2006 Mercedes-benz C230 Sport Sedan 4-door 2.5l - 2 Owner on 2040-cars
East Meadow, New York, United States
2006 Mercedes C230 Sport - 75,389 CarFax Documented 2 Owner Car NY State residents please know your limitations when bidding on this vehicle. No accidents reported to CarFax. Black on black - this vehicle runs and drives 100%. AC is ice cold. Excellent brakes. 3 good tires. One tire is a little weak, but the full size 17" spare tire is excellent and can go right onto the right rear. Everything else for safety inspection is fine. This car is going to the highest bidder. No Reserve! No Buy It Now! This vehicle has a lot of life left in it and is fundamentally sound. No noises, leaks, smoking, misfire or slippage. It does however have some minor issues. First off, the Check Engine light is on. This makes it ineligible for any NY State resident to purchase - please read below. Front bumper was bumped, thus damaging the "ambient air temperature switch" - that is what tripped the Check Engine light. We replaced it but the light comes back for the same code. My mechanic does not "speak" Mercedes very well, so it's selling As Is. The driver rear passenger door has sideswipe damage - very light but evident. The quarter panel was slightly scraped. Driver door is straight but missing the molding. Passenger front seat has some minor leather damage (as pictured). The hood release pin came out of the red handle. To open the hood you need pliers to pull on the pin. The secondary hood release plastic pull tab in the grill is functional, but the tip of it is broken off. The car was sitting for a while and kind of smells bad. A good detailing should take care of that. When replacing the wiper blades they would not go back down to the resting position. Bid with confidence and drive it home. New York
residents are unable to bid or buy unless they are a
registered car dealer, registering/re-titling the vehicle out of state or are
using it for “Parts Only”. When a car is sold as “Parts Only’ or “Salvage” it must pass a NY
State “Salvage Inspection”. This is done to keep rebuilt wrecks that are unsafe
off the road – especially vehicles with frame damage or airbag deployment. My
cars are rarely rebuildable wrecks and therefore will easily pass this
strict inspection process when the problem that is advertised is corrected.
There are about 10 to 15 NY State salvage inspection sites in NY State – 2 or 3
are on Long Island and there are a couple in NY City. Call me for further
clarification. As a registered NY State dealer I am unable to sell a car that won’t
pass inspection to a NY State resident. Anyone else can bid and buy. Sorry, I
don’t make the rules but as a used car dealer I must abide by them. Any questions call 516-228-1016 and leave a message if I’m not in.
Please don’t wait until the last day or last few hours to contact me. Please
speak clearly. I will pick you up at the airport, train or bus station.
Winning bidder please
leave a $300.00 non-refundable deposit in PayPal within 48 hours of the auction
close. If I don't receive the deposit within the 48 hours I will re-list the
car.
Please plan on picking this vehicle up within 15 days of the auction
close unless you have made prior arrangements with me before bidding.
All vehicles that run and drive are driven at least 10 to 20 miles
and usually 30 to 40 miles. I try to describe these vehicles to the best of my
35 years of experience. Our familiarity with these autos is limited to the miles
we drive them. Please be aware of this when bidding.
As always, if the winning bidder is not happy after road test and examination, I will cancel the sale and
refund $250.00 of your deposit.
Attention “Phantom/No-Show” bidders – I do not entertain any second
place bids and always re-list the vehicle. If your feedback is 1 or lower you must contact me prior to bidding.
If you don’t contact me your bid will be cancelled and you will be blocked from
further bidding.
Final sale price is what you pay! (New York residents must pay sales
tax and inspection fee when applicable.) There are no extra hidden fees!!!
We will accept any and all trade-ins or will visit you to purchase
any vehicle outright within a 50 mile radius of zip code 11554.

Are future vehicular hacks inevitable?
