For your consideration, the last
of the true German made luxury classics. The flag ship for the 1991
model year is considered by collectors to be the finest example of Mercedes engineering and refinement. After 1991 these cars were
made either here in America or in Canada. This was the very last year
they were built in Germany.
This 22 year old beauty has been lovingly maintained over the years
and has averaged less than 5,000 miles a year over her life time. She
is one of, (if not they) nicest 560 SEL's on the East Coast. Included
is the original window sticker and every single maintenance record
dating back to the original purchase. The car is from Las Vegas
(originally purchased from Fletcher Jones Imports, Las Vegas NV). She
has only been in the Philadelphia area for 2 years, always garage kept.
Runs great, drives very smoothly, perfect daily driver for the
discerning individual who desires the status and luxury that comes from
only the finest Mercedes Benz ever built.
EVERY THING works on this car as it should. When I purchased her
in Feb of 2013 I had her completely gone over by a Mercedes factory
authorized master mechanic and fixed or replaced any and all issues that
can sometimes problematic after 20 years. I purchased this same model
new in 1991 and drove it for over 250K miles before parting with her and
it was one of few cars I have every regretted parting with. This one
was bought with the full intention of driving her and keeping her for
many more years. My ONLY reason for selling her is that I am now
restoring two classic cars for my own private collection and will not
have the garage space for her over the winter. I can't stand the idea of
her sitting outside. So it is time for some one else to enjoy her
comforts.
Work recently completed:
- Rear leveling system replaced ($4000 worth of part and labor)
- New Shocks
- Brakes replaced
- Fan Motor Clutch
- New fuel tank (old tank had a pin hole leak and did not want to just patch it)
- New injectors (yes she is a full injected V-8...that's what the "E" in SEL stands for).
- New Heater Core (heat and air blow hot in winter, icy cold in summer).
- Transmission completely rebuilt like new
- Complete tune up with Spark plugs, wires and rotor and distributor replaced
- New battery
- New dark window tinting (PA legal).
- Professionally detailed every 2 weeks. Paint is original and in VERY good shape.
- Pennsylvania inspection (safety + emissions) good through December of 2013
The one and only "flaw" in the car is a minor tear in the window
pillar vinyl. A common problem for this make and year and can easily be
repaired by an upholsterer. I have included a photo of this.
This was a sentimental restoration for me and I know that I have
more in her than she will sell for (almost $12K). My reserve is set at
just over 1/2 that amount and she is worth every penny of that. I have
listed her on EBAY twice before and every one is looking to steal this
car for $3500-$4000. That's not going to happen. Hemmings Motor news
recently had an article on this year,,make and model stating "the 1991
Mercedes 560 SEL is the epitome of classic Mercedes Benz style,
prestige, comfort and luxury". "True collectors have missed out on the
potential of the finest example of flag ship engineering that Mercedes
has produced in over 50 year". The car's value has stayed constant over
the last 5 year but will only increase in years to come.
Buyers must have a current Pay-Pal account and will be responsible
for a $500 deposit with in 48 hours of the end of bidding. The rest
will be due as either a bank check or wire transfer on time of pick up
or delivery. I am more than happy assist in finding a reputable
shipper (I have shipped many cars over the last 20 years) , BUT shipping
costs will be solely on the buyer.
I do have the car listed locally and reserve the right to end this
auction at any time. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have either via email or call 484-639-2717. Enjoy the bidding, and more important enjoy the car. Thank you On Oct-22-13 at 19:44:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I've received several emails letting me know of a mistake in this listing regarding the exterior color of this vehicle. The correct color of the car is indeed white, as shown in the picture. I apologize for the mistake of listing it as black at the top of the listing in the description part of the listing. Once again, the vehicle is WHITE with gray interior. |

World Car Of The Year down to its final four
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
Mercedes caught testing stretched E-Class Maybach
Fri, Aug 21 2015The Mercedes-Maybach S600 won't be the only vehicle to wear the hyphenated name of two of the world's automotive luxury greats. That hulking S-Class will soon be joined by an E-Class variant, which should offer the same touch of subtle luxury as its big brother. At least, that's what we're guessing based on the latest round of spy photos, showing a stretched E-Class with some very telling camouflage. Pay attention, as our spies did, to the rear doors and C-pillar. Like the Maybach S600, the E-Class model features a larger quarter window, although unlike the S, the doors here look to be a bit larger than your usual E550 or E250. Also take note of the heavy tint on those rear windows. It's likely there to obscure whatever sumptuous hides and warm woods Maybach has fitted to the typically business-class interior. While the interior materials are likely to see sweeping changes, expect Mercedes to treat the exterior with a much gentler touch. There'll probably be some unique wheels and C-pillar-mounted Maybach badges, like what we've already seen on the S600. Check out the full round of spy photos up top, and stay tuned for more on the latest Mercedes-Maybach. Related Video:
Mercedes to roll out C63 AMG late in 2014 with 4.0L V8
Mon, 30 Dec 2013The new 2014 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is upon us, launching initially in North America with turbocharged four-cylinder C300 4Matic and six-cylinder C400 4Matic flavors. But that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the vast array of powertrain configurations that will be offered in the new C-Class in markets around the world. Orders will soon be rolling in for gasoline, hybrid and diesel engines with four, six or eight cylinders, driving the rear wheels or all four, with the seven-speed automatic transmission soon to be replaced by a new nine-speed unit. But what enthusiasts are really looking forward to is the next C63 AMG.
As BMW has done with the M3 (and new M4), Mercedes has gradually ratcheted up the cylinder count in its AMG C-Class, graduating from the 3.6-liter V6 in the original C36 AMG to the 4.3-liter V8 in the C43 AMG, then the 5.5-liter V8 in the C55 AMG before going the distance with the sublime 6.2-liter V8 in the C63 AMG. Like its rivals, Mercedes is expected to use turbochargers as a replacement for displacement in the next model, but unlike its Bavarian rival, it won't be losing any cylinders in the process.
Skipping the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 that has gone on to power other AMG models, the next C63 AMG is still expected to introduce a new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing between 450 and 500 horsepower. It'll also reportedly keep the same seven-speed automatic transmission (instead of switching to the new nine-speed), but the jury's still out on whether it'll come with rear- or all-wheel drive (or offer buyers the choice). The downsized V8 - codenamed M177 - is then expected to find its way into other models, but the C-Class will be the first to get it when it arrives before the end of the new year ahead.
