1995 mercedes s420.... 146k...runs and drives but needs tlc..new paint,cd head unit and double pain windows....bought as a non running project 6 months ago no time to work on it. I did put in a fuel pump and new fuel filter,drivers rear axle shaft and got it running and maybe put 50 miles on it with the throttle problem but wasnt comfortable driving it like that but just aired it out....$1000 out the door for repair or parts car sold 'AS IS'.... Erratic idle and throttle response.... Clean new paint job...cd unit ,double pane tinted windows, bought as fixer upper 6 months ago never put any real time into it my loss is your gain and it will probably sit in my driveway another 6 months as my sons e320 needs a head gasket and the wifes ml320 is starting to need a little attention and you guys know how that is!!!..
This is not the car you buy if you need to get in and drive now....a mechanic or someone who knows a mechanic is best suited for purchasing these Benz w140 body cars to properly diagnose the problem with a scanner that reads obd1 pre 96 vehicles so your not throwing in any unnecessary parts... Major repairs may need electronic throttle or air mass sensor or idle control module or abs/asr module sensor due to speedo cutting out..I was told if the computer thinks the wheels are slipping it wheel limit the power output to the vehicle. Minor issues are various bulbs , trunk lock,sunroof goes back half way due to something being stuck in track and some engine plastic cover parts are missing,horn inop oil level sensor,need driver door check.This cars book value is worth a lot more together or parted out than what im asking.It also is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction if it sells elsewhere.
I have a clean tmu title (true mileage unknown) due to speedo cutting out which was stamped on the title the guy gave me that was in his name that I USED TO REGISTER AND INSURE IT IN MY NAME SO I KNOW ITS CLEAN and as a bonus I will throw in a set of 18 inch tsw wheels that came with my 2003 s500 4matic that should fit this s420 same lug bolt pattern they just need to be cleaned up due to oxidation showing as I never used them I preferred using the 18 inch amg"s.
I STRONGLY recommend you come with a trailer to
transport the vehicle home ........If you should choose to attempt to drive it I AM not guaranteeing you make it ANYWHERE! I have tried to describe the vehicle to the best of my ability and on a 18 year old car there may be a thing or two I missed but my 100%feedback should assure you I'm honest!..plz call Mark 203-449-6939

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.
SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA gets official ahead of Shanghai
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Mercedes-Benz has something special planned for the Shanghai Motor Show - a new CUV concept that we first saw when it leaked on the internet yesterday. The GLA Concept compact crossover will hit the show stand with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive, and likely previews a new production model that we've already spotted testing.
That's not news, but the laser-based headlamps with video-projecting capability certainly are. Mercedes-Benz says the array can project any image or video onto a screen, which is handy since there are a pair of HD cameras mounted to the roof rack. The cameras can be removed and taken with you on all sorts of adventures. The lamps also feature a visible cooling system comprised of a series of fans, and the system helps give the headlights their "sparkle" effect.
Step indoors and the GLA offers up the interior of a high-quality crossover, complete with contrasting leather and plenty of aluminum. The automaker says the cabin was inspired by saddle craftsmanship with "more than 65 feet of hand-stitched seams to hold the raw edges of the leather together."
