1984 Mercedes Benz 300d - Florida Car on 2040-cars
Leavittsburg, Ohio, United States
A friend of mine purchased two Mercedes W123's in Florida and trailer-ed them back to Pennsylvania. He drove this car for 18 months and decided that this would be a parts car for the wagon. He never finished the project so I purchased the car. It sat in a garage while he owned it covered with a tarp and has been garaged it's entire life. I drove it for 10,000 miles and planned on running it off of my own home-made bio-diesel but our house burned down and I never got back to the project. My wife said it has to go since she bought me a 2003 BMW. The dealer at the BMW store wanted me to bring the car in for a trade-in and we asked what would happen to the car and he said they would crush it for $500. At least my wife didn't agree to that! My loss is your gain. Lots of new parts come with the vehicle including: tie rods, left front caliper, right front rotor, right ball joint, flex disks, center carrier bearing, both rear axles, lower oil cooler line, motor and shock mounts. Some have been installed and some are still in boxes. Before I drove it, I replaced the broken window (seen in pic), changed all the fluids and put another grill and headlight assembly in, dropped and cleaned the tank and fuel filter screen. The hood was sent out to be painted and has already been primer-ed but at this price I won't have it re-painted. I also have another set of 4 tires and Mercedes wheels and the rubber bumper strip. The car would be a great project to finish up with not much work to make it road worthy. I am willing to bring the car on my trailer (for no charge) up to 100 miles from my address. (or more if if needed!) I really don't want to see this car sold for scrap. The pictures listed are from when I brought the car home. It looks much nicer now. I will take some more current pics of the exterior and interior and post them asap. Any questions feel free to call Dave at 330-307-4258.

Fri, Sep 27 2019In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder and Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale. This week, they focus on the cars they're driving, starting with the hardcore, four-door Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S. Then they move on to the aging Lexus GX 460 and the plucky Fiat 124 Spider Abarth. They discuss the practical-yet-luxurious Lincoln Nautilus, as well as the state of Lincoln as a whole (did you hear it just got a new design boss?). Finally, they help pick a modern vehicle for someone with a hankering for the look of the classic Ford Bronco.

Mercedes sues Ferrari-bound F1 engineer for stealing secrets
Tue, Dec 8 2015Mercedes is suing one of its Formula One engineers, one Benjamin Hoyle, claiming he was planning to take sensitive data to a competitor. An experienced powertrain engineer, Hoyle came to Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains in 2012 with previous experience at Prodrive and Cosworth. One of four team leaders at the company, Hoyle headed up the performance application department until he notified his employers of his intention not to seek renewal of his contract that expires at the end of this year. Once they found out that Hoyle was switching to Ferrari, the higher-ups at Mercedes reassigned him to other, less sensitive duties, however Hoyle was reportedly discovered accessing race reports and other sensitive data relating to the performance of the team's engines. In response, Mercedes has filed suit against Hoyle, claiming that he "and potentially Ferrari have gained an unlawful advantage." The German automaker is seeking the return of all documents and the payment of its legal fees. It also seeks to prevent Hoyle from working for another F1 team throughout next season. Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains is the Daimler's F1 engine division. Based in Brixworth, UK, it was founded back in 1983 together with Ilmor before Mercedes bought it outright. Aside from the company's own works team, the outfit this year powered Williams, Lotus, and Force India, and previously worked with McLaren as well as Sauber. This is not the first time that a case of industrial espionage has emerged in F1. A similar controversy erupted in 2007 surrounding engineers Nigel Stepney and Mike Coughlan. The highly publicized incident became known as "Spygate" or "Stepneygate" and involved the illegal sharing of secrets between Ferrari, McLaren, and Renault.
