Mercedes-Benz's mid-size line of sedans were built on the W124 chassis from 1984 to 1995. For the 1994 model year the E420 was the base model V-8 engine sedan, with the E500 being slotted just above it. The E420 was only available in sedan body style, while the inline, six cylinder powered E320 was produced as a sedan, coupe and convertible

The E420 derives its power from a 4.2-liter version of Mercedes venerable M119 V-8 engine. This naturally aspirated power-plant has a 32-valve DOHC design with a 3.62-inch bore, 3.11-inch stroke and a compression ratio of 11 to 1. This German-engineered and produced engine generates 275 hp at 5,700 rpm and 295 foot-pounds of torque at 3,900 rpm. Mercedes pairs this motor to a four-speed automatic gearbox and does not offer a manual transmission in this model.

The V-8 engine E420 has a curb weight of 3,745 lbs., which is 220 more than the V6 powered E320 sedan. This mid-size Mercedes-Benz sits on a 110.2-inch wheelbase with a 59.5-inch front track and a 56.3-inch rear track. The body of the E420 has an overall length of 187.2 inches, width of 68.5 inches and height of 56.3 inches. Mercedes E420 offers its driver a 37-foot turning diameter and the car rolls on a set of 195/65R15 size tires.

The Mercedes E420 cabin offers seating for five people. Occupants of this mid-size sedan's front seats are treated to 36.9 inches of headroom, 41.7 inches of legroom, 55.9 inches of shoulder room and 53 inches of hip room. Passengers in this vehicle's rear seats are afforded 36.9 inches of headroom, 33.5 inches of legroom, 55.7 inches of shoulder room and 55.4 inches of hip room.

The E420's combination of rear-wheel drive, 4.2-liter, V-8 engine and four-speed automatic transmission yields 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. Fuel is drawn from an 18.5-gallon tank.

This is truly an incredible machine. In 1994 it sold for over $52,000.00. I have had it for about 3 years, but I have not driven it much. As you can see in the pictures there are a few large scratches that she received when the shelter I put up to cover her blew over and scratched her. The fuse is out for the sun roof but it does work, some times it was picky about closing so my wife asked me to pull the fuse. The car is not running right now, but she runs like a rocket and there are no problems with the engine or the trans or the rear-end. This car has not rattles and is extremely solid. VERY FAST and FUN TO DRIVE!!! The AC blower was giving me a problem so I purchased a new one and it worked great, but a few weeks later it stopped blowing (AC was working but would not blow) so I worked on it some more and I could get it to work but it would only blow for a short time and then it would stop. I tested the blower off of the car and it works. After working on the AC for a few hours I gave up and put her back together so I could take her to someone else to work on her. She had been running all day but when I put her all back together she would not start. I have been told that it has to be something simple. This GREAT car was my extra car and a toy so at that time she did not make it to the top of my TO DO LIST. I put the cover over her and put her to bed. The interior is like new with no rips or ware showing on the seats at all. The carpets are in great shape ect. The electric seats work great. She has brand new tires that only have about 500 miles on them. I was going to part her out but I could not bring myself to do it to such a great driving machine, not to mention the time it would take to do it and I do not have the tools that would be needed to do the job. With a little bit of TLC and not much money this will be a great car for someone that wants a real head turner. She no longer has a battery in her. She does have a CD changer in the trunk but I could not get it to work but I never really worked on it, the original radio is working. I do love this car and I am sure I will regret getting rid of her. Have fun and bid often!!!

Paul di Resta returns to DTM with Mercedes

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Some drivers manage to make the transition from one form of motor racing into another, and some run into trouble. Take Paul di Resta, for example. The promising young Scottish driver dominated Formula 3 racing in Europe in 2006, then moved over to Germany's hugely competitive DTM touring car series where he finished second in 2008, third in 2009 and first in 2010. But things didn't go as smoothly for Paul - cousin to retired Indy champion Dario Franchitti - when he moved in to Formula One with the Force India team.
In three years on the grid, he failed to score a single podium finish. Little surprise, then, that Force India opted not to renew his contract for this season. Left without a ride, di Resta is now going back to DTM with longtime supporter Mercedes-Benz, testing the new C-Class touring car today in Portugal. It's good news for Mercedes, which is celebrating 120 years in motor racing this season and, with 2005 champion Gary Paffett also on board, can now count two former champions on its DTM roster.
We wouldn't count Paul out of F1 for good, though. When he won the DTM title four years ago, he was also moonlighting as Force India's test driver, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him pull similar double-duty with the Mercedes F1 team (or another Benz-powered outfit) this year before spring-boarding back into grand prix racing in the future. At 27 years old, he may not have been the youngest driver on the grid this year, but he's still got a good few years ahead of him.

Race Recap: Singapore Grand Prix is about a safety car and submission

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

The Singapore Formula One Grand Prix is the Monaco GP of the Orient - a weekend known more for its glamour and time-slot than on-track action, with a temporary circuit that punishes every mistake, usually terminally.
Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas got the best of Free Practice 1, opening the curtain on a possible resurgence of Silver Arrows performance. By the time qualifying was done, though, it was his teammate Nico Rosberg who lined up second on the grid, followed by Romain Grosjean with a beautiful performance in the Lotus, Mark Webber in the Infiniti Red Bull, and Hamilton all the way back in fifth. Behind them were Felipe Massa outqualifying Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button getting the McLaren into eighth, Daniel Ricciardo with another good Q3 effort to get into ninth, and the shocker of Esteban Gutiérrez getting his Sauber into the top ten for the first time this year.
At the front of the pack was Sebastian Vettel. Again. But he was only ahead of Rosberg by a single tenth of a second...

Ecclestone wonders if F1's upcoming turbo V6s should get augmented sound [w/videos]

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

While every team on the Formula One grid is worried about making a good showing in this year's championship at the same time as they develop a brand-new car for next year's championship, Bernie Ecclestone and F1 circuit promoters have a different concern: how next year's cars will sound. The current cars use 2.4-liter, naturally-aspirated V8s that can reach 18,000 revolutions per minute and employ dual exhaust, next year's engine formula calls for 1.4-liter turbocharged V6s that are capped at 15,000 rpm and are constrained to a single exhaust outlet. Ecclestone and promoters like Ron Walker believe the new engines sound like lawnmowers and that the less thrilling audio will keep people from coming to races. If Walker's Australian Grand Prix really is shelling out almost $57 million to hold the race, every ticket counts. As a fix, according to a report in Autoweek, Ecclestone "suggests that the only way to guarantee [a good sound] may be to artificially adjust the tone of the V6s."
However, neither the manufacturers nor the governing body of F1, the FIA, think there will be a problem. Ecclestone fears that if the manufacturers "don't get it right" they'll simply leave the sport, but the only three carmakers and engine builders left next year, Renault (its 2014 "power unit" is pictured), Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari are so embedded that it would stretch belief to think they'd leave the table over an audio hiccup - if said hiccup even occurs. And frankly, these issues always precede changes to engine formulas, as they did when the formula switched from V10 to V8; fans, though, are probably less focused on the engines and more on the mandated standardization of the sport and the spec-series overtones that have come with it.
No one knows yet what next year's engines will sound like, but we've assembled a few videos below to help us all start guessing. The first is an engine check on an Eighties-era John Player Special Renault with a 1.5-liter V6 turbo, after that is Ayrton Senna qualifying in 1986 in the Lotus 98T that also had a 1.5-liter V6 turbo, then you'll find a short with a manufactured range of potential V6 engine notes, and then the sound of turbocharged V6 Indycars testing last year at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Any, or none of them, could be Formula One's future.
