One of the truly great Mercedes models of all time. These Athletic handling, Classic Styled 108 Body vehicles with a 4.5 could cruise the Autobahn all day at 100mph in comfort. Tough as nails and solid as a rock with doors that produce that wonderful "whong" sound when closed.

Drive this car for an hour and you cannot walk away without asking: "What the hell have automotive engineers been doing for the last 40 years besides dreaming up electronics crap that only their Dealers can work on?"

This Vehicle is fully equipped, sans Sunroof, and everything works as it did when new to include Ice Cold Factory AC. original Becker Europa Stereo Radio, Clock, Power window lifts and vent windows.

Carpeting, Seats, Headliner, Wood, Dash Pad & Steering Wheel are original and flawless with the exception of the L/F door window "sill" that has a vertical hairline fracture on the vinyl covering.

Tool Kit is complete in the original canvas bag. A Complete set of books in the original plastic pouch to include Becker Europa books, Hirsthmann antenna key, Kangol lap belt instructions and a sizable stack of maintenance records/ repair orders are included. New period correct Cocoa mats in the proper color, a M-B First Aid Kit and a car cover are also included in the sale of the vehicle.

The Shocks (x4) and Radiator have recently been replaced together with a full service. The vehicle preforms flawlessly without any mystery creaks or other noises. Tires are matching high tread in the proper size.

The engine compartment is unmolested with no modifications and has not been cleaned for sale. Trunk is without signs of any rust - original trunk mat is not torn or stained but is brittle and requires care if lifted.

I acquired the vehicle for my collection with the original paint that was badly faded. Condition and pedigree of the vehicle demanded a complete refinishing of the exterior surfaces (moldings off) which was preformed recently ($4800) NO METAL WORK.

If you are a seasoned collector or just looking for that one special car to drive on special occasions or daily, this one should be on your list, as it just does everything right.

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class caught totally undisguised

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Based on the lightly camouflaged spy shots of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class we've seen lately, it hasn't taken a vivid imagination to picture what the next iteration of this big luxury sedan will look like. Even so, we now we have our first unobstructed views of the redesigned S-Class, codenamed W222, as it has just been caught out flaunting for some promo shots.
The first thing we notice about the new S-Class design is the disappearance of the last generation's flared wheel arches. Yet the new design adds even more character with bodyside creases similar to the CLS-Class and some elements reminiscent of 2007's F700 Concept, including the massive grille and vertical LED taillights. Other key details include a large panoramic roof and the narrow exhaust outlets, but the large LED-trimmed headlights and the aggressive front fascia are probably the biggest departure from the current design. With these spy shots, we also catch a blurry shot of the interior, but we've seen a practically uncovered look at the new S-Class' cabin back in January.
Overall, the next S-Class sports an expressive and premium new look, but as far as all-new designs go, it's quite conservative - a move no doubt fitting for these lean financial times.

Firing of M-B boss upheld

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Ernst Lieb, the disgraced former CEO of American operations for Mercedes-Benz, will not be getting any more money from the Silver Arrow'd teat. His wrongful dismissal suit against MB's parent company, Daimler, was tossed out of a German appeals panel. This, followed the initial rejection by a lower court last year.
According to court documents acquired by Automotive News, Lieb was found to have "accepted payments of substantial value to which he - as he was aware - had no claim."
Lieb took over American operations from former CEO Paul Halata in September of 2006. Reports surfaced in October of 2011 that Lieb was dismissed from his posting at MB, with a variety of rumors swirling. Eventually, news broke that financial wrong doing was responsible for the German's firing.

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.
