This 1970 Mercedes Benz 280SL automatic with a new and very cold a/c system is my wife's car. She has thoroughly enjoyed it, especially driving around on warm summer evenings.

The beautiful condition is reflected by the very few miles on the odometer. She is not the original owner, so I can't verify the correct mileage, however, it appears to be accurate. Recently the SL has had new tires, brake lines and has just returned from the local car detailer. The complete a/c unit has been replaced and it works, unlike other SL's which have the original unit. The red paint is about 4 years old and shows extremely well. There are a couple of miniscule highway chips but no dents or door dings. Can't even get them to show up on the pics.

The black canvas top is relatively new with only one very small wear mark on the lower driver side caused from putting the top up and down into the top boot. Rear window is nice and clear with no yellowing. It does have a red Pagoda top that matches the body paint. She said it has a piece of chrome missing but I couldn't determine what the missing piece is after a close inspection. The leather interior is a dark and deep maroon which contrasts well with the exterior paint. No tears, rub marks or wear locations. A few months ago she had the valves adjusted, had a tune up which included an oil/filter change.

This 280SL has the larger 6 cylinder and is quite peppy. Not a rocket, but then it is driven casually around town. The engine bay is nice and clean with no evidence of oil or other fluid leaks. It is being sold because she moved up to an SL500 and this is now an extra vehicle for us. Note that Connecticut is a non title state for cars over 25 years of age. The previous owners clear signed off title will be provided as will a notarized bill of sale.

I will entertain reasonable offers as long as the buyer has the cash available to conclude the transaction. No low ball offers will be entertained. A Paypal deposit of $500 will be required immediately when sold. A wire transfer for the balance is preferable but if a bank check is sent for payment it will have to clear before the SL will be delivered.

This is a wonderful SL and continues to increase in value each year. Better investment than real estate.

Good luck in your offers and I will respond to all questions.

Russia gives its Olympic medalists new Mercedes

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Russian medalists at the recently concluded Sochi Winter Olympics are being rewarded quite handsomely for their service to the Motherland. In addition to the $120,000 being handed out for each gold medal, the $76,000 being awarded for slivers and $52,000 given to bronze winners, now word has come out that each of Russia's medalists will be gifted a new Mercedes-Benz.
As with the prize amounts, the type of Mercedes offered was based on what sort of medal was won. Gold medalists got a new GL-Class, silver medalists were given an ML and bronze medalists were treated to a GLK. As prices for Mercedes are higher in Russia, the cheapest model, the GLK, was the equivalent of $59,500, according to The Moscow Times. The cars were handed out by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, pictured above with figure skating medalist Julia Lipnitskaia.
"I was a bit shocked at the car I was given," Anton Shipulin, a member of the gold-medal biathlon relay team, told RIA-Novosti. "Of course I knew what kind of model it would be, but I didn't totally believe it." For athletes not old enough to drive, like 15-year-old Lipnitskaia, their Mercedes will come complete with a driver.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
