For Sale No Reserve

This car Runs but does not Drive.  It is in what they call limp mode.  I am going to do my best at  giving a little history on the vehicle. My husband bought this car for me a little over a year ago. The car ran and drove beautifully.  Everything worked properly with no issues.   In July of 2013 the car was in my place of business parking lot parked when someone backed into the drivers side front door. Fortunately the young lady  whose son backed into the car brought it to my attention and shared her insurance information to have the car repaired. She was insured with Geico insurance and I selected a Geico partnered collision center to have the car repaired.  My husband personally took the vehicle to the collision center to be repaired. It took roughly one week before we were contacted that the vehicle was ready to be picked up.  My husband went to pick the car. Upon leaving the facility the car would not change out of 1st gear. It would only drive about 30 miles per hour.  My husband turned the vehicle around and took it back to the collision facility. He discussed the matter with the Geico and they informed us that they would look into the matter. Geico also informed us that upon diagnostic of the vehicle, if the problem was not related to the accident they would not cover it. We were not happy about this. My husband drove the vehicle up to the facility and expected to be able to leave the collision center driving the car.  Geico offered to have the car taken to a facility and diagnosed. We had the vehicle checked out and it was discovered that water had messed up the computers on the car.  The water had gotten to the computers because the when the windshield was removed a piece that was there to deflect the water was not properly replaced. Because it was not replaced properly water filled up in the area were the computers to the car was located. This malfunctioned the car and caused it to go into limp mode. We had for a few months been back and forth with Geico but they would not repair the car. It was terribly disappointing because for the whole time of going back and forth with them they paid over $2700 for our rental car. The Car could have been repaired for under $1500. We finally were tired of going back and forth with Geico and gave in.  My husband decided to just sell the car. Even though he felt like Geico should have covered repairing the vehicle because of neglect, he do not like the idea that water on the computer caused a vehicle to stop being able to be driven. I have included in this listing pictures of the car, Geico repair information, Geico Warranty, Car rental payment by Geico and diagnostic information from Repair Shop.  This will be included with the sell of the car and can be used to reference what the car needs. I hope I am clear in this information but if there are any questions please feel free to contact me.

Description

The Vehicle is Black with Gray leather interior.  The Exterior is in good condition with a few scratches, blemishes, dings and over spray from the collision center. I did complain to Geico about this and they told me to bring it back after I had it repaired, it was under  warranty with them. I just dropped the idea all together thinking they would do something purposely to mess the vehicle up again. I have included in the pictures close ups of cosmetic issues around the vehicle. The Interior is Gray leather. All the interior but the drivers seat is in good condition. The front seat was like this when my husband purchased it. The car is equipped with keyless entry, Navigation system ( needs Cd that is recorded with regions in US to work properly), Hidden Cassette Player, Cd Changer, Premium sound system, Power windows all working properly, power sunroof which is working properly, Telescopic wheel, Michelin tires all in good condition, Power door locks, power seats, Power brakes, Message center, dual climate control, knock down rear head rest, Rear defrogger, Intermittent wipers, console storage, wood grain, Alloy Wheels,  and black out tail lights. Hope I named everything but if any questions please feel free to contact me. I have included quite a few pictures to give you a good idea of the cosmetics of the car. Remember, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

State Taxes

Please note that if the vehicle is purchased by a  bidder who lives in Georgia I will have to add the Title Ad Valorem Tax to the final winning bid that  will be paid to the state. If the Winning bidder is from out of State, you will be responsible for paying your taxes as necessary for the state that you are in.  

Payment

A Deposit of $500 must be paid within 24 hours. The remaining balance must be paid for within 3 days. I prefer payment through paypal but will accept the balance cash in person. However if paying balance cash in person it must be done within 3 days.

Storage

I don't mind keeping the car until arrangements can be made to pick it up or have it transported.  However, Time is of the essence and I will not be responsible if left beyond an unreasonably period of time I think 2 weeks if within reason if you need more time, please contact me and we will work it out.

Buyer Please note This Car is Sold AS IS and No Warranty.  


Thanks and Good Luck Bidding

Mercedes mulling Renault-based entry-level X-Class?

Sun, 17 Mar 2013

Somewhere in between the Smart brand and the all-new A-Class (pictured above), Daimler is said to be readying a smaller entry-level product for the Mercedes-Benz brand to compete with models like the Audi A1. According to AutoBild, Mercedes-Benz will get a new hatchback based on a platform from its recent partnership with Renault-Nissan, and it could be called the X-Class.
Expected to debut by 2018, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class could be offered in sedan, hatchback and crossover variants, and it would likely have a starting price below the $20,000-euro mark. Power would come from either a 1.0-liter inline three-cylinder engine or a 1.5-liter inline-four, and the car would likely be built in a low-cost nation in order to make the financials work. Wearing the Mercedes-Benz name, the X-Class would have to exhibit more distinguishable luxury and styling to set itself apart from the models that helped provide its underpinnings.

Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.

Race Recap: Singapore Grand Prix is about a safety car and submission

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

The Singapore Formula One Grand Prix is the Monaco GP of the Orient - a weekend known more for its glamour and time-slot than on-track action, with a temporary circuit that punishes every mistake, usually terminally.
Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas got the best of Free Practice 1, opening the curtain on a possible resurgence of Silver Arrows performance. By the time qualifying was done, though, it was his teammate Nico Rosberg who lined up second on the grid, followed by Romain Grosjean with a beautiful performance in the Lotus, Mark Webber in the Infiniti Red Bull, and Hamilton all the way back in fifth. Behind them were Felipe Massa outqualifying Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button getting the McLaren into eighth, Daniel Ricciardo with another good Q3 effort to get into ninth, and the shocker of Esteban Gutiérrez getting his Sauber into the top ten for the first time this year.
At the front of the pack was Sebastian Vettel. Again. But he was only ahead of Rosberg by a single tenth of a second...
