Hello! Thank you for stopping by my auction for the 1980 Mercedes Benz 300d BIO-DIESEL. Here's a quick rundown of basics. Engine is strong and transmission shifts very well in every gear Now the particulars--I bought this from a 65 yr old man in San Diego (Coronado Island) who owned it for six years. He put lots of money and time into this to keep it an excellent looking and running car. THERE IS NEARLY NO RUST IN THIS CAR as it has been in California its whole life. This man bought the car from the original owner who lived in La Jolla and rarely drove it. I could hardly believe it only had 98,000 miles but he insists its true and backs it up with receipts dating back to 2008 with correct mileages (93k, 95k) over the years which gives me good reason to believe it. Plus the man I bought it from has an incredible house on Coronado Island in San Diego and would have no reason to jack the mileage back!! I believe him--otherwise I wouldn't have bought the car. I guess the pictures will tell the story although the ones I have are just OK. Later I will post engine and trunk pictures or I can send them directly to you if you have interest. The car starts right up and runs excellent. It currently runs on diesel but has been outfitted with a conversion kit that lets it accept vegetable oil as fuel. I will post pictures of that later today. The previous owner says the Benz gets 28MPG. The only thing in the cab not original is the radio which is a very nice AM FM CD player with great speakers. All power windows, lights, brake lights, ALL dash indicators work great. Comes with TWO tanks presumably for diesel and bio-diesel.
It comes with a clear title and current California registration although it expires this month. The only thing that seems to cut in and out are the turn signals. They work most of the time and then don't. All other electrical is sound. Some of the door vinyl material isn't perfect. You'll see in the pics but the basics are quite good. If you have interest in seeing the car, having your brother-in-law from California check it out, or if you have any other questions not covered here, please call of text me at 619-341-9873. I'm an opera singer and not a car guy but I'll try to answer anything you may have. Thanks!! Richard Stanford

Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 to debut in Monterey
Mon, Aug 15 2016Mercedes surprised the car world last week when it teased an enormous, Maybach-badged coupe concept. Now we have a name and a debut date. Mercedes released the info in a second teaser image posted to its Facebook page. Called the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 – "Vision" equals concept and "6" denotes the length in meters – the new two-door will debut at Pebble Beach on Thursday. So yeah, here's another reason to get excited about Monterey Car Week. As for the teaser image, it's a head-on shot as opposed to the profile view that Mercedes released last week. The new view supports our theory that the super-skinny mirrors are cameras, and the shot also reveals new styling touches. The most noticeable are the very thin, un-Mercedes-like headlights – they flank a prominent, heavily polished waterfall grille that marks a significant departure from recent Mercedes products. A traditional Mercedes hood ornament sits above the grille's small "Maybach" designation. Kicking up the exposure in Photoshop doesn't reveal too much more detail – unlike last week's profile image – aside from a set of chrome strips that run along the sides of the hood. Autoblog's Monterey Car Week crew ships out for the left coast soon – expect more on the festivities, including the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6's debut, later this week.

Mercedes-Benz C350 Plug-In Hybrid promises 20 miles EV range, 5.9 seconds to 60
Mon, Jan 12 2015Mercedes-Benz has introduced its first hybrid C-Class to the US market with the new C350 Plug-In Hybrid. Despite its fuel-saving purpose, though, this C is not short on firepower. MB paired a 208-horsepower, 258-pound-foot, turbocharged four-cylinder with a 80-hp, 251-lb-ft electric motor for a potent overall output of 275 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque. That translates a 0-60 time of just 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 130 miles per hour. For those that aren't interested in such frivolous numbers, though, the C-Class can still impress in more environmentally friendly ways. It can cover 20 miles to a charge and will hit speeds of up to 80 miles per hour (although not likely at the same time). Naturally, fuel economy figures aren't available at this early stage. Beyond those powertrain changes, the C350 Plug-In is still the same relaxed, luxurious baby S-Class, with a class-leading interior that should really benefit from the quiet ride provided by an electric powertrain. Take a look at our full gallery of live images of the new C-Class hybrid, straight from the Detroit's Cobo Hall.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.
