We have a bunch of Mercedes, but this one is the first of a few I am selling.
My girlfriend decided she wanted one after she rode around in my "78 300D.
So, she decided on this one, then decided that she liked my old 240D better,
so I it to her. Now, this car is not needed.

I bought this car about 6 months ago and had it on the road for the first three.

Here are all the details:
As soon as I bought it, I had to do the following:
-Replace the flex tube on the exhaust.
-Put 4 new tires on.
-Adjust the valves.
That's about it, other than change the oil and do a general servicing.

Since, then, I had the vacuum modulator go bad (stopped holding pressure), I noticed this after it had been sitting for 3 months.I installed a new one and I adjusted it enough to make sure it shifts, IT WILL NEED TO BE properly adjusted.  It shifts 2-4 without effort (for those who don't know, most Benz's start in 2nd gear and the kickdown is used for quick downshifts). It needs to be adjusted to get the kickdown working.

Now, here are the good and bad lists:

The GOOD:
-Absolutely no rust
-The interior is average, not bad, just not great.
-The engine runs without issue (good cold starts, very quick)
-The turbo is working.
-The exhaust is good (the CC is gutted, it was clogged-who needs a CC on a diesel?). I replaced the flex tube.
-The entire vacuum system is intact. NO ONE HAS screwed with it.
-The tires all all new.
-New wiper blades.
-All electronics work on the interior, right down to the headrests!
-It passed inspection recently (see sticker on windshield and is good for some time)
-Drives Smoothly
-Everything on the dash works, except the odometer.


The bad:
-No hood ornament or truck ornament.
-Even though the interior is average, it's still average
-No stereo.I pulled mine out in order to sell the car.
-The AC does not work. Don't ask me, I don;t use AC so I've never cared. The compressor is there.
-Sometimes, the heat blows cool (probably the monovalve).
-No hood ornament.
-No Benz symbol on the truck.
-The clear coat has peeled in places (see pics).
-The gas pedal is gone (I have one that I'll give with the car), it broke, as all old Benz pedals do. The accelerator arm is there, so no problem with driving it.

I will have this car available at my business in Winchester, VA upon request. Just call and make an appointment if you would like to see it.

Also, feel free to call me with questions. My daytime number is 540-667-4777. My cell is 540-532-0250. Ask for Erik
Email me directly: kerouac.down@gmail.com

I bought this car for a dime, so I'm starting the bidding at what I paid for it, before I put money into it.
The Buy it Now price includes what I have spent on the car.

I require a $500 deposit at auctions end. You MUST pick this car up within 10 Days.
If it will take you longer, you must make arrangements.

I make ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, but I deem this car to be safe and it runs well.
Good luck, this is a very good deal.

2021 Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 is business class without the jet lag

Thu, Nov 21 2019

Mercedes-AMG demonstrated how sporty a mammoth SUV can be by unveiling the 2021 GLS 63 S at the 2019 Los Angeles Auto Show. Across the Pacific, at the Guangzhou auto show in China, Mercedes-Maybach revealed another GLS variant that puts an unabashed focus on comfort. The 2021 GLS 600 ends years of rumors by finally taking Maybach into the SUV segment. (If you don't count the limited-edition G 650 Landaulet). It's not a standalone model developed from the ground up, and it's in no way related to the electric Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury concept introduced in 2018. It's a second-generation GLS dressed up in a Hugo Boss suit. Stylists spruced up the front end with Maybach's chromed waterfall grille and mesh inserts in the lower part of the bumper. An abundance of chrome trim (including big slabs of it in on the B-pillars) and Maybach emblems on the D-pillars further set the SUV apart from its non-Maybach-badged sibling. Buyers can order a two-tone paint job at an extra cost. 6.8-foot-long running boards automatically extend from under the body about a second after one of the passengers opens a door. Designers took advantage of the cavernous interior to replace the second- and third-row seats with a pair of business class-like chairs that offer heated, ventilated, massaging and reclining functions. Maybach developed the GLS with chauffeur-driven buyers in mind, so the passengers traveling in the back benefit from their own infotainment system with wireless headphones, folding tablets, wireless device chargers, plus heated and cooled cupholders. Alternatively, buyers can order the GLS as a five-seater with a three-person rear bench. The GLS 600 receives the twin-turbocharged, 4.0-liter V8 engine that's omnipresent in the Mercedes range. It delivers 550 horsepower from 6,000 to 6,500 rpm and 538 pound-feet of torque between 2,500 and 5,000 rpm in this application, and it spins the four wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive. Mercedes pegs its zero-to-60-mph time at 4.8 seconds. The standard 48-volt mild hybrid system briefly gives the GLS 600 an additional 21 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. It also sends the kinetic energy it recuperates to the battery pack while braking or coasting, and powers a technology named E-Active Body Control which scans the road ahead and adjusts the suspension as needed if it detects a pothole, a bump or another obstacle.

Queens man knows how to party, disrupts Mets game with van

Fri, Jun 24 2016

A New Yorker and all-around true American hero took his weekend festivities a little too far and landed himself in front of a judge last week. According to NBC New York, Nelson Hidalgo drove his unassuming Sprinter to Citi Field on Saturday, June 18, around 10:45 p.m. While the Mets were getting thrashed by the Braves, Hidalgo pulled up to the intersection of 127th street and 35th avenue. Hiding within the van's cargo area were 80 speakers driven by powerful amps, around $20,000 worth of car audio. Hidalgo opened the Sprinter's rear doors, deployed his amazing speaker system, cracked a cold Coors Light, and unleashed hell. Noise complaints immediately started flooding in to the police, including one from the Mets' bullpen. Soon, Hidalgo amassed a sizable crowd who had come to rock out and marvel at the lunacy of the Sprinter's sound system. The NYPD showed up eventually and, undaunted by noise and the crowd, clapped the irons on poor Nelson. The Sprinter was impounded and Hildago was charged with second-degree criminal nuisance, general noise prohibition, disorderly conduct, and obstructing the driver's view. "I know it's illegal, but it's the weekend," he explained to the cops as they hauled him away. Once they had him in custody, the NYPD realized that Hidalgo was the person they had been looking for in connection with absurdly loud music coming from various city junkyards in the dead of night. Hidalgo, who has no prior record, spent the night in the slammer but was released the next morning with no bail on the promise that he return for his court date on August 1. Related Video:
