You dont find rust free examples of 40 year old cars that often. This car has been in Utah and Colorado and stored inside at that. It has been lovingly cared for by the prior two owners and myself.
Body- extremely clean/rust and corrosion free. If you have a keen eye for detail, you will notice that all of the original clips and hardware have the correct finish on them, undamaged. There are a few small dings and scratches here and there but they do not distract from this super shiny example of the classic 107 Mercedes body. It comes with both tops, the hardtop and the almost unused softop with clear back windows. The bright work is in great condition as well. The glass is in very good condition with no pitting, cracks, or chips. Fit and finish-the doors, hood, and trunk shut with the thud of a bank vault. Weatherstripping is still pliable and in good condition.
Interior- Black MB Tex is in extremely good condition as well. No sun damage or visible wear to the dash, seats, original carpet, door panels, or sun visors. Power windows work as they should and the air conditioning blows cold air.
Mechanical- Wow, she drives great! You can let the wheel go and it tracks down the road like its on rails. Starts very easily and blows no smoke. Looking inside the oil cap and the engine is clean and bright! Looks like new. I just replaced the muffler with OEM style unit, fan clutch and brand new Michelin tires on the orig wheels/wheel covers. I have a decent amount of service records dating back 2 owners.
The radio is not orignial but does have CD and bluetooth capability. Speakers were added to the back shelf area but were installed without damaging or cutting.
I have sold numerous vehicles and vintage motorcycles on EBAY and continue to maintain a 100 percent satisfaction rating. Please ask me any questions you have about this car-I will describe or send additional information if you ask for it.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut
Wed, 17 Apr 2013With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.
Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013
Sun, 15 Sep 2013When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
2013 Airstream Interstate 3500 EXT
Mon, 19 Aug 2013LA To The Grand Canyon In The Mercedes-Benz Of RVs
Piloting an 8,500-pound motorized house down the highway is far from my idea of fun, yet inexplicably, I'm enjoying myself. My grin has nothing to do with my camper's handling, as this heavily accoutered Mercedes-Benz Sprinter drives like a 25-foot long breadbox. My smile has nothing to do with on-road stability, as the ten-foot-tall, slab-sided vehicle reacts to wind gusts like the vertical stabilizer on a Boeing jet. My delight has nothing to do with its throttle or braking response, either, as both are as numb as your forehead after the eighth beer.
This monstrosity makes me happy for one reason - my passengers are undeniably having a good time.
