada.

Mercedes reveals F 015 Luxury in Motion concept at CES [w/videos]
Tue, Jan 6 2015Whatever you think of the idea, autonomous vehicles are emerging as the way of the future in the automotive industry, and Mercedes is showing its vision for that driverless destiny with the F 015 concept at CES this week. Billed as Luxury in Motion, the F 015 first popped onto our radar back in October when it was snapped under wraps and then again when the German automaker released the first teaser image previewing its silhouette, but has now taken center stage at the electronics expo in Las Vegas. So what is it exactly, you ask? Well, aside from being entirely autonomous – bringing together a suite of advanced technologies to take the driver out of the equation – it's also big. It's marginally larger than an S-Class, in fact, and with a more spacious one-box form that turns the cabin into a rolling living room. That's where you'll find four individual bucket seats that swivel towards each other, and pivot towards the giant doors for ease of ingress and egress. The doors open a full 90 degrees and the back ones swing suicide-style like on a Rolls-Royce, but without a B-pillar to get in the way. An array of six display screens turn the cabin – clad in wood, aluminum, glass and leather – into an all-enveloping "digital arena," with gesture-based controls, touch-sensitive screens and eye-tracking technology. Made of carbon fiber, aluminum and high-strength steel, the concept is some 40-percent lighter than a conventional automobile of its size. And while Mercedes isn't saying exactly what would provide the motivation (and to what effect), it does state that "the bodyshell of the F 015 Luxury in Motion was designed to allow the impact-protected integration of an electric drive system with fuel cell." The concept follows the debut of the Future Truck 2025 concept big-rig at the IAA Commercial Vehicles show in Hannover a few months ago, and is earmarked to make transportation through and between the world's growing cities a smoother, safer and less human-intensive ordeal. Whether that's the kind of future you want to live in is another matter, but you can scope it out in the videos and press release below and in the extensive gallery of images above for a closer look.

Mercedes-AMG planning hybrid hypercar?
Mon, Jan 19 2015It used to be that, a few overlapping two-door models aside, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche didn't really compete with one another. That's how the two ended up collaborating on projects like the Mercedes 500 E that put it on the performance sedan map without fear of stepping on each other's toes. But Porsche has grown considerably since then, challenging its Stuttgart neighbor with four-door sedans and crossovers, as well as sports coupes and convertibles. Little wonder, then, that Mercedes has hit back at Porsche with the AMG GT, and there will be many more versions to follow in 911 style. But that may not be the final salvo the Silver Star marque launches at Zuffenhausen. According to the latest bit of speculation and deduction from our friends at Motor Trend, Mercedes-AMG may be planning a hybrid hypercar of its own to take on the Porsche 918 Spyder – not to mention the McLaren P1 and LaFerrari. Solid information is sparse at this point, but after speaking to AMG chief Tobias Moers, MT speculates that the new flagship will likely be mid-engined, with a boosted version of the company's 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 kicking out between 650 and 700 horsepower, working with a pair of electric motors at the front to deliver tenacious through-the-road all-wheel traction and a combined output in the thousand-horsepower range. There is the possibility, though, that Mercedes could go after the latest hybrid hypercars with a flagship version of its just-launched AMG GT, packing a similar powertrain setup as the ultimate evolution of the breed. Other GT versions will likely soon include a GT3 racing model, a Black Series version and a roadster – following a similar path taken not only by the 911, but also by Benz's previous halo supercars like the SLR McLaren and SLS AMG.
