I'm selling my 1999 SL Mercedes convertible.  I got a ride in the car when it was brand new!  My best friend purchased the car new for his wife in 1999.  They sold me the car in 2004 or 05 with around 10,000 miles on it.  His wife hated it because it has such a sporty ride (AMG suspension and wheels).  It doesn't float, this car grabs the road and has amazing power.  I sold the car a couple years later to my lady friend in San Dimas, CA with approximately 14,000 miles on it.  She had her hip replaced last year, and it was difficult for her to get in and out of it, so I bought it back in March with approximately 34,000 miles on it.  I have enjoyed having it back, but I just bought a new car this week and need the room.

I have the original hard top, which is also in perfect condition and stored in my garage on a stand made to hold these hard tops.  I will include it in the sale as well.  I am happy to send photos of it to anyone that requests them.  Sorry, I couldn't post a photo of the car with the hard top, but it takes 2 people to put it on.  I also have the factory keys, 2 remote keys and a valet key.

The car has NEVER been smoked in, always garaged and hand washed.  It has also only had Mobile 1 synthetic oil it's whole life.

The brakes are fairly recent, as are the tires.  I recently had the mass air flow sensor replaced, and it has a new gas cap too.  The mechanic that worked on it said the engine is perfect as are the motor mounts.  My friend in California also had the AC compressor replaced.  The AC works awesome, as does everything on this car. 

There are no major cosmetic issues.  There is some normal wear and tear on a car of its age including: 2 small paint chips around the area where the gas goes in, there is a crack and a scrape to the underside of the front bumper - caused from pulling too close to those concrete things in a parking lot and then backing out.  I though about having that repaired, but frankly you cannot see it unless you're on the ground looking up.  The floor mats are fairly new, dark brown color so they show no dirt.  The leather is soft and supple, showing little if any sign of wear.  The car is in overall fabulous condition.  I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it.  This would be awesome for someone back east, as the car has never been driven in snow or ice and not even purposely in the rain!  Although, I will admit it's been rained on twice that I know of.

I think I've covered everything, but if you have any questions, I'll be happy to assist in any way I can. 

As far as shipping goes, the buyer will be responsible and I will cooperate and assist moving company.  OR you can pick it up yourself if you like.  I would be happy to pick you up at the airport and you can drive it home.

Serious buyers, please.  Thank you.  Certified funds only.  PayPal deposit required.

UK workers strand car on island of asphalt to keep working

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

Generally speaking, when you illegally park your car, you're likely to get ticketed and towed, but there is probably at least one motorist in Scotland who wishes that was the case. After workers had blocked off a portion of the parking lot for the Edinburgh Waverley railway station, the driver of this Mercedes-Benz S-Class reportedly moved some of the barriers to park in one of the empty spots.
Rather than having the vehicle towed, the work crew simply tore up the asphalt around the leaving just the one parking spot intact, and as you can see in the image above (posted to the Twitter account of Harold Norstad), the crew even built a small asphalt ramp so the car could get off its blacktop pedestal. Since this happened last week, there's no word as to whether the car was eventually moved or towed for the resurfacing work to continue.
Let this be a warning...

Mercedes GLE to debut in NY, will get plug-in variant

Mon, Jan 12 2015

On the eve of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, Dieter Zetsche, Chairman of Daimler AG, said that 2015 will be the "Year of the SUV" at Mercedes-Benz. This means a host of new and updated sport-utility and crossover models, kicked off with the debut of the GLE-Class Coupe (pictured above) – in 450 AMG Sport and Mercedes-AMG GLE63 variants – here in the Motor City. But there's far more in store throughout the year. First, Mercedes has confirmed it will debut the non-coupe GLE-Class – the M-Class replacement – at the New York Auto Show in April. It will share most of its architecture with the GLE Coupe revealed here in Detroit, but will also come with a plug-in hybrid option. Mercedes-Benz debuted an S-Class Plug-In Hybrid at the Los Angeles Auto Show last November, and will expand this technology to other core models in its range. First, we will see the C350 Plug-In Hybrid, which also makes its debut here in Detroit. Beyond that, Mercedes has confirmed that the GLE-Class will benefit from a plug-in option, as will the upcoming GLC-Class crossover – the renamed replacement for the GLK. No official timing has been given for the GLC, but Mercedes confirms that both it and its largest utility vehicle – the GLS-Class (currently known as the GL-Class) – will debut "later this year." Year of the SUV, indeed.

New Mercedes-Benz pickup to be called GLT?

Fri, Apr 17 2015

The Mercedes-Benz pickup will allegedly be called the GLT, and it won't be "a fat cowboy truck." That's according to the head of MB's truck project, former AMG boss Volker Mornhinweg, quoted by Car. We already knew that Mercedes would be teaming up with Renault-Nissan for its double-cab pickup, but until Car sat down with Mornhinweg, we were unsure of how the vehicle would be targeted. Aside from being neither fat nor cowboy like, the exec shed some light on the German brand's mindset behind the new truck. "We are not going to develop a fat cowboy truck for North America. After all, the big three – Ford, GM/GMC and Ram – already own about 90 percent of that market which typically absorbs in excess of two million units per year," Mornhinweg told Car. "In this cutthroat environment, newcomers like us would invariably fight an arduous uphill battle. That's why our focus is on a smaller and lighter pick-up truck which is already perceived as premium product in South America, Africa and the Middle East." While Mornhinweg wasn't the one to let slip on the new Mercedes truck's name, Car reports that it will wear the GLT badge. There's no mention of where the publication came up with that title, though, aside from "rumors." We've reached out to Mercedes-Benz for comment on the truck's name, and should they get back to us, we'll be sure to update this post.
