This 1970 Mercedes Benz 280SL automatic with a new and very cold a/c system is my wife's car. She has thoroughly enjoyed it, especially driving around on warm summer evenings.

The beautiful condition is reflected by the very few miles on the odometer. She is not the original owner, so I can't verify the correct mileage, however, it appears to be accurate. Recently the SL has had new tires, brake lines and has just returned from the local car detailer. The complete a/c unit has been replaced and it works, unlike other SL's which have the original unit. The red paint is about 4 years old and shows extremely well. There are a couple of miniscule highway chips but no dents or door dings. Can't even get them to show up on the pics.

The black canvas top is relatively new with only one very small wear mark on the lower driver side caused from putting the top up and down into the top boot. Rear window is nice and clear with no yellowing. It does have a red Pagoda top that matches the body paint. She said it has a piece of chrome missing but I couldn't determine what the missing piece is after a close inspection. The leather interior is a dark and deep maroon which contrasts well with the exterior paint. No tears, rub marks or wear locations. A few months ago she had the valves adjusted, had a tune up which included an oil/filter change.

This 280SL has the larger 6 cylinder and is quite peppy. Not a rocket, but then it is driven casually around town. The engine bay is nice and clean with no evidence of oil or other fluid leaks. It is being sold because she moved up to an SL500 and this is now an extra vehicle for us. Note that Connecticut is a non title state for cars over 25 years of age. The previous owners clear signed off title will be provided as will a notarized bill of sale.

I will entertain reasonable offers as long as the buyer has the cash available to conclude the transaction. No low ball offers will be entertained. A Paypal deposit of $500 will be required immediately when sold. A wire transfer for the balance is preferable but if a bank check is sent for payment it will have to clear before the SL will be delivered.

This is a wonderful SL and continues to increase in value each year. Better investment than real estate.

Good luck in your offers and I will respond to all questions.

LA 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.

The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber - they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.

2015 Mercedes-Benz S550 PHEV offers the best of both worlds it's ready to conquer

Thu, Nov 20 2014

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class just keeps growing – both in terms of dimensions and in terms of variants. Nevermind the S-Class Coupe for a moment and focus only on the sedan: in North America alone, you can get the big Benz in S550, S600, S63 and S65 spec, and at the Los Angeles Auto Show this year, Daimler has rolled out the new Maybach version as well. But if it's a more environmentally friendly way to woosh around town in serene luxury that you're after, you'll want to look at the new S550 Plug-In Hybrid. Joining Daimler's growing range of battery-powered models alongside the E400 Hybrid, B-Class Electric Drive and Smart ED (the latter soon to be replaced by an all-new version), the S550 PHEV is the German automaker's first plug-in hybrid. It was first announced over a year ago and made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show last year, but now the US-spec car is making its North American debut in LA. Promising "the performance of a V8 and the fuel consumption of a compact model," the S550 PHEV pairs a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 to an 80-kW electric motor, the S550 PHEV packs a combined 436 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque to reach 62 in just 5.2 seconds, top out at 130 miles per hour or drive up to 20 miles on electric mode alone. On the European combined cycle, it'll return an impressive 84 miles per gallon, all the while never skimping on the luxury. Scope it out in our gallery of photos from the show floor in LA and delve into the details in the press release below. First PLUG-IN HYBRID with a star: S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID The new Mercedes-Benz S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID blends an ultramodern hybrid drive configuration with the unique innovations and the luxurious equipment and appointments of the S-Class. The luxury sedan impresses with exceptional dynamism and efficiency. Thanks to standard pre-entry climate control it also offers unique climate comfort. The first certified three-liter luxury sedan in the world is a further milestone on the road to emission-free mobility. "The S550 PLUG-IN HYBRID is the first luxury sedan with the performance of a V8 and the fuel consumption of a compact model. The greatest challenge in this is to translate efficiency into superior performance. In this respect there is a highly interesting parallel with our successful Formula 1 racing car, which likewise has a turbocharged V6 engine and a high-tech hybrid drive," says Prof. Dr.
