1969 Mercedes Benz 250 Sedan on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:77004
Location:

Marfa, Texas, United States

Marfa, Texas, United States

This car has been garaged or under cover for most of the last 10 years. I am selling this car for a friend. i have had the car for 2 weeks. I have driven it around town a few times and everything works as it should. Paint is great, no dents. Looks great from near and far. Interior is very nice. Drivers seat has some tears on the seat part, dash has a couple cracks, everything else looks pretty great. Odometer stopped at 77004 miles sometime in the last 10 years. This car has been in Marfa, Texas for the last 10 years (it has never left) and has been driven less than 1000 miles so we can assume it has less than 80000 actual miles on it. Original Becker AM/FM radio still works if you can believe that. The driver's side fog lamp lens is missing. The assembly will be in the trunk if you want to get another lens and put back on the car. It starts up every time and drives great even after sitting for a week. No mechanical problems that I can find. When going around corners sometimes there is a clunk noise coming from trunk area, doesn't affect performance of vehicle. There are some cracks in the paint on passenger side rear quarter panel (not very noticeable) - included a couple photos of that. I assume there was some body work done there well over a decade ago. Just telling potential buyers all the little things I noticed. This is not a big deal and isn't something that needs to be dealt with any time soon or ever, really. Included in auction are 2 more hubcaps in trunk and another grill housing + the fog lamp assembly. This car would be best as a town car. The previous owner says the car doesn't like to go much over 60 on the highway. I'm sure that could be remedied with an adjustment but it's great for getting around in style in town so maybe it's fine like this forever. depending on how you want to use the car. Don't recommend trying to drive this car from Marfa to your final destination at this point. Trailering or car transporter would be best. I'll help in any way i can with car transport company communications.

New Die Hard movie wrecked 132 cars in $11 million chase scene [w/video]

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

It would seem the act of dying hard brings with it lots of wanton destruction of the four-wheeled kind. According to John Moore, director of A Good Day To Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis, There were 132 (cars) that could never be used again. Another 518 required a lot of work. And damn right there were some good cars there... That's the fun of it."
Please join us in one great big collective sigh. Done? Okay, let's continue.
"With Die Hard it's about how audacious the action is," says Moore. "So you have to drive over a Lamborghini. An actual one. And yes it hurts me. I'm a car fanatic." Yeah. Sounds like it hurt really bad... though not as bad as the final tally after all the carnage had been counted: "Someone showed me the numbers on the car chase and soup to nuts, you put it all together it was like an $11 million sequence."

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale

Fri, 10 May 2013

There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.

Mercedes-Benz GLK coupe to get 2016 intro

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Radio chatter around the emerging small, premium crossover coupe genre has thus far been dominated by the Land Rover Evoque and the Mini Paceman. According to a report in Car, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class (shown above) has received its invitation to the party and will spend the next three years getting ready: it's said that two-door variant of the crisply-angled CUV is coming in 2016, along with a redesign befitting its sleeker intentions.
To be based on the MRA platform - the rear-drive version of the company's three new modular platforms, it will also support the coming 2013 S-Class and could eventually get an AMG version to help it compete with segment offerings like the forthcoming Porsche Macan. Not much else is known about it beyond its name: Car says it will be called the GLC, a friendly nomenclature we remember best as a Mazda hatchback (allegedly for "Good Little Car"). Internet oldtimers may remember the Mazda GLC as the predecessor to the 323 (which in turn came before today's Mazda3). Either way, the GLC is not to be confused with the larger upcoming BMW X6 rival based on the ML-Class (reportedly called GLS) which is also said to still be in the works, or the front-drive based GLA, a model also edging toward production.
