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

Mercedes plotting E-Class Maybach, next A-Class for the US?
Thu, Jan 22 2015Mercedes-Benz has opened 2015 by hinting at a host of new products. Dieter Zetsche nudged the idea that there'll be a Maybach-branded SUV. AMG chief Tobias Moers told Motor Trend that "We want to be seen by the public on the same level as the other sports car maker in Germany" when asked if his crew was working on a car to rival the Porsche 918 Spyder. That and a few other tidbits have people thinking that we'll eventually see some sort of celestial AMG supercar. The latest handful of hints came from Mercedes USA CEO Steve Cannon during an interview on the marque's move to Atlanta. Cannon told Automotive News that we'd "see more from the Maybach brand," leaving the impression that there "could" be an E-Class draped in the superluxury trim. If such came to pass, there's plenty of pricing room between the E and the S-Class to slot a higher trim in. The top non-AMG E-Class starts at $62,350, the S-Class opens the bidding at $94,400. Even if you slapped the E-Class with the $23,000 premium it takes to make an S600 a Maybach S600, you've still got plenty of breathing room between the midsized and full-sized sedans. At the antipodal end, Cannon told AN that we could get a front-wheel-drive Mercedes smaller than anything here right now. That leaves the A-Class, since we've already got the B-Class. Getting the next-gen A-Class here would help with CAFE numbers, and since it will be built in the new factory in Aguascalientes, Mexico it won't have far to travel to get here. We're told it won't be like the current car, however; Cannon said, "The A-Class will change from what you have seen and from what you are used to." We hope that's a good thing, because we really like the current car. Related Video:
Mercedes-Maybach rolls out new S, GLS and EQS SUV Night Series
Wed, May 24 2023Mercedes-Maybach is embracing a new look for what it hopes will be a new generation of buyers — one keen to embrace its new electrified luxury models. The new Night Series will be offered on all three models in the current Maybach lineup, with the S-Class and EQS SUV variants arriving later this year and the GLS following in early 2024. While the execution off each Night Series is dependent on the model in question, they share a few common elements. Their headlights, for instance, are all embellished with dark chrome Maybach logos on rose gold trim. You'll find that dark chrome just about anywhere you'd normally spot bling, from the grille and exterior trim to the coating on the rear exhaust finishers. And then there are those wheels. I don't know what to say, quite honestly. Just look at them. And while you're at it, peep at the running boards on the EQS SUV. While the cars shown here are quite uniform, differentiation will come in the form of finish choices and further individual customization. All three are offered with the Obsidian Black/Mojave Silver two-tone combination shown here. The EQS SUV will also be available in Obsidian Black and Manufaktur Diamond White finishes, the S-Class can be done up in various grey, black and white hues, and the GLS can be had in white or Obsidian Black. Inside you'll find herringbone-patterned, open-pore wood with aluminum accents along with another smattering of dark chrome. The EQS SUV and GLS can optioned with with Nappa leather in two-tone Crystal White/Black Pearl or just plain Black Pearl. In the S-Class, you can do Nappa leather in either Deep White/Black Pearl or straight Black Pearl. Look for more on the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class and EQS SUV Night Series soon, with more to come on the GLS variant as its arrival draws closer. Related video: 2022 Mercedes-Maybach S 580 walkaround
Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list
Fri, Apr 17 2015Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.
