This is a fun car to drive and it gets noticed everywhere it goes. I have owned it for 13 years and it has had only 2 previous owners. This 1967 230SL has very low mileage, 42,700 miles, and it has always been garaged here in the state of NH. The mileage is low partly because the 2nd owner had stored it for 12 years, until I bought it in 2000. I have put on less than 5000 miles. It has a Six Cylinder Engine and a Standard Shift 4-Speed Transmission. The color is the Mercedes Benz Orient Red, and it was repainted back in the 1980s with the original color. Paint is still nice. Chrome is ok too. Interior is saddle brown in color and the seats are covered with the indestructible MB Tex vinyl. Seats, rugs, dash, glass, etc. are all in MINT condition. I have maintained the car and here is a list of new parts that I have installed during my ownership: power steering pump, steering stabilizer, steering linkage bushings, inner and outer tie-rods, water pump and hoses, master cylinder re-built, front brakes, fuel pump, new fuel sending unit, stainless steel exhaust system, plug wires, steering box, high pressure power steering hose, all new belts, new Michelin tires, clutch cylinder sleeve, front brake calipers, all rubber brake lines, fuel tank, Nardi steering wheel, and speedometer cable. The car runs awesome. Removable hardtop comes off to reveal the canvas convertible top that is about 20 years old. I can see 2 dime size worn spots on the rag top, but since it is never driven in the rain, I have not replaced it. Other than the rag top, the only other flaw is the speedometer, when the car warms up, the needle "bounces" up and down. Tried to fix it but was unsuccessful. The 4 new Michelins have less than a thousand miles on them. I am available to answer any questions JIM 603-401-9236. Wonderful car. Serious bidders only, please. The car will be sold with a NH Bill of Sale. NH did not require a TITLE on a car this old, but I do have the current registration which I am happy to provide a copy of. Good Luck bidding. This is a NO RESERVE auction.

Zetsche's CEO tenure extended through 2016 at Daimler
Sun, 24 Feb 2013There appear to be two takes on Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche having his contract extended for three more years, to 2016. A report in The Detroit News quotes the chairman of Daimler's supervisory board, Manfred Bischoff, talking up the stability at the top, "With today's extensions of the contracts of Dieter Zetsche and Thomas Weber, we are maintaining the important continuity at the top executive level." Bischoff also stated that that Zetsche has a plan to "further enhance Daimler's overall performance."
Over at Reuters, though, the three-year extension was seen as a lack of complete confidence in Zetsche's plans, since his contract was supposedly meant to be extended by five years. A spokesman said the board decided to extend executive contracts by only three years if the person was 60 or would turn 60 during the contract, but that was news to observers. Zetsche wants to make Mercedes-Benz the top selling luxury manufacturer globally by 2020, but has fallen to third place behind Audi and BMW. It hasn't held the top spot 2005, and investors judged it valued at half that of BMW at the end of 2012 once Daimler's truck business was subtracted.
Analysts cites the fact that Daimler stock hasn't bested its rivals but twice in twelve years, and that the company revised its profit target downward last year by nearly one billion euros, warning of stagnant earnings this year and will miss its original margin target for 2013.
Chris Harris and David Coulthard wring out a Mercedes Fintail at the N"urburgring
Thu, 17 Oct 2013If there's one thing we've learned from the latest video from Drive, it's that the combination of Chris Harris and David Coulthard will produce some very quotable moments. Take this exchange, for example.
DC: "We are by some way the slowest."
CH: "But we're in a class of three cars, apparently."
In case you forgot, the Dubai Police supercar fleet is the coolest
Tue, Feb 10 2015Ever wonder why the Dubai Police have a fleet of vehicles worth millions and millions and millions of dollars? Why it has a Bugatti Veyron and a Bentley Continental and a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG with sirens and light bars? Well, here's the reason. This video shows the fleet on display on the Emirate's roads and highways, while also reaching out to the people the police are meant to protect. It's an impressive display of machinery, to be sure. Alongside the Bentley, Bugatti and Mercedes, we spy a Ferrari FF, a Brabus G-Wagen, a BMW M6, a Nissan GT-R, an Audi R8 and a McLaren MP4-12C (although the latest Dubai Police car, the Lexus RC F, is absent). The video even has a very cinematic look and feel to it, which works well with the night scenes and the blues-and-twos of the exotics cruisers.
