This is a One of a kind prototype Mercedes GT430 built by Roriel Inc. There will only be 50 built... This particular vehicle is a 2000 Mercedes CLK 430.My wife and I bought it from a dealer about 2 years ago. It has a fresh blue color which was painted about a month ago. The color gets darker depending on the amount of light. It has a prototype cowl hood with vented heat extractors along the side, prototype front lip, side scoops, rear diffuser, and wing. This car is not for shy individuals..I get so many compliments everytime I drive it from women, men at every age and from every color of the rainbow. Only Elvis in a spaceship would get more attention!!! The car is an automatic and has a v8, the interior is gray. It has a touchscreen am/fm/cd/dvd radio that is Pandora, Bluetooth, and Satellite ready. It has a/v inputs and remote included. The a/c is cold and all of the options you would expect from Mercedes Benz are present. The car was given H&R springs for an even more sporty stance.The car has been well maintained and no problems have gone unfixed. Recent service include replacement of both air filters, new battery, new alternator, and replacment of driver's window motor. All work was done by European Car specialists in Charlotte NC (Eurowise).It has 149k and drives like 14k. The imperfections include a cup holder which is missing which pops up, even though you could never tell because the holder is beneath a wood grain panel. From getting in and out of the drivers seat there are some cracks on the edges. And both seats have stitching that is inch seperated from each other all which is not that noticable and easily repaired by any person who has knowledge of interior restoration.The manual key does not work with the trunk lock for whatever reason, but the remote key opens it just fine, also the switch on the inside of the car to the trunk works fine. With the good and the bad you will not find a more unique nice looking Mercedes on ebay for the price... or on any other site for that matter. And the car runs great!! The Buyer is responsible for pickup and delivery of the vehicle..Forms of payment include certified bank check, paypal or cash if in person.If interested I would love to answer any questions you have in a timely matter, thank you for your interest, Have a nice day. ;)

France formally moves to ban Mercedes vehicles using contested refrigerant
Wed, 31 Jul 2013That didn't take long. Shortly after a French administrative court gave the French government a ten-day window to reconsider its ban on registrations of Mercedes-Benz A-, B- and CLA-Class cars using the prohibited R134a refrigerant, the government cited an EU directive to formalize banning the sale of the cars. The country's environmental ministry said that registrations "will remain forbidden in France as long as the company does not to conform to European regulations," meaning so long as they do not use the approved R1234yf refrigerant.
Daimler had won the administrative court decision by challenging France's application of a "safeguard" provision in which the EU allows a country to block sales of cars that would "seriously harm the environment." In spite of Daimler's victory, France has cited that very provision as basis for the continuation of the ban.
Daimler got permission from Germany's KBA federal motor authority to keep selling cars with the coolant banned by EU politicians, and is using that national permission as the right to sell the cars throughout Europe. Meanwhile, above that battle, German politicians are asking the EU to let Mercedes sell the cars in France while the KBA does more testing, at the same time as the EU is threatening Germany with repercussions if it doesn't bring the KBA and Daimler into line.

Lewis Hamilton on pole in France, Sebastian Vettel only seventh
Sat, Jun 22 2019LE CASTELLET, France — Lewis Hamilton seized pole position for the French Grand Prix in track record time as Mercedes, chasing their 10th successive win, swept the front row of the grid in dominant fashion on Saturday. The Formula One world championship leader was 0.286 seconds quicker than team mate Valtteri Bottas. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc qualified third with team mate Sebastian Vettel a distant seventh on a distinctly off day for the German. The pole, in a time of one minute 28.319 seconds, was a record-extending 86th of Hamilton's career and his third of the season. "I'm happy that I got the potential out of the car, the team did a fantastic job," said five-times world champion Hamilton, last year's winner from pole at Le Castellet's Paul Ricard circuit. "We've just been chipping away at improving the set-up of the car," added the Briton, who is 29 points clear of Bottas after seven races — all won by the pair. Hamilton also triumphed in the last two of 2018. Bottas was fastest in the second phase of qualifying but could not match Hamilton's sizzling pace when it mattered in the final shoot-out. "The wind changed direction and there was a couple of corners my line didn't work and I had to work it out but Lewis had a better lap," said the Finn. Mercedes have looked to be in a class of their own all weekend, with Hamilton or Bottas fastest in every practice session with Leclerc, rather than Vettel, consistently the best of the rest. Vettel struggled, backing out of his first hot lap and then failing to string together all the sectors smoothly on his second attempt. "I don't know what happened, I lost so much momentum there was no point to finish that lap," said the German, who starts behind the Renault-powered McLarens of British rookie Lando Norris (fifth) and Spaniard Carlos Sainz (sixth). "Some laps it felt good and others it didn't. I didn't get the best out of the car but it was difficult for me, but some laps I didn't have he grip I had before." Vettel's time of 1:29.799 was eighth tenths of a second slower than Leclerc's best. Leclerc, who starts with Red Bull's Max Verstappen alongside, asked the team over the radio to get Vettel to speed up but the Monegasque said his lap had not been compromised. Australian Daniel Ricciardo starts eighth for Renault and Red Bull's Pierre Gasly lines up ninth for his home race with Italian Antonio Giovinazzi 10th for Alfa Romeo.
