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!

2017 Aston Marin Lagonda could live on Mercedes M-Class platform

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

A few weeks ago, we brought you news from the launch of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante that the British brand, which is formally known as Aston Martin Lagonda, was still planning on going ahead with a Lagonda-badged crossover. Now comes word that that vehicle could very well be based on a Mercedes-Benz M-Class.
When the first Lagonda Concept debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, it sat on a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class platform, some four years before Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG deal was inked. And with that partnership, which will see Aston Martin gain access to AMG electrics and "bespoke, V8 powertrains," the opportunities for platform sharing are many.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, the boss of Aston Martin, told the UK's AutoCar, "I look at what Porsche is doing with the 911 as its core business and then it is able to do models like the Cayenne based on the Volkswagen Touareg. It is good business." We've said many times that we'll tolerate exotic CUVs and SUVs if it means keeping the beloved core models alive, which has been the case with Porsche. We see no reason Aston Martin wouldn't be able to do the same.

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.
