2001 Mercedes-benz Clk430 Base Convertible 2-door 4.3l on 2040-cars
Henderson, Nevada, United States

Up for auction is my 2001
Mercedes Benz CLK-430 AMG Convertible. I traded this car to some good friends
of mine for a BMW 750il sport about 4 months ago. They are seniors and
this was the wife's car for nice days. Unfortunately, her mobility has
been compromised over the years and she was no longer able to get in and out of
this car due to it being so low. They really liked my BMW and asked if I
would trade.. So as a favor I said yes.... I miss my BMW. Anyway, I don't need
this car so here it is for sale.
The car has a salvage title
due to marginal front and rear damage.. My friends purchased the car from a
friend of theirs who was the original owner. It was involved in a slow
speed accident up in Napa, California. It was pushed from the rear into
the car in front of it at a signal. I viewed the car when it was brought
down here and it was fully functional and really only had minor bumper damage
and the hood was bent around the grill area. They had the rear bumper and
the hood replaced. I do know that the front bumper was repaired as it
wasn't the bad. I really am not sure why it was salvaged.. it was a
simple repair and really didn't cost much. The car was put on a laser
frame machine and checked for any damage before it was repaired and it was
deemed that there was no damage or movement at all to the body. All of
the door gaps are factory. Everything including the top works and fits
perfect and required NO repair due to it's minor accident. That will tell
you that the damage was marginal..
The car is the factory
black out AMG sport edition. (Actually a factory black metallic. It
"appears" black, but is actually a deep dark charcoal grey...a rare
color). It does have many unique Mercedes options as you can see in the
pictures including the rare, upgraded factory Bose stereo with GPS and CD
changer in the trunk. Also has the adaptive stability control for far better
handling than a standard CLK. Comes with rear factory deluxe wind screen
package with complete rear seat screens and a rare set of factory rubber heavy
duty Mercedes all weather CLK floor mats. Everything works properly. Ice
cold A/C. I know that the climate control panel was just professionally
replaced with a rebuilt unit. Per my friend, it recently underwent full
service including:
1. Spark plugs 2. Valve cover and breather
gaskets/seals 3. New radiator about 6
months ago with cooling system flush and factory Mercedes coolant installed. 4. New belt and tensioner 5. New water pump and
thermostat at time of radiator 6. oil and filter within
the last 500 miles 7. Transmission flush and
service with factory Mercedes filter and fluid. 8. New brakes on all 4
corners with factory pads 300 miles ago. 9. Brand new complete set
of Continental Extreme Contact Directional tires- all 4 with 500 miles 10.New air filters 11.New cabin filter 12.New top of the line
Interstate battery made specifically for these cars.
I am sure there is more,
but this is all I can remember from my conversation with my friend. They
are very particular and always have their cars repaired and serviced with
factory parts and fluid. Take a look at the pictures.. you can see it is
a very clean car as it has been garaged as long as my friends have had it and I
believe it was garaged in Napa.. It has always been owned by seniors, so it has
never been abused, raced, or neglected. It has really only been spoiled.
I think that is why my friends decided to buy it from their friend and
have it repaired. Drives straight, quiet, and solid.
HAS THE RARE EUROPEAN BLUE
GLASS OPTION!!
If you
are looking for a beautiful Mercedes convertible and the rare AMG model, then
this is it. Absolutely clean chassis and suspension. No leaks ever!
Yes it has a salvage title, but only due to a lazy insurance rep. Didn't have
any major damage and you can tell when you see and drive the car! I am selling
the car as I simply have no use for it. I only traded them for my
absolutely beautiful 750il sport "Die another Day" model in the
rarest of all optional colors (Did I mention that I miss my BMW?) as a favor as
they are good friends of mine and were fearful of having strangers over to
their house to see the car if they sold it themselves, being seniors. Look at
the pictures, ask any questions you can think of, and make an offer. It
is being sold under value due to the technicality of the salvage title.
A rare change to get a great price on a very rare Mercedes Cabriolet..
