1987 Mercedes Benz 300d on 2040-cars
Columbus, Ohio, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1987 Mercedes 300D. This is one of the cleanest and most mechanically sound 87 300Ds you will find in the northern states. Would make for a perfect WVO conversion. This car has seen very little snow in its entire life. I bought it in August 2012 after two Mercedes Diesel lovers owned it for a total of three years. The first 22 years of its life were with an elderly woman in Florida. Many repairs have been done since it was brought up from Florida. Listed below. I have receipts for many of them and full vehicle history reports. __________________________________________________________ The 300D has mainly been used around town for the last year, getting about 25mpg. The suspension is very tight and as you will see in the list below, it is pretty much all new. It needs at least a couple new tires, but this sale will come with three tires (I just put one on after a flat. The flat could be patched if wanted.) The previous owner put a set of four tires on matching Benz wheels. Those will be included. The transmission has good shift points, and pulls stongly, but shifts too firmly at times. The hvac system works very well, the a/c will freeze you out, and the heater works well. All buttons work correctly moving the air to where it is supposed to be. Even the rear headrest still flips down. While this car is an exceptionally clean driver, she still has some flaws, and this auction is as-is only. There will be no refunds or anything of that nature. I prefer that anyone bidding on the car actually come out to take a look at it. I am fully disclosing any issues this car has, whether they are big or small that I know of; however it is 25 years old and I cannot make any guarantees. Please ask any question you have. ______________________________________________________ Some things that are needed: Rear driver window does not go up or down. (Narrowed down to pinched wire in the pillar going to door) Front seat head rest motors run but don't move head rests Power antennae not functioning but makes noise Has a miss when fired up for the first time each day no matter what the temperature is. Has a few rust bubbles here and there, all smaller than a quarter. Dent in rear drivers quarter, shown in pictures. Passenger side rear wheel bearing will need to be replaced __________________________________________ Listed below are the replacement parts and work done over the last 3 years: Rebuilt injectors with Monarch nozzles Bosch glow plugs Rear subframe mounts and bushings, Lemforder Differential bushings and mount, Lemforder Sway bar links Both rear wheel carrier arms Bilstein shocks in rear Half shafts Lemforder motor mounts Driveshaft center support bearing and mount Battery Left rear wheel bearing Both front wheel bearings Left rear brake caliper, hard line and rubber line Windshield washer pump Belt tensioner Return lines on injectors Front end alignment General Altimax HP tires Steering filter and fluid change Defroster switch Filter and fluid change on transmission Rotella Synthetic oil every 5,000 miles Both front ball joints Idler Arm repair kit Tie-rod arms and ends both left and right front Block heater New expansion tank (old had become hard to see through after yellowing with age) Coolant flush and refill with new Zerex antifreeze designed for the Mercedes Alignment at Mercedes Dealership Rear brake pads Drivers side rear brake caliper Both Fuel filters changed every 10,000 About 14,000 miles on current General Altimax tires mounted on Mercedes Wheels, as well as about 8,000 on Cooper tires mounted on Mercedes Wheels.

Mercedes-Maybach SUV concept: Vision Ultimate Luxury interior teased
Wed, Apr 18 2018Mercedes-Maybach posted a teaser video of what it calls "the ultimate in luxury" last week, saying that the featured, yet-to-be-named vehicle would be presented in the Beijing Motor Show. Now there's a teaser sketch giving us a wider look of the concept's interior, as well as a name. The concept also has a name by now: the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury. We guess that might have been coming, even if the name isn't exactly concise. But, the accompanying release also informs us that the concept is a combination of a high-end sedan and an SUV, confirming that it is indeed the high-riding vehicle that's been rumored for a while. The interior sketch also shows a very wide center console with stylized grab handles, which suit the SUV dimensions and aesthetic, without being as trucklike as the Maybach G650 Landaulet's interior. As well as the lavish two-tone color scheme and the touch of wood on the door panel, the concept interior shows a wide color instrument display ahead of the driver. The gear selectors are paddle shifters next to the chunky steering wheel rim, and the controls seem to have been grouped on the wheel's spokes, leaving just a few switches on the dashboard. Autocar reports that the concept will be followed by a 2019 production version, slated to debut at the Los Angeles show at the end of this year. It would be based on the Mercedes-Benz GLS, but with a more bespoke design inside out, as hinted by the concept. Basing it on the GLS would mean Mercedes would be manufacturing it at the Tuscaloosa plant in Alabama, making it the first Maybach built in the U.S. Related Video: Image Credit: Mercedes-Maybach Beijing Motor Show Maybach Mercedes-Benz SUV Concept Cars Luxury mercedes-maybach
YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.
Autoblog drives to the Arctic Circle
Fri, 22 Mar 2013In Which Mercedes' Sprinter Becomes A Long-Distance Sherpa
In the wintery wilds of northern Alaska, even the cute little critters want to kill you.
As I am about to nod off on my long leg flight from Minneapolis to Anchorage ahead of driving to the Arctic Circle, the friendly twenty-something Alaskan knitting furiously in the seat next to me pauses and says, "When you're driving up there, don't open your windows." In the dead of winter? I hadn't planned on cruising alfresco, but her warning to keep the glazing snugged against the weatherstripping is one I would take to heart. She continues: "If you leave 'em open, a fox is liable to jump right in. There are lots of rabid foxes up there, and they leap into your car and just Go. To. Town." And here I was, thinking that a curious bear or maybe an ill-placed moose in the road was going to be my biggest potential four-legged threat. In the wintery wilds of northern Alaska, even the cute little critters want to kill you.
