ESSENTIALLY I AM GIVING THIS CAR AWAY I JUST WANT TO RECOOP MY INVESTMENT IF POSSIBLE.
(  i would keep it but i have too many vehicles and im moving into a smaller place with no room to put them all.)
Clean Title in hand and ready to deal...........Make an offer!  Motivated seller.

BIODIESEL READY: it has a spare aluminium tank in the trunk with updated fuel lines making an ideal mixed fuel source vehicle.
this is a bio fuelers dream as it needs NO mods given the fuel system upgrade. THESE MOTORS WERE MEANT TO RUN ON BIOFUELS
  I bought it and have ran on straight veg oil and the owner before me did as well.  i just have no time anymore to collect oils, and now no space to deal refine/filter or store fuels...... RESEARCH THE 300 SERIES DIESEL THEY ARE BULLETPROOF AND MEANT TO GO 800,000 MILES!!!!!

CONDITION: This car is in GREAT shape for its age.
The interior has been well kept and there are no wear or fade in leather.
the woodgrain panels are aged and some of the buttons are a little beat up but
everything is functional and there.   Senior owned and always garaged 
exterior has signs of age and some dings and nicks, nothing major, all the trim is there...
paint is about 6 out of 10 it. all the surface areas were repainted it was a cheap fix
but it has some gloss left and is nice enough for its age.  Body is straight, never wrecked!
It has a nice aftermarket CD AM/FMstereo, its no boombox but it works well


REPAIRS ETC. (have records) ---mostly optional but essential repairs to get many more miles--

  >>> engine was completely rebuilt at 150k PLUS ALL the major tuning listed

  >>> A/C has been completely rebuilt with a new compressor and lines.  AC BLOWS COLD

  >>> turbo has been completely rebuilt and gate re-tuned for better pick-up

  >>> it has about 10k on new tires = nice z-rated hankook mileage plus 40k radials 60%tread left

  >>> power door locks have been rebuilt with all new lines.

  >>> brand new oil pan gasket that fixed oil leaks.

  >>> Valve adjustment and timing chain replaced when valve cover gaskets were replaced.

  >>> several hoses replaced: cooler lines = injector hoses = PCV hoses

  >>> motor mounts replaced with OEM factory parts.

  >>> oil cooler replaced and cooling system flushed

  >>> auxiliary fan replaced to ensure the coolest running temperature

THE BAD : 
  
 The transmission has been serviced and inspected. tested A-OK.  NO slipping! just sometimes jumps into 2nd gear, not always, the
 auto shop as well as online forums said this was normal for older benz diesels....

the odometer stopped working recently,  it is a cheap fix but my mechanic has been unable to locate the part. I have
estimated the mileage based on fuel used and average MPG calculated when the ODO worked.....

The sunroof doesnt work anymore and is sealed shut (bad seal) doesnt leak anymore but doesnt open, not a big deal really

The power antenna stop working and i put an ugly soft one on there looks funky but gets reception, all that matters to me

The glovebox is finicky to latch closed, but works fine.

Cruise control doesn't work, never has... i dont use it because it was mainly city driven.

SO as you can see the BAD list is pretty minor and it has been well kept(senior owned) and has plenty of GO left in her. 
BEST OFFERS CONSIDERED NO LOW BALLERS PLEASE AS YOU CAN SEE MY PRICE IS FAIR ( NADA VALUE = $8300)
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL/TEXT OR EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS......

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class caught totally undisguised

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Based on the lightly camouflaged spy shots of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class we've seen lately, it hasn't taken a vivid imagination to picture what the next iteration of this big luxury sedan will look like. Even so, we now we have our first unobstructed views of the redesigned S-Class, codenamed W222, as it has just been caught out flaunting for some promo shots.
The first thing we notice about the new S-Class design is the disappearance of the last generation's flared wheel arches. Yet the new design adds even more character with bodyside creases similar to the CLS-Class and some elements reminiscent of 2007's F700 Concept, including the massive grille and vertical LED taillights. Other key details include a large panoramic roof and the narrow exhaust outlets, but the large LED-trimmed headlights and the aggressive front fascia are probably the biggest departure from the current design. With these spy shots, we also catch a blurry shot of the interior, but we've seen a practically uncovered look at the new S-Class' cabin back in January.
Overall, the next S-Class sports an expressive and premium new look, but as far as all-new designs go, it's quite conservative - a move no doubt fitting for these lean financial times.

