Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Mechanically in very good shape; some scratches and very minor rust. Paint is still shiny. Engine is very powerful, pulls strong. Transmission shifts fine but requires finesse unless you are trying to push it to the limit. A few cosmetic details but this car is solid. One piece of trim missing on passenger side front; lower trim is inside car and just needs to be re-installed I think. Driver's seat has a rough area that could use a patch. Carpet is excellent, trunk and rear interiors are immaculate. Original AM/FM stereo readout is a little worn out but sounds good and play tapes perfectly. Engine compartment is excellent. Hard top and soft top both are in great shape. Third brake light (on trunk) has damage."
This is the classic Mercedes-Benz convertible that was produced for decades with minor modifications. A great car from a great brand. This two-seater has a surprising amount of power for a "little car" because it's got an eight-cylinder engine. Wish I didn't have to sell it, but I got laid off from my job and need the money.
Red interior on the car holds up well with the rare metallic tan "Champagne" exterior color. The carpet is in great shape, and the back "rear seat" storage area and trunk look brand new therefore hardly used for any reason.
Comes with a hard top (also Champagne color) that has glass side windows and a glass rear window. It lifts off with a special tool -- included -- and there's still the soft top (standard black color) which is in great condition too if you find yourself needing it.
Air conditioner blows cold right from the get-go. The controls aren't as fancy as modern day Mercedes, but that was then, this is now. A few lights on the dashboard need attention but my mechanic checked out the functionality and wasn't concerned.
The car has a lot life left in it. Clearly it needs a little maintenance though, and most of what it needs is some cosmetics after all this years. There are some light scratches in many places, but before doing a whole paintjob, I'd fix some of the very minor rust edges and some bubbling that is apparent. It's a solid car but after this many years of use, it's bound to have issues like this. Very inexpensive work needed; even a beginner could handle it.
Note that the paint is still in great shape except for the scratches which it's hard to see in the photos. The areas where it needs paint are on the passenger side and you can see in those photos. However it's easy to see how shiny the rest of the paint still is, because if you look at the photo of the hood, for example, the refection of a yellow-leaved tree on the left side of the hood is reflected throughout. (You can see the same reflection in the chrome of the bumper on the left side.)

Mercedes surprised Hamilton with this steering wheel message
Tue, Nov 25 2014Lewis Hamilton had much to celebrate at the end of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this past weekend. Not only did he win the race in commanding form (the 33rd in his career to make him the fifth most successful in Formula One history), but he also scored enough points (double on the season finale this year) to outpace his teammate and chief rival to win the world championship. Having already been crowned champion in 2008, that makes him one of only sixteen drivers to have won multiple world titles. It's a point his team at Mercedes didn't want him to miss, so on the cool-down lap at the end of the race, his pit crew radioed him the message "default 44" – an instruction that triggered this image to appear on the display in the middle of his steering wheel. Apparently Lewis, with plenty else on his mind (like getting his car back to the parc ferme in one piece and with enough fuel), didn't notice what was flashing in front of him. Superimposed, as you can see, over an image of Hamilton as a young lad still in karts is Lewis' name alongside those of the other two-time world champs: Jim Clark, Graham Hill, Emerson Fittipaldi, Alberto Ascari, Fernando Alonso and Mika Hakkinen. (Never mind those who've scored more than two titles.) Intriguingly, Hakkinen is the only other one among them to have won either of his titles under Mercedes power like Lewis did, though Fangio won two of his five titles motivated by Benz engines.
Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG spied in Sweden
Wed, 16 Jan 2013We've spotted the all-new Mercedes-Benz GLA testing a couple times in recent months in getting closer to production form and shedding camouflage, but now it looks like we're see our first look at the AMG version of this compact crossover. The low ride height might trick some into thinking that we're just seeing the already-confirmed A45 AMG out testing, but the unique beltline, rear doors and side windows confirm this is some version of the GLA-Class.
What makes us so confident that this is the AMG model? Well, for starters, this prototype has beefier brakes with cross-drilled front and rear rotors and bigger front calipers, but it also sports dual exhaust outlets poking through the rear fascia and a suspension that has been lowered considerably. Our spy shooters said that this car's exhaust note made it almost certainly an AMG model.
Just to be clear, the GLA AMG will not be powered by a 4.5-liter engine. The closely related A45 AMG will carry the "45" in its name to celebrate the first 45 years of AMG, and our sources seem to indicate the AMG version of the GLA will do the same. We're expecting this sporty crossover to produce as much as 350 horsepower from its AMG-tuned four-cylinder engine, and like the all-new E63 AMG, it could very well come standard with 4Matic all-wheel drive.
