Beautiful Mercedes 300 Diesel Turbo 4 door sedan.
Recent Engine rebuild by Auto Sport in Seattle. Auto Sport rebuilds engines for the local Mercedes Dealer as well as engines for collectible cars all over the North West. Engine had new liners, and pistons that were balanced on a gram scale. The factory engines are typically not well balanced. Balancing the pistons in these diesels makes them amazingly smooth. Recent replaced exhaust valves and valve guides. Front suspension has good ball joints, track rod mounts and a new steering box. The steering is tight with no play. The Michelin tires are relatively new. The front brakes are new. Transmission has been rebuilt by an expert and a shift kit installed so that shift for every gear occurs at the right place in the power band of the engine. The clutches, bands torque converter and B2 servo were replaced also. This car shifts and drives better than 95% of the 300 turbo diesels on the road. The rear axel bearings and seals are new including new trans axel boots. This is no easy job. Climate control works great has a new compressor, hoses and expansion valve and has been converted to R134a refrigerant. About 5 years ago the car underwent a full restoration paint job. The glass, doors trim, fenders. hood. trunk lid were all removed, stripped to white metal and painted with epoxy primer then painted with 11 coats of paint including 4 coats of base coat "color" then 3 coats of clear coat. Everything was put back together and using all new door gaskets, windshield gaskets and other rubber parts. Also included are a pair of mounted snow tires. Car has been well maintained and has maintenance records. This is a beautiful car with no rust or damage. |

Paul di Resta returns to DTM with Mercedes
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Some drivers manage to make the transition from one form of motor racing into another, and some run into trouble. Take Paul di Resta, for example. The promising young Scottish driver dominated Formula 3 racing in Europe in 2006, then moved over to Germany's hugely competitive DTM touring car series where he finished second in 2008, third in 2009 and first in 2010. But things didn't go as smoothly for Paul - cousin to retired Indy champion Dario Franchitti - when he moved in to Formula One with the Force India team.
In three years on the grid, he failed to score a single podium finish. Little surprise, then, that Force India opted not to renew his contract for this season. Left without a ride, di Resta is now going back to DTM with longtime supporter Mercedes-Benz, testing the new C-Class touring car today in Portugal. It's good news for Mercedes, which is celebrating 120 years in motor racing this season and, with 2005 champion Gary Paffett also on board, can now count two former champions on its DTM roster.
We wouldn't count Paul out of F1 for good, though. When he won the DTM title four years ago, he was also moonlighting as Force India's test driver, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him pull similar double-duty with the Mercedes F1 team (or another Benz-powered outfit) this year before spring-boarding back into grand prix racing in the future. At 27 years old, he may not have been the youngest driver on the grid this year, but he's still got a good few years ahead of him.
Mercedes testing C-Class plug-in hybrid modes in Germany
Wed, 07 May 2014Testing appears to be underway for what would be the first Mercedes-Benz C-Class with a hybrid powertrain. We can see a pair of the prototypes undergoing testing in Germany, with one, a C-Class Wagon, still heavily clad in camouflage and featuring a more noticeable outlet on the passenger side of its rear bumper.
There's also a more production-looking sedan, which features a not-so-discreet flap over its rear-bumper outlet. It's difficult to speculate on power outputs for this fuel-sipping C-Class, although our spies seem to think that this car will feature some combination of a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor, although just which four is unclear (note, we wouldn't mind if MB fit its 2.0-liter turbo with some batteries and motors). Regardless, the four-pot/electric motor seems like a pretty reasonable combo, although it probably means that Mercedes won't be challenging the six-cylinder-powered system of the BMW ActiveHybrid3 any time soon.
When the plug-in C-Class arrives later this year as a 2015 model, it will likely offer a full range of driving modes, including both gas or electric, only, as well as a more traditional hybrid mode.
Chris Harris and David Coulthard wring out a Mercedes Fintail at the N"urburgring
Thu, 17 Oct 2013If there's one thing we've learned from the latest video from Drive, it's that the combination of Chris Harris and David Coulthard will produce some very quotable moments. Take this exchange, for example.
DC: "We are by some way the slowest."
CH: "But we're in a class of three cars, apparently."
