California Legal 1985 Mercedes-Benz 280 GE with 88,1xx miles: It is equipped with a Eurospec M110 2.8L inline 6 engine with K-Jet fuel injection, 4 speed manual transmission, 4 wheel drive system with front, center and rear locking differentials. The gears shift smoothly and the 4x4 system works marvelously. The geolander tires have about 10,000 miles on them and have plenty of tread left. The a/c blows ice cold. Overall this gwagon is in excellent condition. This 1985 280
GE was imported to the US by Europa (c. 2000) and was purchased by myself in
November 2010. In 2011 the g-wagon was brought to meet California’s strict
emissions standards by the CA Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) thus made 50
state legal in 2011 - an expensive and time consuming process required of all
out of state grey market vehicles “imported” to CA. Since then it has served as
my daily driver. These vehicles are well known for their off road
capabilities, used extensively by NATO and German armed forces throughout the
world. This gwgaon has been driven off road only a handful of times, limited to
dirt fire roads. I have used it extensively for lake runs and every summer it
has comfortably towed the boat and jet skis 1200 miles back and forth to Lake
Powell without complaint. No matter how you plan to use this gwagon it will be
an all around great vehicle. In 2012 I grew dissatisfied with the low power of the stock 280
M110 engine and opted to have a Mercedes M110 Eurospec engine installed. For
those unfamiliar with the Eurospec it delivers about 40 horsepower more than
the standard Mercedes 280 M110. It operates at a higher compression than the
standard 280 and uses 91 octane. The
added horsepower has really made a huge difference on the freeway – tops out
around 95MPH - and when towing. The
engine swap was done by Attwood European in Phoenix, AZ. All maintenance has been carried out by certified Mercedes mechanics
with strong track records maintaining these original gwagons. Receipts are
available and can be provided upon request.
The last service was completed on June 12 and is due for the next at
89,000 miles. During the 78,000 mile service my technician found the rear main
seal was leaking slightly. I have notice some days it will release about a
teaspoon amount of oil when sitting overnight, while other days I won’t notice
anything. Shipping is available; while I will not be able to provide
quotes, I will personally insure safe delivery to the shipping agent. VIN: WDB46023317030355 Please feel free to email me with any questions. *The stereo system is loaded with XM satellite radio and full iPod

Car2go introduces four-seat Mercedes B-Class vehicles
Tue, Sep 29 2015Easily identified by its huge fleet of blue-and-white Smart Fortwos in cities around the world, Daimler's Car2go car sharing service is growing in Canada – both in the number of vehicles and the doors that they have. For the first time in North America, the company is renting a model with a usable backseat thanks to a new pilot program bringing 75 examples of the Mercedes-Benz B-Class to Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary. The point of adding these hatchbacks to the ranks is to offer an option for those seeking more than the paltry room that the ForTwo offers. Car2Go imagines people using the B-Class to haul extra people in the back or just for the added cargo space. The vehicles wear the same blue-and-white look as the rest of the fleet, but they're specially identified for users in the smartphone app. Best of all, for this pilot program, their rental cost is the same 41 cents per minute as the tinier Smarts. The car sharing service has already started testing the waters of offering the B-Class in Germany. Its Car2Go Black pilot program was announced last year and placed 100 of the hatchbacks in both Berlin and Hamburg. car2go Just Got A Lot More Spacious Carsharing Leader Introduces Four-Door Vehicles For The First Time In North America AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 28, 2015 /CNW/ -- car2go N.A., LLC, the market leader for one-way carsharing in Canada, announced today that car2go will be introducing 75 four-door vehicles to its fleet in Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary. The pilot program, which officially launches today, provides over 300,000 car2go members in Canada exclusive access to the Mercedes B-Class vehicle, a roomy, versatile alternative to car2go's signature smart fortwo vehicle. The new four-door vehicles are also equipped with the latest car2go technology, allowing members the ability to control their entire car2go experience seamlessly through the official car2go smartphone app. car2go will be introducing 75 four-door vehicles to its fleet in Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary. CLICK TO TWEET: car2go introduces Mercedes vehicles in Canadian markets for the first time http://c2g.cc/Gdscbf "As our members embark on new life chapters – whether moving to a new residence or growing their family – we want to continue providing an affordable and convenient transportation option that allows them to go wherever life takes them," said Paul DeLong, President and CEO of car2go N.A.
Experience the New York Auto Show by drone
Fri, Apr 10 2015The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.

10 most memorable cars and SUVs of 2019
Tue, Dec 24 2019It's no surprise that a car reviewer will drive a large number of cars over the course of a year. Indeed, when the clock strikes midnight on Dec 31, I will have driven 75 new cars, trucks and SUV this year (and one old Peugeot) over the course of weekly evaluation loans and first drive events. That sure seems like a lot. Some definitely got more attention than others, and some came and went without leaving much of an impression – I completely forgot I drove a Kia Forte. Yet in the spirit of this day, I thought I'd pick the 10 that I would love to see under the Christmas tree tomorrow morning. You know, just in case you were looking to get me something. I'll also throw in a couple disappointments that were memorable for the wrong reasons. They'd get sent back to the store on Boxing Day. Lexus LC 500 Pictured below and resplendent in its Flare Yellow metallic paint, the car that would reach highest on my list is the divine Lexus LC 500. As a devout lover of GT cars, the LC ticks all the boxes. Muscular and characterful engine? V8, check. Beautifully made and memorable interior? It's gorgeous, to hell with Remote Touch. Check. Comfortable and reasonably practical? Superb seats and, uh, yeah. Makes me want to stand there and stare at it? You bet. Though I long figured my heart would say LC but my head "Porsche 911," after this go-around, that's no longer the case. LC, pretty please. 2020-lexus-lc500-f34-2 View 19 Photos Polestar 1 I actually feel lucky that I got to drive the Polestar 1. Only 150 will be produced each year, and it's a far more special thing than it would initially appear. And that's despite initially appearing to be a beautiful, classic two-door GT car with a roof so rakish it's only possible because it's made of carbon fiber. That itÂ’s a massively powerful plug-in hybrid with more all-electric range than any other PHEV is a thick dollop of whipped cream on a slice of Toscakaka. You know, Swedish dessert, Swedish car. Fine, I'll stick to Ikea references. Polestar1_Launch_SanFrancisco-0014 View 44 Photos Volvo V60 Cross Country Speaking of Sweden, did I drive this car off the road there? Sure did! And despite this, the V60 Cross Country scratches that certain wagon itch and looks sensational to boot. I wish it were available with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, but it's best not to get greedy at Christmas.