Ver nice, used car that has been cared for and in great condition.. Draws
admires wherever you drive her... she just glows. Current title and
registration in my name and comes with a current california emissions/smog
test. Passed perfectly clean! |

Race recap: 2016 Belgian Grand Prix is a dozen angry laps
Mon, Aug 29 2016The calm of the Formula One summer break ended with the tumult of the Belgian Grand Prix. The first two days included unusual tire pressures and grid penalties; Mercedes-AMG Petronas' Lewis Hamilton started 21st because of a 55-place grid penalty for engine and gearbox changes, McLaren's Fernando Alonso started 22nd due to a 60-place penalty for the same offenses. The bedlam rolled right into what was effectively an 11-or 12-lap race. Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg took off from pole and the cameras barely bothered with him until he took the checkered flag 44 laps later. Red Bull's Max Verstappen bogged from second on the grid, got swallowed by Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen on the way to Turn 1, then attempted to recover by sticking his Red Bull's nose between Raikkonen's sidepod and the apex at the first corner. Vettel, who didn't see Verstappen, turned into La Source leaving only enough room for Raikkonen. Three cars don't fit in a space for two cars. Vettel spun, Raikkonen and Verstappen clobbered one another and all three drivers had to pit for repairs. Force India's Nico Hulkenberg zig-zagged his way into second ahead of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo, Williams' Valtteri Bottas, and Sergio Perez in the second Force India. On Lap 6 Kevin Magnussen lost his Renault at Raidillon at the top of Eau Rouge and flew backward into an enormous crash. Magnussen escaped with just a cut ankle. The Safety Car paraded the field for four laps before officials red flagged the race to repair the barriers. When racing resumed on Lap 10, Rosberg led Ricciardo, Hulkenberg, Alonso, and Hamilton. Ricciardo stayed ahead of Hamilton to keep second place at the end of the race, Hamilton easily got around Alonso and Hulkenberg to lock up third. Hulkenberg – who'd given up second to Ricciardo by pitting during the Safety Car period – earned another career-best fourth position ahead of teammate Perez in fifth, followed by Vettel and Alonso on recovery drives, Bottas, Raikkonen, and Felipe Massa taking 10th in the second Williams. Rosberg reignited his Driver's Championship charge with the victory, closing to nine points of leader Hamilton. We could argue that Hamilton had an equally good day by driving from 21st to third, limiting his loss to only 10 points. About that Verstappen, though... We've seen far more experienced drivers attempt the same move Verstappen made into Turn 1 – Raikkonen on Bottas in Russia in 2015, for instance.
Dealers mobilize to protect their margins from automaker subscription services
Fri, Aug 24 2018Six individual auto brands — Lincoln, Cadillac, Porsche, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo — have established or are trialing a vehicle subscription service in the U.S. Three third-party companies — Flexdrive, Clutch and Carma — run brand-agnostic subscription services. And three automakers — Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and General Motors — have also launched short-term rental services. Dealers, afraid of how these trends might affect their margins, are building political and lawmaking campaigns to protect their revenue streams. So far, three states are investigating automaker subscriptions, and Indiana has banned any such service until next year. It's certain that those three states are the first fronts in a long political and legal battle. Powerful dealer franchise laws mandate the existence of dealers and restrict how automakers are allowed to interact with customers to sell a vehicle. On top of that, Bob Reisner, CEO of Nassau Business Funding & Services, said, "Dealers and their associations are among the strongest political operators in many states. They as a group are difficult for state politicians to vote against." In California earlier this year, the state Assembly debated a bill with wide-ranging provisions to protect against what the California New Car Dealers Association called "inappropriate treatment of dealers by manufacturers." One of those provisions stipulated that subscription services need to go through dealers, but that item got stripped out when dealers and manufacturers agreed to discuss the matter further. In Indiana, Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a moratorium on all subscription programs by dealers or manufacturers until May 1, 2019, to give legislators more time to investigate. Dealers in New Jersey have taken their campaign to the state capitol, asking that the cars in subscription programs get a different classification for registration purposes. Automakers run the current subscription services and own the vehicles. Sign-ups and financial transactions happen online or through apps, leaving dealers to do little more than act as fulfillment centers to various degrees, with little legal recourse as to compensation amounts when they're called on to deliver or service a car. That's a bad base to build on for business owners who've sunk millions of dollars into their operations.
