 Your bidding on a very low mileage, clean Mercedes-Benz.  Here is the story behind this car.  I'm currently the second owner of this vehicle.  The first person lived in New Jersey and leased it for three years and put approx. 10,000 miles on the car.  In 2010 the car was involved in an accident that required the front quarter panel, bumper, and I believe the hood, to be replaced.  The car was repaired with MB parts and was repaired very well.  There are no signs that this car was ever in an accident.  It runs perfectly with no squeaks or rattles.  Now for the frame/structural issue listed on Carfax.  Mercedes ran this car through the auction at which time the auction "reported" there was structural/frame damage.  Before I purchased the car I had it inspected to see the extent of the damage.  The inspection revealed that there wasn't any structural damage, but since it was reported that way Carfax can not remove that comment from their report.  I felt comfortable with the car and it drove perfectly so I bought it.  I've driven it for two years without a single mechanical issue.  The only service that has been performed has been the annual maintenance items (performed at MB Dealer) and they updated a module in the radio for the MBRACE system.   I put new Michelin tires on at 15,000 miles primarily because I didn't like the Continentals that came as OEM tires.  The Michelin's are a much better riding tire.  As I was preparing to sell the vehicle I didn't want to mislead anyone about the structure of this car so I had it inspected for a second time at a local auto repair center here in Arkansas.  They also confirmed that there isn't any structural damage to this car.  (I've attached a copy of their report along with the pictures)  I've tried to contact Carfax to get this issue resolved, but there isn't anything they can do.  So even though I have much  respect for Carfax, I realize they can't inspect each car and if there is an issue reported in error they still have to include it on the report.  That's the whole story behind the car.  Since the car has this "record" I realize that I can't sell it for what it really should go for.  I bought it at a discounted rate and I'm willing to sell it for a discounted rate as well.  I'm also willing to buy the car back within one week if the buyer were to uncover any structural damage that existed prior to the sale.  (Shipping would be the buyers responsibility)  This CLK 550 had an MSRP over $75,000 new.  It has every option available including the power trunk, A/C Seats, Windscreen, Nav, Permium 2 Pkg, and Bluetooth.  I'm only asking $25,900 and will listen to any reasonable offer.  If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to give me a call.  This is an amazing car for the money.  If you always wanted to own a Mercedes here is your chance without breaking the bank. 

Thanks for looking,

Tony  870-404-4051

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year

Tue, Dec 16 2014

There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.
