For sale is a 1981 Mercedes Benz 300D. Finished in Astral Silver Metallic which was the color first introduced on the Mercedes 300sl Gullwing. Interior color is a Twin Pacific Blue Mercedes Benz textile. There have been many recent improvements to this classic Mercedes. The engine and many other systems were restored at 200,000 miles and i have recently spent $3,000.00 on parts and maintenance at the Mercedes dealership in anticipation for the sale. This car was also celebrity owned and for its entire life has been kept in a temperature controlled garage. The Mercedes classic center would be jealous of this car, and i have received many compliments from my local Mercedes Benz club members on the condition! Anyone who knows Mercedes diesels knows this is the real deal. The W123 is refered to by most as the best Mercedes EVER!!! If you are looking for a stunning 1980's Mercedes then look no futher! This is the real McCoy and has many more decades of life left in it.
As you can see by the pictures this car has been babied its entire life. This car was consistently stored for all winter months and always had a fresh coat of wax. For the full list of refurbishments please call me but here are a few. Professional detailing, new Bosch car battery, new hood insulation pad, all correct maintenance services for the mileage including oil change, valve adjustment, motor mounts, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, injection pump cleaning service, fuel treatment, and all bulbs were checked and replaced. The last owner was so OCD and meticulous about maintenance that he actually had a pair of wrenches custom bent to mimic the ones from the dealership so he could do his own valve adjustments. I have an extra set of navy blue mats and some cup holders that i am also including. Comes with three distinct Mercedes keys and handy dandy bottle opener.
There are no rips in the seats or carpets and even though it is an older vehicle is more comfortable to ride in than many modern day cars. Engine starts right up in hot or cold weather, transmission shifts effortlessly. Check out my videos, just email me for the links!!! I do a walk around of the car and i get in start it and take it for a spin.
I have all my receipts(even more then were in the pictures) from the maintenance and tons of repair records and extra information on this W123. This Mercedes is in amazing condition for its age, but is not without minor blemishes. There is a minor dent in the back left quarter panel and some paint chipped off in two small places near the fuel door. Both spots are smaller then my pinky fingernail. Clean auto check/Carfax and title, and i will be happy to overnight the title to the new owner as soon as receipt of payment is received. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to give me a call 484-885-3168 or send me an email.
This car is sold as is where is with no warranties expressed or implied and i will require a signed bill of sale for insurance purposes before the car ships out. As far as shipping is concerned any expenses are the responsibility of the buyer but i may be able to give some direction on which shippers to use depending on your location. I will expect full payment within 72 hours of purchase by either cash in person, bank wire transfer or certified bank check. Pickup of vehicle should be within two weeks of purchase unless another arrangement is made. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time and charge a storage fee if pickup is delayed without permission of the seller. Again please don't hesitate to call or email!!!
Thanks,
Nate :)

Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
Mercedes rules out hybrid supercar, promises SLS successor
Sat, 16 Mar 2013The recent Geneva Motor Show was a festival of hypercars, with the presence of not one, but three over-the-top debuts: the Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LeFerrari. The latter two have hitched their carbon fiber bumpers to the electrification bandwagon by using hybrid-electric powertrains not entirely unlike the propulsion systems we've come to know in cars like the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Volt. Does that mean the flow of electrons up the four-wheeled food chain will eventually consume our hallowed supercars? Not if AMG has anything to say about it.
AMG Director of Vehicle Development Tobias Moers recently confirmed that not only will there be a successor to the Mercedes-Benz performance division's SLS AMG, he notes that its internal combustion engine will most definitely not be sharing living quarters with an electric drivetrain. Instead, AMG plans to focus on further pushing the power and efficiency envelope of the internal combustion engine and advancing the use of lightweight materials to achieve their goals. The first example of this effort can be seen in the new SLS AMG Black Series that incorporates many weight-saving techniques to shed some 154 pounds from the SLS AMG GT (above), which itself is lighter than the standard SLS AMG.
Furthermore, Moers remarks that his company is happy to leave the hypercar segment to companies like Ferrari and McLaren. He admits that, "Ferrari in the hyper-car segment is still a different brand than AMG. We have to be honest..." So rather than taking the SLS further upmarket to do battle with bulls and stallions, Moers hinted that the next-generation SLS may be joined by another performance model that fits neatly between itself and the C63 AMG.
