CAR WILL NEED TO BE TOWED UPON PURCHASE. CAN NOT BE DRIVEN DUE TO GASOLINE LEAK."

Up for purchase is a Mercedes 300TE 4-matic wagon.  The car is currently undrivable due to a gas line leak near the fuel tank.  There are several items wrong with this car, but I also believe that there are some miles left in this old man given a little bit of love.  This car would make either a great project car for a mechanic or a great car for parts.  I would love to see him be a drivable beauty again!  


A Brief History:  
I purchased the car a couple of years ago from a woman that said this was her daily driver.  There were several undisclosed issues with the car that I later discovered.  I've made several repairs myself over the course of driving the car as my daily driver for about a year and a half.  After the gas line leak, I decided to go with a different vehicle.  The car has sat for the last 7 months so the battery died, but it did start after we jumped it this last week.  Since my purchase, I have replaced the tires, replaced the gas tank, and replaced the power steering pump.  I have my repair documents and those of the previous owner available upon purchase.  

The Good & The Bad: 
Oil leak in the head gasket-  I put a head gasket leak additive in the engine and it drove without issue until I stopped driving it due to the gas line leak, so over a year.
AC does not blow cold air but the heater does work.
Steering on the car is sometimes "funny".  I've had the tires replaced and rotated and there seems to be a bit too much play in the steering wheel since then.  
Overall body condition of the car is fair.  There is a dent in the passenger side back door that is shown in the pictures.  I purchased the car with this dent.
Once again, the fuel line leaks near the gas tank.  So when you start the car, gasoline is spewing from near the gas tank.  
The driver side door handle does not work from the outside but it does from the inside.
Cosmetically, the hinge on the passenger visor broke.   There is cracking on the console and normal wear and tear to the buttons throughout the vehicle. 
There is a tear on the driver side seat, as seen in the photos. 
The fabric covering around the door has come unglued on the passenger side. 
The transmission actually works well!  Yay!
The car is solid and a tank on the road.  You will certainly feel safe driving this wagon. 
The paint is in good condition with minor nicks from age. 
Did I mention the heat works?
It has a sunroof and it works!!
Carpeting is in good condition & the First Aid Kit is complete and original. 
It has a new gas tank, front brake pads, & power steering pump.

This car is available for pick up only.  Buyer to arrange pick up and transport.  Again, the car will need to be towed due to the fuel line leak.  Upon purchase, the car can be started to show that it runs.  The car is sold "AS IS" and if you have any questions before purchasing, please email.  I'm happy to share as much as I know about the car and I want to be honest about it's current condition.  Payment can be made through PayPal or upon pick up.  If upon pick up, I can accept cash or certified check.  

If you would like additional photos, please email me and I will send the link.
Thanks!!

Does Alex Rodriguez' Mercedes dealership have a PR problem?

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Alex Rodriguez, in case you haven't heard, is seemingly the new Most Hated Man In Baseball, ostensibly replacing commissioner Bud Selig (for now). Rodriguez was slammed with a 211-game suspension due to his role in the MLB's latest steroid scandal in which "A-Roid," as fans have taken to calling the former superstar, was cited with steroid use and attempts to hide his involvement by "engaging in a course of conduct intended to obstruct and frustrate" the investigation, according to the MLB's official report.
Why is this on a car site, then? Because Rodriguez' name is attached Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz in League City, TX. An Ad Age report cites Mercedes-Benz USA in saying that A-Rod owns "about half'" of the dealership. Mercedes, for what it's worth, isn't going to any to any lengths to distance itself from its dealership or its controversial namesake, saying, "We never promoted the fact that A-Rod owned a dealership, so there's really nothing to 'distance' ourselves from. And since his activity is not illegal but rather prohibited by MLB, there's nothing actionable here."
With the scandal still a fresh piece of news and A-Rod's pending appeal, it's difficult to tell what sort of effect, if any, his name will have on the dealership's sales. Ad Age contacted the GM of Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz to get the dealership's view, but no calls were returned. According to Mercedes, any name change is up to Rodriguez and his partner(s) at the dealership. Somehow, though, we think A-Rod has other things to worry about beyond his dealership's name.

Mercedes S-Class Magic Body Control ad is clucking awesome

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

This is a new ad from Mercedes-Benz. At no point does it show an automobile. Instead, it stars animals, but not the sort you might normally see in car commercial. This ad is all about chickens. It is bizarre, to say the least, with Diana Ross and the Supremes belting it out in the background, but it all kind of comes together when you realize just what Mercedes is hawking (yeah, pun intended).
It's for the manufacturer's Magic Body Control, found on the new S-Class. The system basically analyzes the road and prepares the suspension accordingly, leading to a ride that is, in the words of our own Chris Paukert "nothing short of spooky." You can read about it in our full review of the 2014 S550. Take a look below for the 53-second spot.
