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.

Hamilton wins at Monza, takes Formula One lead from Vettel

Sun, Sep 3 2017

MONZA, Italy (Reuters) - Lewis Hamilton won the Italian Grand Prix for Mercedes on Sunday with an utterly dominant drive that sent the Briton clear at the top of the Formula One world championship for the first time in a year. The triple champion, who started the last race of the European season from a record 69th career pole position, led Finnish team mate Valtteri Bottas to a runaway one-two finish at Ferrari's home track. "I love it here in Italy and I love the passion of the fans," Hamilton declared on the podium jutting out over a sea of red-shirted Ferrari fans, with plenty of boos coming his way amid the cheers. "We did a great job, the team did an exceptional job this weekend," he added. "Mercedes power is definitely better than Ferrari power." Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel, who had led the standings since he won the Australian season-opener in March, finished third in the final race of the European season and 36.3 seconds behind the winner. Bottas was 4.4 adrift of Hamilton. "It was a difficult day, a difficult start," said Vettel. "My race was fairly isolated, we tried to keep as close as possible but we simply didn't have the pace... You could say it's a bad day but I know the team is on the right way... so I am in a very positive mood despite the numbers." Hamilton is now three points clear of the German, with seven races remaining. Mercedes are 62 points clear of Ferrari in the constructors' standings. The first driver to win two races in a row this season, with Monza following on from Belgium a week ago, Hamilton now leads Vettel 6-4 on victories in 2017. He has 238 points to Vettel's 235. The last time Hamilton led the standings on his own was at Monza a year ago, with now-retired team mate Nico Rosberg emerging as the eventual champion. FEW THRILLS Hamilton and four-times champion Vettel were level on points this year after China in April, with one win and one second place each. If Sunday's race was a dull affair, there was at least plenty of sunshine in marked contrast to the steady rain that drenched fans and delayed qualifying for hours on Saturday. Hamilton pulled away cleanly from his historic pole, and fourth in a row at Monza, and was never challenged as he drove to the chequered flag with the minimum of fuss. It was his third Italian Grand Prix win in four years and 59th career victory – only Michael Schumacher, whose pole record he beat, can boast more – and few have been more straightforward.

2017 Mercedes-AMG C63 is about to get official [UPDATE]

Wed, Aug 19 2015

UPDATE: As predicted, Mercedes followed up with official information and a full set of images of the C63. Click through to read the lot of it. Let's not kid ourselves; we already know what the 2017 Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe looks like. The company has been dropping teasers like they're hot, in video and photo form. We caught a spied glance of the whole car very recently, too. And we saw the base C-Class Coupe in all of its official glory just last week. Still, Mercedes knows that the new C63 is likely to be a hot topic with the enthusiast crowd (that's you and me, Bub), so it's dropping as many breadcrumbs as it can between now and the fully fleshed out information. This afternoon that means this first official image of the car: a double-fantasy of German speed in stirring red and striking silver. Big 14-spoke wheels ground each corner of this flowing coupe shape, with air-gulping intakes, a pointillistic metallic grille, and LED-strip headlights dominating the front end. Mercedes has promised us that more information about its performance-focused C-Class is upcoming. We're going to update this very post with that knowledge just as soon as we have it, so stay tuned.

Mercedes-AMG could use electric turbos

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Mercedes-Benz is joining Audi in analyzing electric turbochargers for its production cars. But while Ingolstadt will roll out its first e-turbo in its A8 luxury sedan, Stuttgart is studying the technology for use in small performance cars, like the A45, CLA45, and GLA45 AMG models. Auto Express spoke to Mercedes-AMG compact car boss Steffen Jastrow about the cutting-edge tech, which reduces turbo lag, improves fuel economy, and occupies less space under the hood than a standard turbo. "Of course we need more power for the next-generation of cars, but electrification does not mean we have to use an electric drivetrain." Jastrow said. "They have to be faster and e-turbos are an option. We use them in motorsport, but the technology has to be payable for the customer." As AE tells it, bringing the price of e-turbos down from the A8's luxury car level to the relatively affordable sums demanded by compact AMG models will still take some time. So don't count on seeing a Mercedes with an electric turbocharger until the new A-Class arrives in 2017, at the earliest. Related Video:
