1984 380sl Mercedes Benz on 2040-cars
Whittier, California, United States
|
Up for sale is a beautiful 1984 Mercedes Benz 380SL Convertible Hardtop from California. It has not been driven very much over the past few years and the owners have decided to sell for this reason. This car has been garage kept and the paint is in near perfect condition. It has been well maintained and we are looking for a new owner who will appreciate the condition and enjoy the car as much as the current owners have over the past several years.
The good stuff about this classic: This is a beautiful convertible hardtop with cream color paint and deep tan interior. The paint and body are in very good condition. Since this is a California car, there are no signs of rust on the body. The interior is equally as nice considering the age, but as shown in the picture, the driver’s door panel has a small split in it, near the arm rest. I’m told the door panels may still be available from Mercedes. This car was well maintained by the dealer as well as two independent specialty Mercedes shops. We have all the service records for the maintenance history. The Transmission shifts well and the car has no drive-train noise. The brakes feel good but should be inspected before you put the car into service. All the gauges work but the odometer stopped reading last year. The owner has only put about 200 miles on the car since the odometer stopped reading. The radio is original and works but the power antenna does not go up. What the car needs: The trunk needs a replacement spring to hold it up. The tires are aged and show cracking should be replaced. The chrome on the factory rims is good, some pitting, no rust, just need a good polishing. It will need the antenna repaired or replaced. The odometer needs to be repaired. The engine smokes. This just started recently and the cause has not been confirmed. As it is smoking, it is being sold at a reduced price and is sold in “as-is” condition and well below market value. The repair will need to be made before you smog it. This would be an excellent car if the engine was in top condition. You would have only basic service work to do aside from the engine smoking and have a near perfect 30 year old classic to drive daily. The owners have asked that I handle the sale. If you have any questions please, “ask before you bid”. There are no refunds or cancellations after the purchase has been made. If you are not local to Orange County, California, we will work with you to arrange the shipment of the car. You are responsible for arranging the shipping company and paying for all shipping charges. |

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
Mercedes Concept GLA45 AMG is ready to run
Wed, 20 Nov 2013This is the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA45 AMG, and what we mean by that is, "This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG." Mercedes has just unveiled the liveried 'concept' at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, giving potential customers a very good look at the newest lunatic in the AMG asylum - a 355-horsepower, 332-pound-foot crossover that uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the CLA45 AMG and Europe's A45 AMG.
Joined with a seven-speed, AMG Speedshift dual-clutch transmission and an AMG Performance 4Matic all-wheel-drive system, Mercedes promises a sub-five-second run to 60 miles per hour. That's not just quick for a crossover, that's quick full stop.
That sleek, lifted body has also been tweaked by the minds at AMG's Affalterbach facility. A new rear spoiler, side sills and front clip are the primary aerodynamic tweaks. Aesthetically, AMG has fitted the requisite "Turbo" badges, gloss-black accents (including exhaust tips and roof rails) and a set of 21-inch, AMG-spec alloy wheels to round out the overall package. Based on the spy shots we've seen, expect slightly toned down aerodynamics when the GLA45 AMG arrives in showrooms.
Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