Wed, Jul 29 2015Before the hack of the Uconnect system in a Jeep Cherokee resulted in a 1.4-million vehicle recall, the potential software vulnerabilities in vehicles were already a hot topic with Congressional inquiries and even proposed legislation in the US. As cars' interconnected systems gain the ability to go online, they become open to a host of new threats. Automakers are trying to stop this, but it might be too late to put the genie back into the bottle. Throughout 2015, the issue of software security in vehicles has become increasingly vital. For example, the recent Jeep case wasn't even the biggest hack this year. In February, a major flaw was discovered in the BMW Connected Drive service that allowed researchers to remotely lock and unlock the doors and potentially affected 2.2 million cars. The fix was an over-the-air patch for the problem. Automakers are actively working to fix the issues. Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi reportedly are using encrypted connections and firewalls in their vehicles to prevent hacking. "Absolute, 100-percent safety isn't possible," Daimler spokesperson Benjamin Oberkersch said to Automotive News Europe. "But we develop our systems, tested by internal and external experts, so they're up to date." These vulnerabilities seem to be popping up more often. A successful hack took $14 in parts from Radio Shack in one case. There was also a 60 Minutes report earlier in the year about DARPA's ability to hack into OnStar to take control of a Chevrolet Impala. Experts aren't so sure companies can contend with hackers' advancement. "The difficulty for the carmakers at the moment is the question whether they can keep pace with advances in technology, and especially hacking technology," Rainer Scholz, executive director for telematics consultant EY, said to Automotive News Europe. "We seriously doubt they can." At this point, vehicle hacks are coming more from researchers looking for holes than from those with malicious intent. Still, the vulnerabilities are definitely there. It's up to automakers to keep patching the problems before they become dangerous to drivers.

First Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive rolls off line, coming to US soon
Fri, Apr 18 2014Mercedes-Benz is about to give Americans another choice of battery-powered vehicle. Offering more all-electric range than the Nissan Leaf or BMW i3, and with a smaller price tag than the Tesla Model S, the B-Class Electric Drive is officially set to arrive in the US this summer. Indeed, the first examples have begun rolling off the production line in Rastatt, Germany. Featuring drivetrain parts from Tesla Motors, the luxury compact hits all the performance parameters mentioned during its debut at last year's New York Auto Show. For a refresher, that's a single-charge range of 200 kilometers (124 miles) along with a 0-to-100 kilometer-per-hour (62 mile-per-hour) sprint in a respectable 7.9 seconds. These achievements comes courtesy of a 28-kWh lithium battery located in the floor of the passenger compartment and a 132-kW (177-horsepower) motor powering the front wheels. Torque specs for the unit seemed to have increased somewhat and are now given as 340 Newton meters (250.77 pound-feet). It boasts an 11-kW charger and can add as much as 62 miles of range to a deleted battery in an hour and a half. Sadly, it is not Supercharger compatible. The B-Class Electric Drive, which is built on the same production line as the gasoline-powered version, is going to go on sale in Europe around the end of the year and will also come in a right-hand drive version for other markets in 2015. Although pricing has not yet been announced, Mercedes execs expect it to be quite competitive with the BMW i3. Scroll below for the press release (Google translated from German). Model offensive: Mercedes-Benz launches first major series for electric cars - the start of production at Mercedes-Benz in Rastatt: B-Class Electric Drive begins For the first time large-scale production of Mercedes-Benz models with internal combustion engine and electric drive on the same line Stefan Abraham: "With the B-Class Electric Drive we are expanding our production portfolio at the Rastatt plant is a highly innovative drive variant." In the Mercedes-Benz plant in Rastatt today through the first B-Class Electric Drive off the line. This makes Mercedes-Benz models are produced with internal combustion engine and electric drive on the same line at the site for the first time. The B-Class Electric Drive is based on the Mercedes-Benz front-wheel drive architecture of the new Mercedes-Benz compact car generation and uses the modular component kit.
Your guide to vehicle subscription services
Mon, Oct 1 2018They 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.
