This is a stunning 1987 Mercedes-Benz W124 300D Turbo diesel with a 3.0L inline 6 engine and a 4 speed automatic transmission. It is in amazing condition, and the interior is very well kept. The previous owners since new had installed a set of sheep seat covers so the drive and passenger seat are literally brand new, the original carpet under the floor mats looks like they have never been touched by shoes ever. It has been repainted, and the paint job was done very well, it shows very well. It was originally a light gold colour and the PO had changed it to the silver. The body is in amazing condition with no dents or dings and no rust what so ever. It was bought new in Illinois and was then brought to Albuquerque in 1990 where it has lived ever since. Even that it does have 213k miles on the odometer it starts every time, and runs great, it drives fantastic as well. The suspension is super tight, the steering is tight, the engine runs strong and pulls hard and the transmission shifts without any issues. It was very well maintained within its life, as the carfax shows which is very clean as well. The tires are decent shape yokohamas. The A/C and heater work great, the A/C was converted to R134a in 2002. All the power windows work, the vacuum door locks work great as well. Only thing that has issues is the sunroof doesn't open evenly. And it has an aftermarket Cd player radio. But all in all a very well kept clean and good looking car that gets great fuel mileage. It does have one crack on the dashboard that can be seen in the photos. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me, and the car is available to view and drive.  photo _MG_0627_zpscf95de70.jpg  photo _MG_0632_zps2e3147df.jpg  photo _MG_0634_zpsb2e96cc3.jpg  photo _MG_0636_zps630d0e35.jpg  photo _MG_0637_zps15364697.jpg  photo _MG_0604_zps9b1ae717.jpg  photo _MG_0602_zps3601c044.jpg  photo _MG_0605_zpsf8fa1e61.jpg  photo _MG_0606_zps3bfa27b5.jpg  photo _MG_0610_zps8d31c5d1.jpg  photo _MG_0613_zps435d90c7.jpg  photo _MG_0617_zpsc1b302ad.jpg  photo _MG_0620_zps773d1d62.jpg  photo _MG_0618_zps28eb9ae4.jpg  photo _MG_0615_zpsba6bdd7e.jpg  photo _MG_0612_zps3e276124.jpg  photo _MG_0611_zps36f1aaee.jpg  photo _MG_0623_zpseb2a3f54.jpg  photo _MG_0622_zps73d5011d.jpg  photo _MG_0621_zps21479a9d.jpg  photo 300D_zps86a3919e.jpg  photo 300D2_zps72bedad9.jpg  photo 300D3_zps0c09a9de.jpg  photo 300D4_zps299cd8a3.jpg  photo 300D5_zpsf6e36d81.jpg  photo 300D6_zps99940324.jpg

2016 German Grand Prix race recap: so-so racing, great questions

Mon, Aug 1 2016

We can summarize the 2016 German Grand Prix in one sentence: Mercedes-AMG Petronas driver Lewis Hamilton started second on the grid, passed pole-sitter and teammate Nico Rosberg before the first corner, and dominate to the finish. In fact, Hamilton turned his engine power output down on Lap 3 and still took the checkered flag seven seconds ahead of Red Bull driver Daniel Ricciardo. Ricciardo's teammate Max Verstappen crossed the line another six seconds back. Rosberg fell to fourth at the first corner and couldn't find the pace to reel in the Red Bulls. His questionable pass on Verstappen didn't help when the stewards penalized Rosberg five seconds; the overtake reminded us of Rosberg's move on teammate Hamilton in Austria. That penalty turned into eight seconds when the Mercedes-AMG Petronas stopwatch didn't work in the pits. Ferrari pilots Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen finished fifth and sixth. Those six drivers all started in the top six, too. Behind them, on Lap 28 of the 67-lap race the next four drivers were Valtteri Bottas in the Williams, Nico Hulkenberg in the Force India, and Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso in McLarens. Low fuel and old tires put the kibosh on Alonso's pace just four laps from the finish, allowing Force India's Sergio Perez to pass, rounding out the top ten. The issues up for debate during the four-week break are far more interesting than the weekend's race. As bad as Ferrari's day might have been – and we'll get to that – Rosberg probably took the biggest hit, losing the race before the first corner for the second weekend in a row and falling 19 points behind Hamilton. Rosberg won the first four races of the season, then the teammates tripped over one another in Spain. Hamilton's won six of the seven races since Spain, Rosberg's best result in that time is a second-place in Hungary. Hamilton turned his engine down on Lap 3 (!) because he's used his entire season's allotment of five turbochargers and five MGU-Ks. Those early-season gremlins now have him on edge of grid penalties. Unless Hamilton's momentum cools off in August, however, that reliability danger might be the only dent in his armor. Rosberg, who once led the Championship by 43 points, will surely drown in his thoughts – and maybe schnapps – over the summer break. Whatever the Italian word for "meditation" is, there'll be a lot of it at Ferrari during the F1 summer break.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S Wagon is one hot hauler [w/video]