2019 BMW M850i xDrive: How it compares on paper with other GT coupes

Wed, Jul 11 2018

Although the hot new vehicles for the rich seem to mainly comprise SUVs and supercars, the neglected luxury GT coupe segment is starting to see some life again. The latest to add a spark to this set is the 2019 BMW M850i xDrive. It goes on sale later this year, and revives the 8 Series that's been dead since the 1990s. The first version available to Americans will be one with a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8, with other versions likely following. Before it launches, we wanted to get a lay of the grand-touring land and see how the new BMW stacks up to the competition in performance, practicality and price. While some of these models have higher-performance or more-affordable iterations, we picked the versions that would be the closest match to this 8 Series model. They include the 2019 Lexus LC 500, 2018 Mercedes-Benz SL 550, 2018 Mercedes-Benz S 560 Coupe and the 2018 Maserati GranTurismo. We will also provide some short summaries on our experiences with these cars, but to get a full picture of each model, be sure to check out their full reviews. And if you want to compare any of these cars with models you don't see here, be sure to try out our car comparison tool. Engines, transmissions and performance On paper, the BMW M850i xDrive is clearly the performer of the group. It has the most power and torque at 523 horsepower and 553 pound-feet. Coupled with all-wheel-drive and an eight-speed automatic, the car is able to overcome its relatively portly 4,478-pound curb weight to hit 60 mph in a scant 3.6 seconds. That's more than half a second quicker than the lightest car in the group, the Mercedes-Benz SL550, which weighs 4,012 pounds. The other three vehicles are in the low- to mid-4-second range to 60 mph. Though the Maserati is the slowest to 60 mph, it does boast the highest top speed of 186 mph. The M850i and SL 550 are electronically limited to 155 mph, while the Lexus is limited to 168 mph. The Mercedes S 560 has the lowest top speed at an electronically limited 130 mph. View 52 Photos Of interest is that there's a 50/50 split among these cars between using a pair of turbos, and having none at all. The BMW and Mercedes resort to forced induction, whereas the Lexus and Maserati choose to stay naturally aspirated. This is likely why the Germans break 500 pound-feet of torque, while the others don't make it to 400. Also interesting is the spread of gear quantity. The Maserati has just six ratios to choose from, and the Lexus has a whopping 10.

Geely plans to launch hundreds of satellites to guide autonomous cars

Wed, Mar 4 2020

BEIJING — China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group said on Tuesday it was investing 2.27 billion yuan ($326 million) in a new satellite manufacturing plant, where it plans to build low-orbit satellites to provide more accurate data for self-driving cars. Geely, one of China's most internationally-known companies due to its investments in Daimler, Volvo and Proton, is building the facilities in Taizhou, where it has car plants. It aims to produce 500 satellites a year by around 2025, with around 300 highly-skilled staff, it said in a statement. Geely's technology development arm, Geely Technology Group, launched Geespace to research, launch, and operate low-orbit satellites in 2018. Geespace will begin the launch of its commercial low-orbit satellite network by the end of this year, Geely said. Geely said low-orbit satellites would offer high speed internet connectivity, precise navigation, and cloud computing capabilities to cars with autonomous driving technology. Geely, which sold 2.18 million cars last year, is among global automakers from Tesla to Toyota to pursue autonomous driving technologies. It is building low-orbit satellites to meet demand for high-speed connectivity capabilities that can deliver fast software updates. From around 2025, Geely's cars will have more functions to connect to the satellites. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
