I bought this car back in 2010 and it had 68,150 miles on it. That means in the last 4 years only 2,216 miles were added to it. It runs great, I just don't use it that often. I am the 3rd owner of it. The original owner bought it in Florida and it was moved here to PA, bought by the second and then by me.
As you can see in the pictures below, it's not a flawless show car- although it is an all original Mercedes. The car was stored in a garage it's entire life and has no rust on it. It was recently inspected here in PA. The whole car was repainted in the original factory color. The paint job was done by the previous owners brother who is a professional car painter at a new car dealership. The only blemish on it is where it got dinged in a parking lot. (See picture) I have the touch up paint in the original color that you can take with you. As far as the roof: I had the soft top replaced with a brand new top. The plastic on the back is clear and can be seen through. The hard top is currently residing in my basement. I took it off the day I got the car since I wanted to run it as a convertible all the time. It too was repainted along with the rest of the car and is flawless. I have both original roof tools too. The car runs great as I mentioned. All miles are original. The air conditioning needs work, that is to say it doesn't function. When I bought the car, I didn't care about this since I wanted a convertible anyhow. I have the original manual and first aid kit as well. I bought a new radio for it, so it has a CD player now. The antenna itself retracts, but not all the way. (see picture) Please keep in mind this is a 35 year old car. For instance, the weatherstripping is functional and good, but it isn't going to look like it just rolled off the lot in Miami in 1979. Also, the armrest is loose and could be fixed or replaced fairly easily. The driver seat is very comfortable and shows the wear you might expect given the age. Apparently there weren't many passengers since that seat is in great shape. Anyone can come and inspect the car but must do that before bidding. You can ask me for a picture of anything on the car and I'll either email it to you or add it to the pictures on here. There is no warranty expressed or implied. Again, please email any questions! |

Sunday Drive: And now for something completely different
Sun, Dec 17 2017This past week played host to a wide assortment of automotive news, highlighted by our first drive of the 2018 Volvo XC40. The Swedish crossover is targeted at young, successful Millennials, but it offers cool styling, fun dynamics, and all of today's must-have technology, so we think it ought to appeal to a much wider swath of the automotive marketplace. From there we answer the question, "What are hard on the outside and soft on the inside?" as we take a look at the next Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV. We expect the German automaker's flagship luxury SUV to remain boxy on the outside, but the interior is going to be soft, supple, and luxurious. And then there's the Honda Clarity Plug-in Hybrid, which starts at starts at $34,290 and boasts 212 total system horsepower, 232 pound-feet of torque, 47 miles of electric driving range, and a total range of 340 miles. EPA rates it at 110 MPGe in EV mode, and 44 city/40 highway/42 combined overall. We compare it to other plug-ins like the Chevy Volt and Toyota Prius Prime. And finally we have some more spy photos of the 2019 Ram 1500. It doesn't have a traditional crosshair grille, but it's got plenty of chrome and an attractive upright stance that's sure to tempt future truck buyers looking for some sophistication to go with their work gloves.

Mercedes takes VW Westfalia Camper idea upscale with new Marco Polo
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz revealed the new V-Class. Slotting in below the popular Sprinter, the new V-Class replaced both the Viano and Vito upon its debut at the Geneva Motor Show. But Mercedes isn't quite done with it just yet. At the upcoming Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf, Germany, Mercedes will reveal the Marco Polo - a versatile, stylish and decidedly contemporary take on the classic camper van.
Named after the famous Italian explorer, the Marco Polo was converted by Westfalia, an outfit which you might more closely associate with classic VW camper vans but which Daimler absorbed over a decade ago. Offering, according to the press release below, "a maximum of opportunities to be independent, free and spontaneous," the Marco Polo sleeps four thanks to the rear bench that electrically folds flat into a bed and the second berth under the pop-top. The flexible interior is decked out like you'd expect a modern Mercedes to be, with ambient LED lighting as well as wood, metal and piano black trim.
It's got an onboard kitchenette with two gas burners, a sink and fridge with a 10 gallons of fresh water and an even bigger waste tank. All that gear is shlepped around by a choice of four-cylinder turbodiesel engines ranging in output from 136 to 190 horsepower. The relatively compact form boasts a turning circle similar to a full-size sedan and a height designed to fit into most garages and car washes. All of which just might make us reconsider the appeal of traveling by camper van.
Mercedes CLA45 AMG Racing is ready for a spot on the grid
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz trotted out its CLA45 AMG-based racer at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We first showed you the sedan in the deluge of news and reveals that precedes most good auto shows, and were blown away by the car, formally known as the CLA45 AMG Racing Series.
We were strolling by the Mercedes stand, and figured we'd pop in and take a look at the new racer and its carbon-fiber body panels, gutted interior, and race-sourced aero parts. It's a looker, both as a road car and a track weapon. It's not clear what series the CLA45 AMG will qualify for, although it does seem like a shoe-in for the World Touring Car Championship. Let us know what you think of the CLA racer down in the comments. In the meantime, we've got a full gallery of live images up top, along with the stock images that were posted last week on the Mercedes-Benz Facebook page.
