Mercedes Benz 450SLC 1979 - (2) owners (CA), prior to me in which I bought the car about 1 year ago, kept garaged and put less than 100 miles on this car. The below information was supplied by the previous owner in California.
172,470 original miles, complete value job done with timing chain and all timing component replaced.
Always garaged and serviced at Maurice Mercedes service in Costa Mesa CA.
This classic coupe is so elegant with the terracota factory color and the beige leather interior, that always recieve compliments while driving in a Sunday brunch. This is the same model that Onasis gave to Jackie back on the 70's. This is a classic European VB sport coupe that will increase in value with the years.
Mechanically is superb, it runs so strong, fast and smooth at the same time that is a pleasure to drive it. The transmission shift just perfect, no slipping, no knock, no noise. Perfect.
The interior is in very clean condition. The seats are leather, both front seats show wear due to the age of the car, both seats have a tear on the top part of the seat (see photo's) that can be restitched. The headliner, the door panels, the rear seats and back tray are in great shape. The dashboard has a cover in the same beige color tone. The wood trim all around is nice, there is a very little piece missing next to the ignition tumbler, almost not noticeable. The carpets and floor mats are in good shape. All the gauges work, the radio works, the radio antenna works, the AC work, the heather works, the dome lights works, the door locks work, both front seats move back and forward freely. The horn works.
The exterior is almost in excellent condition except for 2 very minor scratches on the panels, one paint bubble next to the grill and very little spot around the radio antenna were the clear coat is peeling off. All the chromes are perfect, they are shining as the first day.
The tires are like new, they still have 90% left thread. All the brakes, belts, water hoes and breather hoses have been checked.
The car comes with a spare tire, floor jack, and original tools.

Experience the New York Auto Show by drone
Fri, Apr 10 2015The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.

Chris Harris falls in love with Mercedes-AMG GT at Laguna Seca
Thu, Dec 4 2014It's not every day that an automaker goes down a market segment and still comes off as even more ambitious, but that's exactly what Mercedes has done with the new AMG GT. While the SLS was bigger and more expensive, with the new GT, Mercedes has set its sights on one of the most iconic sports cars of all time. That, of course, would be the Porsche 911, and the big question is whether Benz has achieved its target. For the answer, we turn to none other than the Monkey himself – the inimitable Chris Harris, who recently went solo with his own YouTube channel. And for his latest segment, he took the latest German sports car around no less suitable a track than Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
Daimler names Bernd Pischetsrieder to supervisory board
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Some executives in the automotive industry stay with one company for their entire careers, while others bounce from one to the other, often leaving their indelible mark on each automaker at which they serve. Bob Lutz is certainly an example of the latter. So is Lee Iacocca, having presided over Ford and later charing the Chrysler board. Carlos Tavares was chief operating officer of Renault before being nominated as chief executive at PSA Peugeot Citroën. But as far as the Germans go, nobody's jumped from the leadership of one automaker to the next quite like Bernd Pischetsrieder - especially now that he's been named to the supervisory board of Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler.
An engineer by training, Pischetsrieder started his career at BMW in 1973, eventually rising to the office of CEO after twenty years. There he remained until 1999, only to be dismissed after orchestrating BMW's takeover of the Rover Group (of which only the Mini brand remains in the company's portfolio, the other brands having been sold off after his dismissal).
The next year he was named chairman of Volkswagen's Seat brand, and rose to the chairmanship of the entire Volkswagen Group two years later. Despite a largely successful four-year tenure (that gave birth, incidentally, to the Bugatti Veyron), disagreements with supervisory board chairman Ferdinand Piëch saw him leave the helm at VW AG, focusing his attention on the Scania truck division. He's since been touted as a potential chief executive for Opel and for Continental, but neither potential was apparently realized.
