Orange, California, United States

This CL-class is super clean and has been lovingly maintained . This CL was purchased new at Fletcher Jones Mercedes Benz in Newport Beach and my father in law was the second owner since 2006. It has been a Southern California car its entire life, never seeing snow and rarely seeing rain. One of the best color combinations for this coupe. Black Almandine with Tan Leather. The exterior color appears nearly black in low light and a deep burgundy in bright light. The wheels are original Mercedes and set off nicely with new Michelin tires.

It is loaded with EVERYTHING! Ventilated heated and cooled seating, power 14-way adjustable front and rear seating, (with memory and lumbar), heated seats, 4-zone electronic climate control, high-power concert BOSE/Harmon Kardon audio system with 10-speakers and 6-disc CD changer, power rear window sunshade, one-touch express power windows, power glass moonroof, factory navigation, illuminated vanity mirrors, xenon high-intensity lighting, rain sensing wipers, traction control, and factory security system to name the most desired. This CL500 is in great condition and is an absolute pleasure to drive. 
 
The 5.0 liter 24-valve aluminum V-8 engine delivers instant acceleration when you want it, and behaves responsibly when you don't. The shiftable 5-speed automatic transmission makes driving enjoyable, while providing performance and control when you need it. 

The exterior is in great condition. In fact, it is outstanding. The original paint used by Mercedes has been protected in a climate controlled garage at night and kept out of the sun during the day. You will be hard pressed to find a cleaner example. My father in law loved this car, and it shows. Absolutely no dents or parking lot door dings, with minor road rash and scratches, normal for a car of this vintage. Loaded with everything and it runs and drives superbly. Everything works perfectly and properly, and we have just serviced this car, including new tires, brake pads, rotors, universal pump, and all parts needed.
 
All this beautiful car needs now is a new home. This car has never been smoked in with the original mileage at a very low 103,600  (about 8,000 miles per year), and those were exclusively Southern California miles, and it does makes a difference! Combined with the factory chrome wheels and integrated factory fog lamps, this CL500 looks great from any angle.
 
The latest January 2014 NADA Used Car Guide retail value for this 2001 Mercedes-Benz CL500 is upwards of $13,000 Trade-in value is actually close to our listing price. Simply put, this is one of the cleanest examples of a 2001 CL-class that you will find anywhere. And priced for an immediate sale.
 
I am happy to assist with transport within the Continental US, and free airport pick-up is available from John Wayne Orange County Airport. Please feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions you may have. My name is George and I can be reached at 714 200-5920. I will charge a $250 fee as part of the purchase to cover title transfer and preparation. Thank you for looking!

2017 Aston Marin Lagonda could live on Mercedes M-Class platform

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

A few weeks ago, we brought you news from the launch of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante that the British brand, which is formally known as Aston Martin Lagonda, was still planning on going ahead with a Lagonda-badged crossover. Now comes word that that vehicle could very well be based on a Mercedes-Benz M-Class.
When the first Lagonda Concept debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, it sat on a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class platform, some four years before Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG deal was inked. And with that partnership, which will see Aston Martin gain access to AMG electrics and "bespoke, V8 powertrains," the opportunities for platform sharing are many.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, the boss of Aston Martin, told the UK's AutoCar, "I look at what Porsche is doing with the 911 as its core business and then it is able to do models like the Cayenne based on the Volkswagen Touareg. It is good business." We've said many times that we'll tolerate exotic CUVs and SUVs if it means keeping the beloved core models alive, which has been the case with Porsche. We see no reason Aston Martin wouldn't be able to do the same.

New Mercedes Unimog debuts to the cheers of little boys everywhere [w/video]

Sat, 27 Apr 2013

The Mercedes Unimog, the superhero villain of the off-road world that's just waiting to make the jump to Transformer, has been completely upgraded for its new generation. There are ten models, expanding the range and getting new designations across the traditional all-terrain series and the implement-carrier series. Panoramic cabins get more visibility, multifunction steering wheels and better dash clusters, improved HVAC and a three-mode central tire inflation system. Outside, there are new items like LED headlights and daytime running lamps in the bumper, roof-mounted windshield wipers and a front-camera monitor for the implement carrier.
The new engine lineup is compliant with Euro VI, featuring four- and six-cylinder BlueEfficiency engines putting out anywhere from 156 horsepower to 354 hp. Powerplant placement has also been tweaked, the chassis members getting a revised curve to place the engine a bit further back and lower, maintaining off-road clearance and lowering the Unimog's center of gravity. The new location of the engine means the cabin has more room, and the wheelbase is shorter. Combined with a higher turning angle, the Unimog has a smaller turning radius than before.
The implement carrier gets what's called a "synergistic traveling drive," the bonus being that drivers don't need to stop in order to use an attachment - a hydrostatic transmission works with the regular manual transmission at up to 31 kilometers per hour for seamless switching.

Mercedes A45 AMG in downhill battle with slipstream skateboarder

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

We're told it takes "performance, control and expression" to pilot a longboard skateboard down a mountain road, and that those happen to be the same values embodied in the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. That's how the two came to be combined in a black-and-white short film called Silver Slipstream.
There's no talking, no engine note and no color, just some music, a 'boarder and a car on a long cruise down the Franschhoek Pass in the Western Cape of South Africa." Despite that, it's actually a pretty entertaining video of the latest Mercedes-Benz hot hatch married with extreme sports. You can watch how it all goes down in the video below.
