See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Small ding near trunklid, small tear in driver seat bottom, wood has cracking in some of the clear coat, 2 door panels have small cracks near door lock at the top under the window, odometer stopped working 4 months ago, sunroof works but is slow due to shrunken rubber seal impeding it, fabric strip on rubber sear for driver door has come loose, driver side door lock is worn and it is difficult to lock/unlock, power antennae stays up. The brake force struts in the front suspension are shot so the front end clunks under braking and some turning but I have had my mechanic look at it and the ball joints, a-arms, etc. are fine, its just the brake force struts."

 1991 Mercedes Benz 350 SDL.  It is the same as the 1986 or 1987 300 SDL but the engine is larger and more powerful (it is geared a little higher, 3rd redlines at 80 mph and the factory claimed this car could do 115 mph), the turbo is updated, the rear end and transmission are heavier duty.  The car has 394k, a new bottom end around 100k ago, new head (a #22 head) went in 4 months ago.  The radiator, a/c compressor, axles and vacuum lines are all new.  The engine runs like new (it practically is new), transmission shifts flawlessly and a/c blows really cold. Original paint is ok with one ding near trunk lid.  Tires are new three months ago.   Receipts for all items previously mentioned as new.  The drivers side door lock is pretty worn out so it is difficult to lock/unlock on that side but passenger door lock works perfect, the plastic around the headlights has a few age cracks as does the door panels near the door locks and the clear coat on some of the woodwork.    The interior is pretty good except for a small tear in the drivers seat. Everything works except for power antennae stays up.   New pioneer stereo with usb jack.  This car is more of a runner than a show car, while everything is there and works for the most part, everything shows wear.  The motors for these cars go for 8500$ for a rebuilt longblock and that is what this car has under the hood with 100k miles on it, and a good transmission to boot, just realize everything else shows age.  To start the car in the morning, just turn on the glow plugs for 1 or 2 seconds and barely crank the starter for a second and it starts right up with a perfect smooth idle.  The car is very quiet and smooth, never been in an accident, has no rust in the undercarriage.

Autoblog Minute: New car customer satisfaction down according to latest ACSI report

Wed, Sep 9 2015

Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. Autoblog's Chris McGraw reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. I'm Chris McGraw and this is your Autoblog Minute. The American Customer Satisfaction Index or ACSI released its updated numbers and according to the survey, new car buyer satisfaction is down for the third straight year. According to an ACSI press release, customer satisfaction with new automobiles has fallen 3.7 percent, to 79 on its 100-point scale. The ACSI report is based on over 4,100 customer surveys collected in the second quarter of 2015 Sitting at the top of the industry in customer satisfaction is Toyota's Lexus brand with a score of 84. Which was good enough to dethrone Mercedes-Benz, which fell 3% to a score of 83. Of the Big Three, Ford was the only domestic automaker to maintain overall customer satisfaction with its score of 81. General Motors slipped 3% to 79 and Fiat Chrysler had a 5% drop, registering a score of 75 out the possible 100. What's driving this trend of customer dissatisfaction? ASCI points to the rise in recalls and car prices. Where do you land on customer satisfaction spectrum? Sound off in the comments with your thoughts on the current state of car ownership and brand quality. For Autoblog, I'm Chris McGraw. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive.

Your guide to vehicle subscription services

Mon, Oct 1 2018

They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.

Jay Leno tells the story of his Mercedes Gullwing

Thu, Mar 26 2015

With all the new and varied machinery stopping by Jay Leno's Garage on a regular basis, it would be all too easy to forget that the former talk show host has one of the largest and most enviable private collections of automobiles in the world. Leno has hundreds of vehicles at his disposal, but the real value of it all is at least as much about quality as it is quantity. Take this gem, for example. Sure, it's a little worse for wear, but it's got a nice patina to it – and it's a work in progress. One look is all it takes to know exactly what it is: a classic Mercedes-Benz 300SL, complete with Gullwing doors. "The McLaren F1 of its day," Jay calls it, and with good reason. Watch the video above to hear the story of the Gullwing he rescued from the desert and is slowly bringing back to life. Related Video:
