 Your bidding on a very low mileage, clean Mercedes-Benz.  Here is the story behind this car.  I'm currently the second owner of this vehicle.  The first person lived in New Jersey and leased it for three years and put approx. 10,000 miles on the car.  In 2010 the car was involved in an accident that required the front quarter panel, bumper, and I believe the hood, to be replaced.  The car was repaired with MB parts and was repaired very well.  There are no signs that this car was ever in an accident.  It runs perfectly with no squeaks or rattles.  Now for the frame/structural issue listed on Carfax.  Mercedes ran this car through the auction at which time the auction "reported" there was structural/frame damage.  Before I purchased the car I had it inspected to see the extent of the damage.  The inspection revealed that there wasn't any structural damage, but since it was reported that way Carfax can not remove that comment from their report.  I felt comfortable with the car and it drove perfectly so I bought it.  I've driven it for two years without a single mechanical issue.  The only service that has been performed has been the annual maintenance items (performed at MB Dealer) and they updated a module in the radio for the MBRACE system.   I put new Michelin tires on at 15,000 miles primarily because I didn't like the Continentals that came as OEM tires.  The Michelin's are a much better riding tire.  As I was preparing to sell the vehicle I didn't want to mislead anyone about the structure of this car so I had it inspected for a second time at a local auto repair center here in Arkansas.  They also confirmed that there isn't any structural damage to this car.  (I've attached a copy of their report along with the pictures)  I've tried to contact Carfax to get this issue resolved, but there isn't anything they can do.  So even though I have much  respect for Carfax, I realize they can't inspect each car and if there is an issue reported in error they still have to include it on the report.  That's the whole story behind the car.  Since the car has this "record" I realize that I can't sell it for what it really should go for.  I bought it at a discounted rate and I'm willing to sell it for a discounted rate as well.  I'm also willing to buy the car back within one week if the buyer were to uncover any structural damage that existed prior to the sale.  (Shipping would be the buyers responsibility)  This CLK 550 had an MSRP over $75,000 new.  It has every option available including the power trunk, A/C Seats, Windscreen, Nav, Permium 2 Pkg, and Bluetooth.  I'm only asking $25,900 and will listen to any reasonable offer.  If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to give me a call.  This is an amazing car for the money.  If you always wanted to own a Mercedes here is your chance without breaking the bank. 

Thanks for looking,

Here's today's round of auto plant closures in response to coronavirus

Fri, Mar 20 2020

More automakers have shuttered factories, as businesses everywhere work to slow the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus — and as the pandemic slows sales and disrupts parts supply chains. On Friday, the following closures were announced: • Volvo will close its factories in Sweden and the United States from March 26 to April 14. Volvo's U.S. facility, in Charleston, South Carolina, makes the S60 sedan. Its assembly plant in Torslanda, Sweden, turns out the XC90, SC60, and V90. Other Swedish facilities make engines and component parts. A Volvo factory in Ghent, Belgium, that builds the XC40 and V60 closed earlier this week and is expected to remain offline until April 6. Volvo's four factories in China have been reopened after a shutdown earlier this year. • Jaguar Land Rover announced that it will suspend production at its assembly plants in the UK over the coming week. The shutdown is expected to last until April 20. Elsewhere, production continues at the company's factories in India and Brazil, and JLR's joint-venture plant in China reopened at the end of February. • Bentley is closing its factory in Crewe, England, for four weeks, effective today. • Bugatti has put its atelier in Molsheim, France, on hiatus. No date was given for when assembly of its supercars might resume. • Mercedes-Benz on Monday will shut down its SUV factory in Alabama and its van assembly plant in South Carolina. Both will remain closed for a minimum of two weeks. Tesla yesterday revealed that it will suspend operations at its Fremont, California, vehicle assembly plant next week, on order from local officials there. Yesterday's factory closure announcements also included the U.S. assembly plants for Toyota (until April 6), Volkswagen (through March 29), Subaru (through March 29), and Hyundai (no time period specified). They join GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Nissan, and Harley-Davidson, which earlier this week announced the suspension of production at their facilities.

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.

2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris hits US in October, priced from $28,950*

Wed, Mar 4 2015

A Mercedes is hardly what we'd call a budget proposition for most, but everything being relative, what's the cheapest Mercedes you can buy in America? That used to be the C-Class, but not at the $40k it's pushing these days. The CLA or GLA start at over $31k, so one of those must be it... right? Keep trying. And the Smart Fortwo doesn't count. No, the most cost-effective Mercedes you can get in America is the one you're looking at here. It's the new Metris van, and it starts at just $28,950 (*plus a $995 destination fee). Joining the Sprinter (which starts at upwards of $35k), the Metris is Benz's new midsize van – filling a niche in between small vans like the Nissan NV200 or Ford Transit Connect and fullsize ones like the aforementioned Sprinter. It's about as long as the Dodge Caravan-based Ram C/V, but narrower, taller and with significantly more payload and cargo space. Mercedes calls it "right-sized," and evidently hopes commercial drivers and fleet operators will agree. Now if you've never heard the name Metris, you were probably distracted by all the glitz and glamor when Mercedes presented four of them at the SEMA show late last year. But that's alright, because it's a new nameplate: it's essentially the same as the Vito sold overseas, where it will continue carrying that same name, while being sold in North America as the Metris. Both cargo and passenger versions will be offered, the latter starting at $32,500 (plus that $995 destination fee). Power comes from a four-cylinder gasoline engine driving 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission. It's also got all the electronic bells and whistles you'd expect from a Mercedes, including fuel-efficiency and safety equipment – but stopping short, of course, of the luxury features. This is not that kind of Mercedes, and the luxed-up V-Class version offered overseas won't be making it Stateside. The Metris is being showcased this week at the NTEA work truck show in Indianapolis, with deliveries set to commence this coming October through a network of over 200 Mercedes van dealers across America, who will offer it alongside the larger Sprinter.
