1987 Mercedes Benz 300d on 2040-cars
Columbus, Ohio, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1987 Mercedes 300D. This is one of the cleanest and most mechanically sound 87 300Ds you will find in the northern states. Would make for a perfect WVO conversion. This car has seen very little snow in its entire life. I bought it in August 2012 after two Mercedes Diesel lovers owned it for a total of three years. The first 22 years of its life were with an elderly woman in Florida. Many repairs have been done since it was brought up from Florida. Listed below. I have receipts for many of them and full vehicle history reports. __________________________________________________________ The 300D has mainly been used around town for the last year, getting about 25mpg. The suspension is very tight and as you will see in the list below, it is pretty much all new. It needs at least a couple new tires, but this sale will come with three tires (I just put one on after a flat. The flat could be patched if wanted.) The previous owner put a set of four tires on matching Benz wheels. Those will be included. The transmission has good shift points, and pulls stongly, but shifts too firmly at times. The hvac system works very well, the a/c will freeze you out, and the heater works well. All buttons work correctly moving the air to where it is supposed to be. Even the rear headrest still flips down. While this car is an exceptionally clean driver, she still has some flaws, and this auction is as-is only. There will be no refunds or anything of that nature. I prefer that anyone bidding on the car actually come out to take a look at it. I am fully disclosing any issues this car has, whether they are big or small that I know of; however it is 25 years old and I cannot make any guarantees. Please ask any question you have. ______________________________________________________ Some things that are needed: Rear driver window does not go up or down. (Narrowed down to pinched wire in the pillar going to door) Front seat head rest motors run but don't move head rests Power antennae not functioning but makes noise Has a miss when fired up for the first time each day no matter what the temperature is. Has a few rust bubbles here and there, all smaller than a quarter. Dent in rear drivers quarter, shown in pictures. Passenger side rear wheel bearing will need to be replaced __________________________________________ Listed below are the replacement parts and work done over the last 3 years: Rebuilt injectors with Monarch nozzles Bosch glow plugs Rear subframe mounts and bushings, Lemforder Differential bushings and mount, Lemforder Sway bar links Both rear wheel carrier arms Bilstein shocks in rear Half shafts Lemforder motor mounts Driveshaft center support bearing and mount Battery Left rear wheel bearing Both front wheel bearings Left rear brake caliper, hard line and rubber line Windshield washer pump Belt tensioner Return lines on injectors Front end alignment General Altimax HP tires Steering filter and fluid change Defroster switch Filter and fluid change on transmission Rotella Synthetic oil every 5,000 miles Both front ball joints Idler Arm repair kit Tie-rod arms and ends both left and right front Block heater New expansion tank (old had become hard to see through after yellowing with age) Coolant flush and refill with new Zerex antifreeze designed for the Mercedes Alignment at Mercedes Dealership Rear brake pads Drivers side rear brake caliper Both Fuel filters changed every 10,000 About 14,000 miles on current General Altimax tires mounted on Mercedes Wheels, as well as about 8,000 on Cooper tires mounted on Mercedes Wheels. Both sets come with car. Box of extra parts that will come with car include items such as glow plugs, spare glow plug relay, new serpentine belt, Fuel filter (needed in 5000miles) Dual stereo with HD radio, IPod connection and Bluetooth Cruise control amp |

2016 Mercedes-Maybach S600 First Drive
Mon, Jan 19 2015Imagine the audacity: during the salad days of the early 2000s, the company that invented the automobile – already synonymous with class-leading luxury – sought to further expand its portfolio by crashing the ultraluxury party. Going up against the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley, Mercedes-Benz traded its unmistakable Three-Pointed Star for a Mighty Mouse-like logo, exhuming a stately, long-dead German marque originally founded in 1909. The long-wheelbase Maybach 62 listed at an epic $360,000, while later spinoffs included curiosities like the nearly $700,000 Zeppelin, and a roofless, seven-figure limousine dubbed Laundaulet. By the time the financial bubble finally burst in 2008, the brand's fate was all but sealed, with US sales dropping into the double digits. It limped along another four years, but when the nameplate finally went kerplunk, it left behind it a trail of disappointed movers, shakers, moguls and rappers. The perfect postmodern metaphor for the brand's funeral pyre? Kanye West and Jay-Z's Otis music video, in which a perfectly fine Maybach is chopped and deconstructed, flames spewing out the tailpipes as it powerslides through an empty parking lot. Meet The (Sorta) New Boss Rising from the ashes of hubris is the 2016 Mercedes-Maybach S600, a recalibrated stab at high-end luxury with a startlingly similar, yet different, approach to its forbear. Like the last go, the new sled features a significantly longer wheelbase, which stretches 8.1 inches over the standard S600. Additional sound damping helps it claim the quietest rear cabin in all of production automobiledom, and posher trim bits include a rim of wood surrounding the reclining rear seats. Among the livery-focused special features is a rearview mirror-mounted microphone to amplify the driver's voice, an available rear fridge, and an executive seat package with folding tray tables. The super high-end hallmarks are there – a twin-turbo V12 dispatching sub-5 second 0 to 60 times, a stunning 24 speaker Burmester sound system, double-M branded silver plate champagne flutes, et al. – but the hyperinflated price tag is not. Starting at $189,350, roughly half the cost of the old flagship, the new Maybach isn't even the most expensive Mercedes-Benz you can buy. That distinction goes to the S65 AMG Coupe, which empties your coffers to the tune of $230,900.
Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX
Mon, Feb 2 2015Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.
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.
