The Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 was produced between 1975 and 1981 in extremely limited numbers. Between those years only 1816 where imported to the US. Only 437 in 1978. I am listing this 6.9 for a friend of the family. Her husband was the second owner of this car and had it for many years. The husband has passed so I don't have much information on the cars history. I have done some research and I do know that the car is somewhat rare. There is another 6.9 listed on eBay right now that is absolutely gorgeous and in a different category altogether then the one I am listing here. That being said, this car is a pretty good example. Everything on the car is fully operational and it is in great mechanical condition. The car has been well maintained and needs nothing in regards to the mechanics and operation. However, the car is not without some cosmetic issues that I will attempt to describe to the best of my abilities.

The interior is in outstanding condition with little or no noticeable wear. However the steering wheel is not original and neither is the radio. The leather seats are perfect. There are no rips or stains anywhere. There are two locations where the chrome trim on two of the door panels is coming off (Images 22 & 23)

As far as the exterior, there are a few issues. I have taken pictures of all the imperfections I could find and I will describe them one by one.

There is blistering in the paint on the hood/window cowl at each lower corner of the windshield (Images 19 & 20)

There is blistering in the paint on the right rear fender next to the bumper wrap around and the rubber on the wrap around is loose (Image 16)

There are a few chips on the door edges in a couple of places (Images 17 & 18)

There are a few chips 3-4 here and there that I took pictures of but didn't list as to not use up my allotted images. Overall the paint is in pretty good condition and you would have to look close to see the defects. That being said, I do believe the car has had a repaint sometime in the distant past. I would like to add that the wheels are in perfect condition. No curb rash, rust or imperfections of any kind. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thank you for looking.

2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA priced from $31,300*

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

Mercedes-Benz has kindly let loose the price of the 2015 GLA-Class, telling Autoblog.com that the base 208-horsepower GLA250 in two-wheel drive will go for $31,300 *not including a destination charge of $925. That makes for $32,225 in total to get one off the lot, a price predicted as early as last year and in our recent First Drive. The other two available models can push power to all four wheels, and after the destination fee is applied the GLA240 4Matic (pictured) will be $34,225 while the 355-horsepower GLA45 AMG will change lives and wallets to the tune of $49,225.
On the base scale, that puts the GLA250 just a few hundred dollar bills above the more powerful, rear-wheel drive BMW X1 and a stack of hundreds below the less powerful, front-wheel drive Audi Q3. If you're keeping in-house score, the GLA250 comes in at $1,400 above its sedan platform-mate with the same engine, the CLA250. At the high end, however, the competition doesn't have anything that can touch the AMG trim. Not that it should matter all that much - Mercedes needed something to keep these buyers in the family, and now they have it. If any of them should need even more power and more money spent, then there's always that 394-hp Brabus flavor. We'll have more info and details on each trim when Mercedes unleashes the shebang in the not-too-distant future.
