This 1984 Mercedes wagon was finished in "light ivory" ( MB color code 623) with Palomino color MB-tex interior . This is a very elegant and practical color combination and it was the most popular color for this model at the time . The paint is in great condition . There are no scratches dings or dents and the paint shines like new . This car really stands out and i do get compliments every time i drive it . The interior is very clean as well , as the many pictures will show . There are no rips or tears in the seats . The carpets are clean and even the wood is in wonderful condition .The 123 series Mercedes have a great reputation for being some of the best built and engineered cars Mercedes ever made. They are very reliable and they still get you 27 mpg of diesel . In 1981 Mercedes introduced the turbo charger for the 3 liter diesel engine . Now they also had plenty of power . This car is truly fun to drive in town and on the freeway . It reminds you of a time , when cars were built to last you a lifetime and not only until the next model comes along . This Mercedes wagon has only 187k miles on it , which is actually considered low mileage for this particular 30 year old model . They often last for well over 500k miles. There are several Mercedes diesel with the same engine on Ebay right now with over 400k miles and still driving well . If you keep maintaining this car the way it has been serviced so far , it will transport you in style for a very long time . It has been fully serviced and the valves have been adjusted . In 2010 the transmission  was completely rebuilt and i also have the receipts for it . The AC was serviced 2 months ago and it blows nice and cold . This wagon always starts up right away , has lots of power and shifts perfectly . It would make a wonderful vehicle for somebody who wants to drive a classic car every day and not worry about it breaking down all the time . It would also be a great candidate for a bio diesel conversion , where you can drive it on vegetable oil or even free waste oil from restaurants . I have never tried it on this car , but i was told , it is a easy conversion and this engine is ideal for it . This wagon could also work for a collector . You just do not see them often that clean and with less than 250k miles anymore . This is a wonderful 30 year old classic car in great condition and it will be sold WITHOUT a warranty . I would prefer to sell it locally to somebody who could come out and see it . But i would also be willing to help with shipping arrangements or an airport pick up . All shipping charges would have to be paid by the winning bidder . Please do have your funding in order and do all your " due diligence " BEFORE placing a bid .If you have any questions or would like to see the car , please send me an email through Ebay and will get back to you promptly . Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck ....

2015 Austrian F1 Grand Prix switches to alternating current

Mon, Jun 22 2015

It's called the Red Bull Ring, guests are welcomed by a statue of a leaping bull, and dominating its layout demands powerful cars that can run it hard. Perhaps all that aggression is what led both Mercedes-AMG Petronas cars to run off the track in the final qualifying session on their final hot laps, a little too aggressive on the charge. Lewis Hamilton was first into the gravel at Turn 1 when he lost his car under braking, but he was still fast enough to get pole ahead of teammate Nico Rosberg, who spun at Turn 8. Rosberg started second. Or perhaps it wasn't the red bull but the scarlet horse that caused The Silver Arrows to muck it up: Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel had Mercedes' attention all weekend, and he'd line up in third just 0.355 off Hamilton's time. Williams truly rediscovered its power, Felipe Massa going fourth fastest, teammate Valtteri Bottas in sixth. Between them was newly-minted Le Mans winner Nico Hulkenberg, yet again – can we say that enough? – pulling the still-not-updated Force India to fifth place on the grid. Max Verstappen led the Renault-powered top-ten duo in his Toro Rosso in seventh, Infiniti Red Bull Racing driver Daniil Kvyat behind him in eighth. Kvyat, however, would start down the order because of a ten-place grid penalty for needing a fifth Renault engine. After that it's back to Mercedes Ferrari power, Felipe Nasr in the Sauber in ninth, Romain Grosjean in with Mercedes power in the Lotus in tenth – but fellow Lotus driver Pastor Maldonado actually started in tenth because of Kvyat's demotion. Before we get to the race, can we take a moment to talk about the shenanigans and gaudy penalties? Kimi Raikkonen waved the Ferrari flag in Canada after a season that's been full of "We didn't get it right this time," and we thought he was back. But no. In Austria the refrain returned, the Finn kicked out of Q1 after another miscommunication with the team – he qualified 18th. If the scenario plays to form, we'll now wait for team boss Mauricio Arrivabene to issue a clarification that suggests Raikkonen missed a step. Daniel Ricciardo parachutes ten spots back for the same reason as his teammate Kvyat, needing a fifth Renault power unit, dropping him to 18th on the grid and forcing him into a five-second time penalty when he comes in to pit.

Automakers suspend some business in Russia following invasion

Mon, Feb 28 2022

These Russian GAZ Tigr infantry mobility vehicles were destroyed by Ukrainian fighters in Kharkiv on Monday. (Getty Images)   Global auto and truck makers, including Sweden's Volvo Cars and Germany's Daimler Truck, on Monday suspended some business in Russia following that country's invasion of Ukraine. Russian forces invaded Ukraine last week, marking the biggest attack by one state against another in Europe since World War II. Many firms have idled operations in Russia following Western sanctions against Russia. Energy giant BP Plc, Russia's biggest foreign investor, abruptly announced over the weekend it was abandoning its 20% stake in state-controlled Rosneft at a cost of up to $25 billion. On Monday, Swedish automaker Volvo Cars said it would suspend car shipments to the Russian market until further notice, becoming the first international automaker to do so as sanctions over the invasion continue to bite. In a statement, the company said it had made the decision because of "potential risks associated with trading material with Russia, including the sanctions imposed by the EU and US." "Volvo Cars will not deliver any cars to the Russian market until further notice," it said. A Volvo spokesman said the carmaker exports vehicles to Russia from plants in Sweden, China and the United States. This came as Russia warned Sweden and Finland not to join NATO or risk facing “serious military-political consequences." Volvo sold around 9,000 cars in Russia in 2021, based on industry data. Earlier on Monday, RIA news agency reported Volkswagen had temporarily suspended deliveries of cars already in Russia to local dealerships, citing a company statement. VW had no immediate comment when contacted by Reuters. VW previously said it would halt production for a few days this week at two German factories after a delay in getting parts made in Ukraine. Daimler Truck said on Monday it would freeze its business activities in Russia with immediate effect, including its cooperation with Russian truck maker Kamaz. Mercedes-Benz Group is also looking into legal options to divest its 15% stake in Kamaz as quickly as possible, the Handelsblatt newspaper reported. A Mercedes spokesperson told Reuters business activities would have to be re-evaluated in light of the current events. Mercedes-Benz Group, formerly Daimler AG, was the parent company of Daimler Truck before the truck maker was spun off.
