1990 Mercedes Benz 300se Flagship 4dr Sedan on 2040-cars
Centerville, Indiana, United States
|
continued from above......the car was always garaged and to add to that, the previous owner always covered the entire dash and seats with white cotton towels to prevent any type of damage or dryout caused by sunlight! We drove through Northern Cali, to the Redwoods and the Pacific Ocean Hwy because we knew we might not have such an opportunity again, then a total of 2900 effortless miles back home, without a flaw of any sort..The car was purchased new in Denver by an elderly gentleman that loved Benz's. He traded in 88 300SE in for this car, and gave $26300 difference(sticker 54322.) He then let his daughter drive it back and forth to college. At graduation, she sold the car to the gentleman that I purchased it from and it came with a ton of service records that showed all the servicing was performed by the Benz dealer. My daughter took it to Jacksonville Fl with her when she was transferred there with the US NAVY, and drove it back and forth from Florida three or four times, with no issues! Bottom line is this is one hell of a car, even still today! The ONLY reason Im selling this car, is the fact I had to take another job that doesn't pay very well, and I have 7 vehicles that the tag/insurance renewals are due in Feb and I cant drive them all, or afford to keep them all! This is BY FAR the best of the litter. I would go anywhere, anytime in this Flagship of its time. The only thing Ive done to this car, is perform regular maintenance , put a new set of tires on it, about 15000 miles ago, and a battery. It does have a small trans fluid drip that appears after its been sitting, minor issue for a car of this age and mileage. Usual rules apply, bid to buy not to jerk around. $250 deposit is required within 48 hours, via paypal, and only $250 please due to their charges! Balance due at pickup in Indiana, in cash only!. You will need to do nothing to drive this car home, wherever home is. If you need it shipped, its up to to make your own arrangements with the carrier of your choice, and must show the transport fees paid in full, prior to letting the car leave my property. Also, I will mandate from the carrier, a checklist of the cars condition at departure and the buyer can compare to it on delivery so that any damage etc, is the responsibility of the shipper. You are welcome, at your expense of course, to have an independent survey of the vehicle buy a local mechanic at MY location, in fact we have 3 very qualified German car mechanics here locally. All questions and inspections need to be completed prior to 24 hours of auction end. Pickup arrangements must be made within 72 hours after auction end. Questions? Call Ray @ 765-580-0789 as Im sure I probably forgot something or a detail of somekind! Thanks in advance, and Good Luck!!

Mercedes-Benz releases US-spec 2014 Sprinter details
Mon, 06 May 2013Last 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.
Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.
Race Recap: 2013 Japanese Grand Prix flips several scripts [spoilers]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Japan's Suzuka circuit is a great track that all the drivers love, but it doesn't usually provide the most thrilling, head-to-head racing. Where it does excel, however, is with surprises and "What just happened there?!" moments, and this year it was no different.
It started with Mark Webber in his Infiniti Red Bull Racing out-qualifying his teammate Sebastian Vettel for the first time this year. They were followed closely by Lewis Hamilton in the first Mercedes-AMG Petronas, the still-solid Romain Grosjean again outdoing teammate Kimi Räikkönen, Felipe Massa racing for another seat in Formula One and putting his Ferrari in fifth, then Nico Rosberg in the second Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and Räikkönen continuing to do himself no favors by qualifying tenth.
For the second year in a row, the lights going out was the cue to start the first corner action...
