This is an original classic that drives and runs well.  This is a 300TD wagon from  Mercedes that runs on Bio-diesel or regular diesel and gets up to 30MPG. It is a safe and reliable vehicle and needs a safe and responsible driver. These cars were built to last a lifetime and this car will most likely be running well 30 years from now. It has the well known solid steel 5 cylinder engine that has been known to go well over 1 million miles.  It will never need to be smogged, even in California.

Standard features include: 4-speed automatic transmission, leather seats, power steering, cruise control, climate control, power assisted 4 wheel disc brakes, central locking system, fully independent suspension, electric windows, steel belted radial-ply tires, tinted glass, heated rear window, halogen fog lamps,  sunroof, new Kenwood AM/FM/CD player.

This is the same year, make and model of John Lennon's last car which he had delivered new to the Apple Offices in New York.  Try Googling "Mercedes 1979 300TD, John Lennon."

Originally shipped to the Apple offices 1 West 72nd Street in New York City. The Mercedes was mentioned numerous times in the book “The Last Days of John Lennon.” The memoir was written by Fredric Seaman, John Lennon’s personal assistant at the time of his death.

This Mercedes featured in a television special of ‘Lost and Found’, Episode 53 on December 18, 2000 on The History Channel. John Lennon used the wagon as his personal transportation as well as to transport his guitars and equipment to recording studios such as The Hit Factory and the Record Plant.

The question is always "What color should my Mercedes be?"  The answer is "Whatever color my grandchildren prefer because they are the ones that will wind up driving her!"

    2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style

    Mon, 14 Jan 2013

    Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
    In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
    We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.

    Mercedes spotted testing new S-Class cabrio in the snow

    Wed, Feb 25 2015

    A fullsize luxury convertible is a rare species. There's the Bentley Continental GTC, maybe the Aston Martin DB9 or Vanquish Volante and the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible if you won't need those rear seats too often, but that's about it. The segment seems to be expanding, though, with the imminent arrival of the drop-head version of the Rolls-Royce Wraith and the new challenger you see here. Spied undergoing winter testing in Sweden, this prototype for the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet is wearing barely any camouflage or body cladding whatsoever. In all likelihood that's largely because it's essentially the S-Class Coupe we already know, but with a folding fabric roof: Mercedes typically keeps the origami tin-tops to two-seaters like the SL and SLK. When the new S-Class cabrio is ready to launch – probably sometime between now and the summer – it'll join an expanding array of convertible Benzes that already includes the aforementioned SL and SLK and the E-Class Cabriolet, and will soon adopt the AMG GT roadster as well.

    2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG

    Fri, 22 Feb 2013

    Make way for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG, the most wonderfully preposterous car I have ever driven.
    There is absolutely no reason why any two-seat roadster should be fitted with a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 developing 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, but I sure am glad that Mercedes-Benz doesn't see things that way.
    Drop into the leather-lined cockpit of this $213,145 provocateur, floor the accelerator pedal as I did over and over again, and 60 miles per hour falls in a traction-limited 3.9 seconds. Top speed has been electronically held to 186 mph (this apparently saves Gulfstream jet owners from embarrassment). Forget the SL550 and SL63 AMG, the valets will trip over themselves attending to the tycoon driving this thoroughbred - it's the real deal.
