2000 Mercedes G500 Gwagen on 2040-cars
Waycross, Georgia, United States
|
This is a beautiful original 2000 G500. Built by hand in Austria and designed for 1,000,000+ rugged miles, this Gwagen is just getting broken in with 134,000 miles. The pictures tell the story. It has never been damaged, has original paint and interior, and even has the original floor mats covering the factory carpet that has never been touched. I bought it to ship to Costa Rica where we have a second home. Our plans have changed and as a result, we must sell the G. It has had impeccable maintenance and even was taken to Wolfgang in NY for its 100,000 mile service. It has new tires, a fold down ORC winch bumper imported from Germany, 110AC available through an inverter, a rechargeable Maglight, and a backup proximity warning system. The spare tire sports a secure steel locker which stores a heavy duty tow strap, jumper cables, tow wiring, and the tow bar. This is a much more practical setup than the shiny spare covers that do nothing. In addition to these accessories, the G also has its original jack, tools, emergency flasher, emergency triangle, and all original books and records. The in dash stereo system includes a 7" popup screen with GPS, Bluetooth, DVD player for both movies and music, and an Android platform for internet. It is housed in an enclosed aircraft hangar, is kept clean, full of fuel, and ready to go. I did a lot of research before deciding on this vehicle and know you will be pleased with it. It is a serious 4WD vehicle that turns heads wherever it goes. Bid with confidence.

Clark Gable's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing doesn't sell, then does sell for $1.85 million [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013How much extra value does previous celebrity ownership add to of a car? Really, there's no way to know until the car in question hits the auction block and bidders start raising their hands. In the case of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing you see above, the celebrity owner is none other than Clark Gable, who purchased it new. After Gable's death in 1960, the car changed hands a few times before settling with Charles Wood in 1975.
A high-dollar restoration was performed in 1989, and period accessories added by Gable himself were kept in place, including the Rudge knock-off wheels and Nardi steering wheel. Any Mercedes-Benz 300SL is worth a big chunk of money. In the case of Clark Gable's old Gullwing, the bidding stalled at $1.9 million here at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. As one of the 5000-series cars, this 300SL carried a reserve, and a bit of after-the-fact dealmaking saw the car change hands for $1.85 million.

2014 Mercedes SL and SLK add small expansion to Takata airbag recall
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Mercedes-Benz is the latest automaker to be affected by Takata's massive airbag recall. The company has announced a voluntary recall campaign on a small number of model-year 2014 SLK- and SL-Class roadsters.
In Mercedes' case, 300 vehicles are affected, 200 of which are in the hands of customers. According to spokesperson Donna Boland, the affected roadsters were built between March and April of this year.
The issue, which is apparently the fault of one of Takata's subcontractors, rests with some improperly installed fasteners, which could keep the airbag from performing the way it's supposed to. According to Boland, Mercedes isn't sure what, if any, injuries the recalled airbags could cause, but simply claims there's an increased risk in these particular vehicles. There's been no reported instances of the faulty airbags deploying on a customer and the original issue was found in a production test.

Wed, 06 Mar 2013Mercedes Makes A Mighty Little Sedan
We got overexcited when the W203 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan came out in 2001, calling it the "Baby Benz" when it really wasn't. We knew that, too, but our enthusiasm for a model more like the old 190 of the '80s was so strong that we were willing to stretch the first-gen C-Class to fit that mold. Today, the C-Class has done what all German premium cars do: grown in size. In this case, grown to satisfy the market intentions of the previous E-Class.
There was the tall A-Class sold from 1998 through 2010, but we never considered that a serious small Benz in the proper spirit, nor was it ever offered in the US. Regardless, we've been craving a smaller, premium, sexy sedan all the while.
