This is a 1988 Mercedes 560 SL...It runs like a dream. I am selling it because I intended to when i purchased it two years ago. I bought it from a friend that was relocating from Michigan to Texas which is where he bought the car originally. Before that it appears that it belonged to the co-owner of the Cincinnati Bengals. The car was in "barn" condition when i acquired it. Since then I have had a thorough tune-up w/ documentation, I have replaced the radiator with OEM, I have replaced the starter w/ a new Bosch starter, and as a precaution i replaced the fuel pump (s) because when i received the car it had old gas in it (which i removed before starting.) I have also bought a brand new battery, replaced the soft top cover, and put new palomino seat covers on. I also replaced the cd/mp3/usb player and installed all new speakers. This car is a lot of fun....I meant to sell this car much sooner than now but i love the way this thing rides....And since it is a 1988 it was the next to the last year for the classic 107 body style.....If you are buying this car you probably have all the specs so why bother, feel free to contact me with any questions....There is some minor body dings/paint damage but is original paint and i never bothered because it was never my intention to restore this car. ( I tried to get good pictures) The odometer is not accurate, my best estimate from the previous titles (which i have) Is that there is approx. 100,000 miles....This was a Texas car and was stored indoors at all times so there is no rust. There are new tires and a full spare w/ OEM jack in excellent condition. My intention is to sell this car, so i am setting the reserve at my break even (not including time) which is $8,500 good luck and please contact w/ any questions....This is an excellent classic car that rides and drives great. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have.

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.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale
Fri, 10 May 2013There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.
Mercedes CLA45 AMG Racing is ready for a spot on the grid
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz trotted out its CLA45 AMG-based racer at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We first showed you the sedan in the deluge of news and reveals that precedes most good auto shows, and were blown away by the car, formally known as the CLA45 AMG Racing Series.
We were strolling by the Mercedes stand, and figured we'd pop in and take a look at the new racer and its carbon-fiber body panels, gutted interior, and race-sourced aero parts. It's a looker, both as a road car and a track weapon. It's not clear what series the CLA45 AMG will qualify for, although it does seem like a shoe-in for the World Touring Car Championship. Let us know what you think of the CLA racer down in the comments. In the meantime, we've got a full gallery of live images up top, along with the stock images that were posted last week on the Mercedes-Benz Facebook page.
