1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL

 

This flagship Mercedes-Benz is one of the last of those that were hand-built entirely in Germany!  The fit, finish and quality of this car is extraordinary, and represents the foundation on which Mercedes-Benz built its legendary reputation!

 

If you’re looking for a nice, clean, well-maintained and reliable Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL, this is it!

 

This is a No Reserve auction, meaning that the highest bidder at the end of the auction wins, regardless of the final price!

 

This 560 SEL is loaded with options including a powerful 279 HP 5.6L V8 engine, Automatic Transmission, Automatic Climate Control, Air Conditioning, Leather 8-way Memory Power Front Seats and Dual Stage Heat, Leather Power Reclining Rear Seats with Heat, Driver and Passenger Front Airbags, Four wheel ABS Disc Brakes, Power Sliding Sunroof, Cruise Control, Power Steering, Power Door Locks, Power Windows, Chrome Wheels, Premium Sound System with DVD Player, CD Changer, Tinted Glass, and Anti-Theft Alarm.

 

The body is in very good condition, as is depicted in the several, unedited pictures below.  The car has always been garaged-kept and pampered.  The only spot of rust that can be found is a small blister by the front, passenger-side headlight.  Other than this one, isolated spot, there is no other rust on the car.  This is true for the underside of the car as well, which is completely rust-free.

 

The interior is clean and inviting.  All of the switches and electronics function exactly as they should.  The original radio was replaced with a touch-screen radio/CD/DVD player, which also has a built-in back-up camera (not connected).  Additionally, there is a six-disc CD changer in the trunk that is controlled with an in-dash control unit as well.  The only blemish is a small wear spot in the left bolster of the driver’s seat.  Other than this, the interior is practically flawless.   

 

This car was primarily used for daily, long, highway commutes, as the mileage accurately reflects.  It is not uncommon for 560’s to accumulate well in excess of 500k miles, with proper maintenance, which this car has consistently received.  There are no warning lights displayed on the dash and the engine starts at the turn of the key, is quiet, steady and delivers smooth power throughout the entire rev range.  All of the wheels and tires are well-balanced and the car drives perfectly straight down the road.  The brakes were just serviced, including new rear brake calipers and pads, and firmly stop the car without any shaking or vibration.  

Overall, this is an extremely sturdy, thoroughly maintained and very well cared for example of the legendary Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL.  I wouldn’t hesitate to get into this car today and drive it anywhere!

 

A non-refundable $500 deposit by credit/debit card or bank account through PayPal is due within 24 hours after the close of the auction.  The remaining balance must be paid within five business days via bank wire transfer, or cash.  This car is being sold AS-IS, with no warranty stated or implied in any way.  I’m happy to help with shipping arrangements, but this will ultimately be the responsibility of the winning bidder.  If you should have any additional questions about this car that haven’t been covered in the description, please ask me.  The car is available to be seen and test driven, which I fully encourage; however, please arrange to do this before the auction is completed.


Please note that I have blocked buyers from bidding that do not have a Paypal account.  If you do not have a Paypal account, but would like to bid, please contact me.

 

Thank you for looking and best of luck in the auction!

Firing of M-B boss upheld

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.

How could a lifted Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG be more awesome? Add an axle

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

We are fully confident in saying that this will be the most amazing thing you see all day. First of all, it's a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen - in AMG spec, no less. And it's being shown off in high-definition video glory, blasting through the desert, jumping over sand dunes, and generally being awesome. But here's the kicker: It has six wheels. Three axles. And they're all driven. Holy $%!#.
Under the hood is AMG's usual 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, and total output is rated at 536 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. That's impressive and all, but do keep in mind that the G63 6x6 weighs in at 8,322 pounds or, you know, the weight of two E-Class sedans. Combine that with its 18 inches of ground clearance, 37-inch tires and five locking differentials and you've got a vehicle capable of, well, everything you've ever imagined or will ever imagine for the rest of your life.
But the goodness doesn't stop once you open the doors. Oh, no. This thing is fit for a king - or a sheik, more appropriately - with ultimately luxurious seating for four. The rear bench seat has been removed in favor of two bucket seats with a fixed console in the middle, and the rear seats have been moved back beyond the usual B pillar to allow for more legroom.

Mercedes has already booked 30k orders for new S-Class

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

When Toyota snags 30,000 Corolla orders over a three-month span, it's entirely possible we're in the midst of a global economic collapse and that the end is nigh. That's because the scale for Toyota is so very large. Mercedes-Benz, on the other hand, operates on a much smaller scale, particularly when we talk about its higher-end models, like the S-Class.
In 2012, Mercedes sold 65,000 of its flagship sedans in Germany and the EU. That's 178 units per day, for 365 days. Based on that, you can imagine the excitement at Stuttgart when it accepted 30,000 orders for the new S-Class in just three months. That's an average of 333 per day on a continent with a notoriously shaky economy. Now, admittedly, this enthusiasm could wane as the refitted S-Class becomes more common and Mercedes achieves market saturation in Europe's many chauffeur and livery services, but Mercedes isn't choosing to look at it that way.
"The new S-Class has already jumped back into the lead in terms of new vehicle registrations in Germany and its neighboring European countries," Mercedes-Benz head of sales and marketing, Ola Kaellenius, said in a statement last week.
