    NO RESERVE AUCTION. I WILL DELIVER ANYWHERE IN THE USA IF YOU BUY IT NOW. 

    Selling my excellent example of an early 300 turbo diesel coupe. The coupes are getting harder and harder to find in good shape, they made a very limited number of them compared to the sedans and wagons. This car has only had two owners and has been very well taken care of. I love this car and it is hard for me to let it go but I am afraid I don't have the room in my garage for it anymore.

     It runs and drives excellently, will start easy on the coldest of mornings. The transmission fluid has just been changed and it shifts smooth. All the lights work, and all the power options work with the exception of the passenger window, which will roll down but needs a little help to roll back up. I believe the mechanism needs to be lubricated. 

     The interior is an 8/10, it is complete, clean, and in excellent shape. The seats have minor cracking but in general the leather is still soft and smooth. I have to be honest, this car was smoked in by the original owner, but not by me. The smell is still noticeable but I will have the car shampooed and ozonated before delivery. 

     The body is also an 8/10. The paint is mint, there are no dings or dents or scratches. There is an area of surface rust near the seam to the side of the drivers side tail light. The trunk, undercarriage, floorpans, battery tray etc are rust free.

     The wheels are in good condition and come with a set of nearly new studded snow tires on them ( a necessity on a rwd car in utah) and also a set of summer tires with at least 50% tread left. 

     The car is quiet, smooth and powerful. It cruises at 100mph as easily as it does 30. It is an extremely nice car to drive. The motor seeps some oil but does not burn any. I would not hesitate to get in this car and drive it coast to coast. It has some vibration at idle, and it may need a passenger side motor mount, or it may be just a diesel thing, I've never owned another so I have no point of reference. It had the timing done about 1 year ago. I have every dealer maintenance record until almost 200,000 miles, and many service records from 200k till 280. 

     I know this is my first sale on ebay, so please contact me if you feel uncomfortable in any way. You are free to message me, text me or call me at any time! I can provide more pictures and videos upon request. 

PAYMENT: Cashiers Check will be the only method of payment I will be accepting. I will also take cash in person locally. I am not requiring a deposit, but all I can ask is that you DO NOT BID if you are not a serious buyer. There are bidders out there who genuinely want the car, so please let them have a fair auction for it.

SHIPPING: Shipping is up to you, but you are more than welcome to contact me to arrange delivery by me. I can deliver it to you cheaper than a shipping company if you live in the western states. Also, please keep in mind that I will deliver it any where in the country if you use the buy it now price! The car has a clean clear utah title in hand ready to sell.

PLEASE READ THE WHOLE DESCRIPTION BEFORE BIDDING. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME ANY TIME AT 801-709-4666 OR MESSAGE ME THROUGH EBAY.

13-year-old boy swipes dad's Mercedes, drives across Europe

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

After an argument with his adoptive parents that resulted in them taking away his mobile phone, an angry 13-year-old boy ran away from his home in Italy and headed straight to Poland to meet his biological sister. But instead of taking the train or hitching a ride, like most on the run, the young man (an accomplished go-kart racer and car enthusiast) grabbed the keys to his father's Mercedes-Benz and jumped behind the wheel for an impromptu road trip.
With less than 200 euros (about $270) in his wallet and a passport in his pocket, the youngster managed to put more than 500 miles between himself and his distraught parents, crossing two international borders in the process, before German police nabbed him just shy of the Polish border. According to reports, the vehicle was tracked - it wasn't his driving that alerted authorities to his location.
Reunited with his mother and father, who traveled to Germany to retrieve both their son and the vehicle, the young man apologized and acknowledged his error. As a result of his actions, social workers will increase checks on the family and we can be sure his parents are now hiding the keys.

Car dealers, factories and ports close in the path of Hurricane Florence

Thu, Sep 13 2018

Hurricane Florence has caused CarMax to close four stores in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. The closed locations are in Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Winterville and Virginia Beach. It is possible for the company to close more stores, reports Automotive News. Daimler and Volvo have also shuttered their manufacturing facilities in the region to prepare for Florence. The storm is expected to reach North Carolina and South Carolina today or tomorrow. Automotive News says every coastal car dealer it reached on Tuesday was closing, and others not in the projected landfall area were monitoring the situation. There are approximately nine million vehicles in operation in the area that Florence is expected to hit, with a vehicle density of 162 vehicles per square mile. It is likely that not as many vehicles will be lost as during hurricanes Harvey and Irma, as population is less dense; areas affected by those storms had over 300 vehicles per square mile. The chief economist of Cox Automotive told Automotive News that some 20,000 to 40,000 vehicles could end up flooded if Florence keeps its path; however, recent reports have indicated Florence has weakened to a category 2 hurricane on Thursday. Tesla has again unlocked more range for some of its older models to make evacuation easier; the same was done a year ago in preparation for Hurricane Irma. As well as automotive manufacturers and dealers, automotive transport providers are readying for the storm and clearing cargo away. The container and auto terminals at Port Charleston will be closed from Thursday to Saturday, affecting part shipments to the BMW manufacturing facility in Spartanburg; BMW's spokespersons have said no production disruption is expected. Parts are delivered via railroad to Spartanburg by Norfolk Southern, which is also suspending operations for the time being. Vehicle hauler United Road has moved its rigs to safer regions and suspended deliveries, and car carrier vessels are trying to make it away from the storm's path in time.

Next Mercedes-Benz C-Class to get diesel, hybrid versions

Tue, 16 Apr 2013

Mercedes-Benz is planning a more aggressive product strategy for its next-generation C-Class range. "We were fighting the 3 Series with two arms tied behind our back, and now we will change that," Steve Cannon, the automaker's US CEO, told Automotive News in a recent interview.
In addition to offering more body styles of the new C-Class, AN reports that the revamped Mercedes will also be offered here with hybrid and diesel powertrains. Currently, the C-Class comes in coupe and sedan variants, with only gasoline engines. The BMW 3 Series, however, is available as a sedan, coupe, convertible and wagon, and offers buyers the choice of gasoline, diesel (the upcoming 328d) or hybrid power.
Mercedes-Benz will show the next-generation C-Class at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, with sales of the US-built sedan following in August. Coupe, convertible and hybrid models will follow in early 2015, and while diesel and all-wheel-drive versions are planned, no specific timetable has been released regarding availability.
