 1984 Mercedes 300TD Turbo Wagon
recent paint in Anthracite Grey w/tan MB Tex interior
w/Trailer Hitch-Solid Dependable Stylish Ride
If you're looking at this car, you already know
the W123 Series Mercedes built from 1979-1985
is the last over-engineered, most durable car they've ever made

This wagon runs & drives terrific. Transmission shifts smoothly and is tight.
Previous owner replaced the stock air filter with a free-flowing K&N performance filter unit. Other than that, the car is stock.
Car was originally white, but repainted before I took ownership.
A couple of paint nicks here and there, but overall very straight and a quality, high gloss paint job. The only rust I've seen is on driver's door
at bottom corner and it was addressed during the repaint. Original Blaupunkt radio/cassette works as well as does the auto up/down external radio antenna.
The Roof rack has the chrome cross-bars often missing and go for $500 used. Recent Service includes-brake work, with both rear calipers and brake lines replaced, oil & filter change, fuel filter(s) changed, new glove box door, new engine compartment sound insulation pad. The wagons came standard with hydraulic rear suspension referred to as SLS.
The SLS works great and soaks up the bumps but still rides comfortably.
Original owner's manual in excellent condition.
The car is striking in this unique color.
The not-so great?-interior could use some TLC. Dash has the usual cracks, but dash covers are only $100
  Seats, carpet, etc I'd give a  6  out of 10. Left hand hood spring loose,  but hood stays up fine in vertical position. 
If you're looking for a solid classic with modern safety features that rides smooth as silk, and don't mind putting in a little TLC on interior, this car is a great car for you.
As I said, there are no known mechanical issues but it is a 29 year old vehicle and as so, is sold as-is with no warranty.
I encourage interested parties to see & drive the car in person.
Bidders with less than 5 on feedback score need to email me first before bidding.
This car was an extra play car/driving restoration project that now has to go due to divorce.
It is priced to sell, with No Reserve.
Please see my feedback and bid with confidence.

Detroit Auto Show prankster 'damages' hundreds of thousands of dollars of cars

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Obtaining credentials for an auto show is generally a pretty selective process, especially at one of the world's premier shows, like Geneva, Los Angeles or Detroit. That didn't stop online prankster Dennis Roady from getting credentialed for the 2015 North American International Auto Show on behalf of a Russian YouTube channel to cover the show. While he wasn't brought on strictly to cause mischief, Roady couldn't help but have some fun at the expense of the product specialists during the serious business of covering the show. He took to an app called "Dude, Your Car," which allows Apple iPhone users to take snaps of vehicles and then edit them to add some serious, but fake, dents and scratches. Naturally, the pranking session was caught on video, where you can enjoy the sight of poor product specialists freaking out over damage to vehicles ranging from the Mercedes-Maybach S600 to the Audi R8 and a lovely Dodge Challenger. Take a look. News Source: howtoPRANKitup via YouTube, The Detroit News Humor Detroit Auto Show Audi Dodge Mercedes-Benz Coupe Luxury Performance Videos Sedan 2015 Detroit Auto Show prank

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
