I purchased this car on Ebay from Olympic Motors of Hicksville, Ny in Nov of 2006--I believe I am the third owner--This is one of three times she has been on the expressway--when I brought her home--3 buses and a train later--I have the original window sticker--a clear title--but alas I no longer have the great job to afford having such an expensive vehicle now. She is 14 years old and things are starting to happen--I have no one to help me with her. Issues--front plastic spoiler at bottom of grill under the license plate is cracked in the middle--she needs tires--she needs brakes--she needs good wipers--there is a lite out on the passenger front I think the fog light--driver's side window is not wanting to go all the way up--goes down great but needs a lot of coaxing to get back up--the outside temp gauge is broken and stuck on minus 36 degrees--ashtray is broke--yep I smoke in her--it's the only place I can smoke now--the lighter needs a fuse which also keeps me from charging my phone--rear view mirror is weird--it has begun to turn black from the bottom up--the trunk lid hydrolic won't stay up--since I purchased her she never had a/c--that doesn't bother me much in Ohio so I never checked into getting it fixed--brake light is out on driver's side rear--the original gas cap gave up last year and I have since purchased 3 caps to no avail I cannot find the correct one with the sensors in it so for that reason the check engine light stays on--there is a scratch on the trunk lid that just appeared after a grocery shopping trip--and there is a ding over the driver's side wheel well--2 of the wheels are showing their age and there is some paint residue on the front driver's side from a woman who backed into her at the mall and a pizza driver got part of her plate for me but the cops couldn't locate her nor could my insurance--now for the good things--the interior seats are in excellent condition no cracks or rips or tears anywhere that I can see--the original MB floor mats have never been stepped on by anyone since I got her--I took floor mats to NY when I brought her home--so there are in good shape--dash and middle part of her in good shape altho on the steering wheel and around the gear shift she is beginning to age a bit--the door panels look to be in excellent condition and the top works like a charm--I have the original stereo equiptment but Olympic motors installed a new radio when they found out I was coming to get her--they also put on new tires at that time and they are the tires that are on her now with the exception of the front--I wrecked her in 2008 but nothing major--no airbag deployment very low speed accident--Insurance took care of everything----Carbon Fiber Optic Interior Trim--telescoping steering--cruise control--garage door opener--vanity mirrors--dual beverage cup holders--excellent heater--cargo net--coin holder--remote lock--heated side mirrors--windsheild washing system and headlamp washers-night sec illimunation and the best part in the winter--heated front seats. I drive her 8 miles one way to work--she has never been on a trip--only locally driven--almost never over 40 miles per hour--I am a cargiver for my parents so I usually use their car on the weekends---This has been the most reliable and dependable vehicle I have ever owned and if I could afford to I would keep her or buy another one--I have only had her oil changed regularly and had to put a battery in last year as the original battery died--there was another reason I took her MB WEst Chester, Ohio about 3 yrs ago but I can't for the life of me remember what it was but it wasn't very expensive so I don't think it was anything major but should be listed on a Carfax report Any question call 513-569-9657. 500.00 down at end of auction--remainder due within 3 days of close of auction Thanx for reading and happy bidding!!!

Boston bombers were tracked using Mercedes mbrace [w/video]
Sun, 28 Apr 2013We now know Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the two brothers said to be behind the Boston Marathon bombings, planned to head for New York City to detonate more improvised explosive devices. As it turns out, that plan was foiled by the quick thinking of one Mercedes-Benz owner, diligent police work and the Mercedes-Benz mbrace system. When the brothers carjacked a 26-year-old Chinese entrepreneur identified only as "Danny," they didn't realize his Mercedes-Benz M-Class was equipped with the mbrace system, which can call for help in the event of an accident or track the vehicle in the event of a theft.
According to reports, the Tsarnaev brothers held Danny hostage for nearly 90 minutes while they drove around Boston forming a plan until they had to stop for fuel. When one of the brothers went inside to pay, the other put his gun down for a moment. Danny took the opportunity to unlatch his seat belt, open the door and run to another nearby gas station, where he told the owner to call the police.
When police arrived, they used the mbrace system to track the SUV after receiving Danny's permission, and it wasn't long before a shootout between police and the brothers ensued. When it was over, the eldest brother lay dead in the street. For more on the story, view the video report available below.
Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.
Germany says nein to EU ban on new fossil-fuel cars from 2035
Tue, Jun 21 2022BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's government will not agree to European Union plans to effectively ban the sale of new cars with combustion engines from 2035, Finance Minister Christian Lindner said on Tuesday. In its bid to cut planet-warming emissions by 55% by 2030 from 1990 levels, the European Commission has proposed a 100% reduction in CO2 emissions from new cars by 2035. That means it would be impossible to sell combustion engine cars from then. European Parliament lawmakers backed the proposals this month, before negotiations with EU countries on the final law take place. Speaking at an event hosted by Germany's BDI industry association, Lindner said there would continue to be niches for combustion engines so a ban was wrong and said the government would not agree to this European legislation. Lindner, a member of the pro-business Free Democrats, which shares power with the Social Democrats and Greens, said Germany would still be a leading market for electric vehicles.
