1980 Mercedes 450SL convertible. V8, Automatic project car. I am selling this for a friend who had to move out of state for work and did not have time to sell or a place to keep it. He bought car as it is now for a project with his son, but that did not happen. I am not a car expert, and not a Mercedes expert, so info I give will be as best I can describe it. You are welcome to have your expert look at car if you wish. Car seems to be complete. If you look through the photos you should see most of parts that have been removed. Body looks like it is in good condition, meaning it looks straight, hood, trunk, and doors seem to close good. I see no evidence of rust problems, but I have not had it on a lift or had it checked out. My understanding is this is an Arizona car, so usually rust is minimal. Car is a rolling chassis, drive train is out of car. Interior: Door panels look pretty fair, seats are in need of being redone, also carpet needs replacing. It looks like all the parts for instrument panel, switches etc are in boxes and all seem to be there including Speedo, Tach etc.. If it were mine I would redo interior. But it looks like all the original parts are there. Engine was out of car when he bought it. Old owner said motor was good, but then why was manifold and top end of motor off? The rest has not been taken apart it sits like it was bought. Same with automatic trans. Exhaust system is there, gas tank, radiator, drive shaft, Brake booster etc. Wheels look to be original, tires look ok, but I have no idea of age.Includes a container with a lot of bolts, washers, nuts, and screws. Car is in Mesa, Arizona and purchaser will have to pick up here. Car has not been registered since sold in 2007. Title has been signed and dated, but left open for new purchaser. Also have bill of sales both from original owner and individual my friend purchased from. Seller has right to remove car from auction prior to auction end.

Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023
Mon, Sep 12 2022Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVs like the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like the BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in. But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below. Best Subcompact Luxury SUV  |  Best Compact Luxury SUV  |  Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row) Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out: Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better: Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded, non-luxury compact SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.   Volvo XC40 Why it stands out: More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better: Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.