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

Mentioned at the debut of the redesigned Mercedes-Benz E-Class back in January, Mercedes has finally pulled back the curtain on the E63 AMG S, which was on display at the New York Auto Show in wagon guise. The 2014 E63 AMG S ups the ante even more from a "base" E63 AMG, improving the car's performance and styling - not that it needed help with either to begin with.
Our favorite S-model upgrade is the added output tweaked out of the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 producing 577 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque, which represents a substantial gain of 27 hp and 59 lb-ft of torque over the stock E63. In wagon form, the E63 AMG S can run from 0-60 miles per hour in just 3.6 seconds and hit an electronically limited top speed of 186 mph. All 2014 E63 AMGs come with Mercedes' 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, but the S-Model adds in a limited-slip rear differential for improved performance.
Mercedes has made sure that the extra money being spent on the S-Model is instantly noticeable with slightly different design cues and black along with 10-spoke wheels with red brake calipers peeking through. Plenty of silver-chrome and high-gloss black accents finish off the exterior styling, while the interior adds Alcantara on the steering wheel, accent stitching on the leather and contrasting silver seat belts on models with the black interior.

Daimler and Geely collaborate to develop 'a highly efficient modular engine'

Wed, Nov 18 2020

BERLIN — German car maker Daimler said on Tuesday it will cooperate with China's Geely to build next-generation combustion engines for use in hybrid vehicles. Efforts to share development costs come as the growth potential for combustion engines faces the twin threat of the COVID-19 crisis and stricter fuel-efficiency and emission rules. "The companies plan to develop a highly efficient modular engine," a spokesman for Daimler said, adding that it would be used in hybrid drivetrains and manufactured in Europe and China. Geely declined to comment. The modular engine will be used in cars under different marques at Geely and Daimler, a person familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity as the companies are still in the early stages of developing the engine. News of the alliance was a surprise to Daimler's works council at its factory in Untertuerkheim, which specializes in electric and gasoline powertrain assembly. "We are speechless. There was not even a discussion about potential alternative manufacturing locations," said Michael Haeberle, the works council chief for Untertuerkheim. "We have the ability to build four-cylinder engines in Untertuerkheim, but there were no talks about it." Daimler said German factories will be retooled gradually to add electric drivetrains production. Most of the next-generation combustion engines will be made in China, business daily Handelsblatt reported. The alliance with Geely, which owns a 9.69% stake in Stuttgart-based Daimler, means that parts of Daimler's existing partnership with Renault could be pared back. A Renault source told Reuters that the Daimler-Geely project does not mean an end of cooperation between Daimler and Renault. Citing Daimler sources, Handelsblatt said the Daimler-Geely pact would save the German carmaker a "triple-digit million sum" — implying an amount above 100 million euros ($119 million) and less than 1 billion euros.
