Mercedes only built 8007 of the gorgeous 123 series coupes with the diesel engine and a lot less with the turbo version . This wonderful car was finished in Champagne ( MB color code 473 ) with palomino color MB-tex interior . It is a very elegant color combination and i do get compliments on it every time i drive it . The body and the paint are in wonderful condition . There are no dings , dents or scratches and the paint still shines . The interior is also still very well preserved , as the many pictures will show . The seats are in good condition , the carpets are like new and the headliner and door panels are clean . The wood is also in great shape . This car really looks great and many people can not believe , that it is almost 30 years old . But the best thing about it is the way it drives . It has always been maintained well and it shows . Besides regular maintenance it also received a air-filter upgrade and is much quicker as a result of it . You can drive it at 85-90 miles per hour all day long and still get 27 miles per gallon of diesel . This coupe has the lines and the sturdy build of a classic Mercedes while featuring all the amenities of a much more modern car . It comes with power windows, power sunroof, power door locks, power mirror , cruise control and AC . The original radio has been upgraded to a newer model featuring a CD player . I still have the original radio as well .  This is one of the few classic cars you can drive every day and not think twice about it . These cars are known to go for over 500k miles with the right maintenance . There are several Mercedes diesel of this era on Ebay right now with over 400k miles and still driving well . So with only 140k miles , this car is barely broken in .  This engine is also the perfect candidate for Bio diesel conversion , where you can drive on vegetable oil or free waste oil from restaurants . This 300CD always only drove on regular diesel , but i was told , it would be a easy conversion .  With prices on clean 123 series Mercedes rising over the last few years and the low miles , this could also be a very good and practical long term investment .  If you have any questions or would like to see this 300CD , please send me an email and i will get back to you quickly . I would prefer to sell this car to somebody locally , who could actually come out and see it / test drive it . But i would also be willing to help with shipping arrangements or an airport pick up for the winning bidder . Please have your funding in order , ask all questions and do all your " due diligence " BEFORE placing a bid . This is a wonderful , great running 30 year old automobile and it will be sold "as is " , " where is " and without a warranty . The winning bidder should not be disappointed . I did upload many more pictures and they can describe this car much better than i can . Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck !!

Aston or Bust? Maybach's fate to be decided next month

Mon, 13 Jun 2011

2011 Maybach 62 - Click above for high-res image gallery
What will become of Maybach? That question has been rattling around the halls of Daimler headquarters in Stuttgart for some time now. But all questions will be answered, and answered soon: according to reports, the German automaker is currently evaluating prototypes and propositions for its top-end marque, and will make its decision next month.
So, what are the options? On the one hand, Daimler could kill the Maybach brand altogether. It was a notion ill conceived and even more poorly executed, taking an old platform and building a new flagship atop it. In that way, it was sort of like the Chrysler Crossfire, only far more costly to both the buyer and manufacturer. On the other hand, Daimler could opt for the long-time-coming proposition of contracting the production (and possibly much of the development) of a new generation of Maybachs to Aston Martin.

Petrolicious shows Mercedes 280SL as architecture in motion

Wed, Jun 17 2015

While still an absolute beauty today, the design of the pagoda-roof W113 Mercedes-Benz SL was revolutionary when it debuted. Moving away from the soft curves of the previous SL models, the all-new generation brought an upright, angular shape that was as much architectural as automotive. In the latest video from Petrolicious, owner and architect Daniel Monti expounds on the inspiration that he gets from his 1969 280SL's fantastic styling. The roof is the most famous design feature of this generation of SL. Look at the top from the front or back, and you can see a gentle, downward arc that evokes the look of a pagoda. That one styling element is also a fabulous counterpoint to a vehicle that is largely more angular than curvaceous. Petrolicious wonderfully illustrates how some of the SL's form-follows-function design aesthetic can be found in the architect's work in this video's heaping helping of mid-century modern goodness.
