This car is a real gem with only 66,535 miles. Well maintained and cared for with real leather interior. Seats and interior are in mint condition, no cracking or tears on the leather. (crack free wood grain interior trim.)  The car has no visible rust or any known body repairs. No accidents, nor odometer tampering, carfax is available or do your own car history reporting check. All the accessories are in working order including the original Becker radio. The air conditioner blows ice cold.  The a/c was an overhaul and has a new compressor.  Power antenna, vacuum locks ,power windows, and power sunroof work. Under the hood a new radiator, motor mounts,oil cover gasket, and water pump. Last week did an engine oil and transmission fluid change out. Owned by a non-smoker. No valve cover blowby or major leaks. It has the reliable 617 series 5 cylinder inline turbo diesel engine and 123 body style. If you want a heavy made steel car that runs great and has a reputation of running a long long time this is one of them that was produced.   Read about these cars for yourself on the net. I have two of them and my daily driver is a 84' 300D turbo that has over 255K miles and it still runs strong and A/C works. More pictures can be sent to you. This car does not have a computer that runs all the systems just basic diesel operation with vacuum controls. If one was neglected or beat up that's the only reason to steer clear of one, this one has had neither done to it. If you can do the basic fluid checks and even your own oil changes, you can own one of these classics. Previous seller was a 28 yr experienced mercedes mechanic and mechanical engineer, he took good care of this one.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept gets mobbed in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

If the reception it received at the Shanghai Motor Show is any judge of marketplace acceptance, Mercedes-Benz has a hit on its hands in the form of the GLA Concept. And we can understand why - we're quickly becoming fans of Mercedes' recent styling language, as defined by new models like the CLA and this GLA Concept.
The big news on the exterior front are the headlamp clusters, which have frickin' laser beams attached to their foreheads embedded inside that are capable of projecting videos and images on a screen. Plus, a pair of video cameras are mounted on the roof that can be used to capture driving excitement or removed and taken with you. How cool is that? We just hope they have a substantial locking mechanism to prevent would-be thievery...
If the exterior is mostly ready for production, with a few of the more outlandish elements moved to the trash bin - like, for instance, laser-beam headlamps and removable action cams - the interior is a true custom job that screams concept loud and clear. There are all kinds of jewel-like finishes inside, along with transparent surfaces showing what looks like metal latticework underneath and some awfully thick looking leather with massive exterior stitching done by hand similar to what you'd find on a baseball glove.

Mercedes Makes A Mighty Little Sedan
We got overexcited when the W203 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan came out in 2001, calling it the "Baby Benz" when it really wasn't. We knew that, too, but our enthusiasm for a model more like the old 190 of the '80s was so strong that we were willing to stretch the first-gen C-Class to fit that mold. Today, the C-Class has done what all German premium cars do: grown in size. In this case, grown to satisfy the market intentions of the previous E-Class.
There was the tall A-Class sold from 1998 through 2010, but we never considered that a serious small Benz in the proper spirit, nor was it ever offered in the US. Regardless, we've been craving a smaller, premium, sexy sedan all the while.

Mercedes-Benz releases US-spec 2014 Sprinter details

Mon, 06 May 2013

Last week, Mercedes-Benz released the details for the updated 2013 Sprinter intended for global markets, but this week it has announced what changes are being made to the US-spec version of the van for the 2014 model year, including the Freightliner model. As expected, most of the changes made to the European model will be present on the 2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter when it goes on sale in the US, which is expected to be this fall.
The biggest difference between the Sprinter announced last week and the one headed to our shores is what is found under the hood. While European Sprinters will come with diesel engines and offer the availability of a supercharged four-cylinder gasoline or CNG engine, US Sprinters will still offer the 3.0-liter V6 BlueTEC diesel. This year's Sprinter now comes standard with a new base engine, the 2.1-liter four-cylinder BlueTEC diesel. This smaller engine will produce 161 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque, and will be paired to a seven-speed automatic transmission; the optional 3.0 V6 puts out 188 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, and will be mated to a six-speed auto.
Fuel economy for the new Sprinter has not been announced, but Mercedes-Benz has made numerous changes with the goal of improving efficiency. To this end you'll find a new, low-friction rear axle and the optimization for the generator, fuel pump and power steering pump.
