This beautiful 36-year old Mercedes 450SL Convertible Roadster scores 7 to 7.5 out of 10!  Second owner car.  The original owner, not to be disclosed, maintained this car meticulously from its original point of sale, September 23, 1977, at Colonial Imports in Glendale, CA.  Maintenance records from Beverly Hills, LTD, Beverly Hills, CA and then from L & M Motors, Los Angeles, CA are in maintenance book. 


This car has been garaged, and not driven, for the past 8 years.  The car is in overall very nice shape, but needs to be buffed out as it has minor oxidation.  There is evidence of minor paint repair on the right front fender and a very small dent in the rear bumper.  The car is not perfect, but very nice and all original.  There is a small crack in drivers seat (see photo), but otherwise the interior is immaculate.  There is a very small leak on the differential cover, but no other leaks have been noted or seen.  Car will start for a short period of time, but fuel pump is weak.  Everything works well and car was driven frequently prior to being garaged.  It has a new battery and oil change, but would recommend cleaning the fuel system and a new fuel pump.  The tires have approximately 80% tread, but show dry rot and cracking so should be replaced for safety.  

This car has spent its entire life in dry southern California until January 2013 when it was delivered to our garage in southern Oregon.  

We were told that the top has never been removed and does not appear to have been, so we imagine that the convertible top is in like new condition, but have not verified.  As you can see, the original car cover has two holes, one on the drivers mirror and one on top.  

For sale locally for $9,500/OBO.  

NADA shows low retail of $10,500; average retail $19,400 and high retail $27,600.  

As you can see, this car is in extremely nice condition, between average and high retail, and is priced to sell.

PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO FULFILL YOUR OBLIGATIONS.
RE-LISTED BECAUSE LAST WINNING BIDDER DID NOT PAY.

Recharge Wrap-Up: No new Smart Roadster, Africa to UK on one tank, Duke's efficient axial engine [w/videos]

Sat, Jul 19 2014

Smart will not make another generation of the Roadster, but a Smart SUV might be in the cards. According to Smart's CEO, Annette Winkler, "The Roadster isn't a profitable business case. Everybody is keen on the car, but nobody wants to pay the bill." What Car? states that Smart is likely planning a baby SUV to take on the Nissan Juke and its ilk. But for the immediate future, Winkler says Smart "must focus on how we can maximize potential of the Fortwo and Forfour. That is strategy number one." Read more over at What Car?. A Mercedes-Benz E300 Bluetec Hybrid made the 1,223-mile trek from Africa to the UK on just one tank of fuel. Driven by Andrew Frankel of Autocar, the diesel hybrid left Tangier, Morocco with a full tank of gas (using the optional 80-liter fuel tank), and arrived in Goodwood with the car indicating 100 miles of range left. Frankel and his co-driver averaged 61.2 miles per gallon (73.6 mpg UK) on the intercontinental journey through four countries, despite elevation changes and a traffic jam. See the first video below for more information, or check out the article at Carscoops. Duke Engines promises simplicity and efficiency from the axial engine it's developing. Rather than lining up the cylinders, this engine arranges them in a circle, which allows Duke to avoid unnecessary weight. The five-cylinder, four-stroke motor manages the same amount of powerstrokes per revolution as a standard six-cylinder mill, but weighs 30 percent less. It also has much fewer parts, says Duke. Its high compression ratios mean more power with less fuel, which adds up to more efficiency and fewer emissions. The second of the two videos below, which we first found over at Sploid, explains Duke's axial engine. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Nissan edges out Tesla for most ZEV credits sold in California

Wed, Oct 22 2014

When it comes to California zero-emissions vehicle (ZEV) credits last year, Nissan was selling and Mercedes-Benz was buying. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) put out its ZEV-credits numbers for the year that ended September 30, which is why we now know that Nissan, maker of the battery-electric Leaf, transferred 663.6 ZEV credits out of its account last year. That just edged out the 650.195 credits that Tesla sold. Chrysler's Fiat affiliate was a distant third, but its limited-production Fiat 500E was still able to generate some ZEV credits and then transfer out 235.2 of them. We don't know how much the buyers paid for these credits, since those details are kept private. It's an ever-changing rulebook over at CARB, anyway. On the flip side, Mercedes-Benz had to buy 663.6 ZEV credits in order to comply with clean vehicle-sales mandates in the most populous US state, indicative of the German automaker's gas-guzzling tendencies. Honda has cars that get better fuel economy than your average Benz, but its plug-in vehicles represent just a fraction of total sales and so it had to shell out for 542.5 ZEV credits. Chrysler-Fiat basically tread water, since the 237.8 ZEV credits it required for compliance canceled out gains on the other side of the ledger. Those Dodge Ram pickup trucks don't exactly help matters. Last year, Tesla sold the most ZEV credits while GM purchased the most. Overall, Californians bought about 3.5 million vehicles for the year that ended September 30, including 38,000 battery-electric vehicles, 30,000 plug-in hybrids and 570,000 conventional hybrids. The longstanding ZEV program means that California now has more than 100,000 ZEVs on its roads. Read this for more details on ZEV credit transfers in California.
