This is a beautiful and rare, 2 door 1978 Mercedes 300D in very nice condition. I rarely see 2 doors, and hardly ever in the diesel. It has very low documented miles.

There is NO RESERVE, auction ends saturday night
5 cylinder , non turbo diesel 300D with auto transmission runs, shifts and drives as it should Car has 121,000 miles, has been garage stored and driven very little in the last 10 years.

No cracks in dash Nice chrome, bumpers and outside trim Tight steering and suspension as expected from a low mileage car New battery, synthetic engine oil used. Current Califonia registration, clean title on hand, have original papers and books $200 deposit by paypal, balance in cash or cashier check. Car is in San Diego, I would not be afraid of across country drive with this car. Will pick you up at the airport. I can also assist in vehicle shipping, can also get shipping bids for you on Uship and ship for you. Expect shipping to be $300 to $1400? depending on distance from the West coast. You are responsible for shipping costs, I will merely help you. Small things that could use attention There is a small hole in the headliner fabric There is some wear in the carpet by the driver brake pedal The top of the rear seat has changed color from the sun shining through the rear window. You can order a reproduction, matching original rear seat cover and have it installed if you like. The low fuel warning light stays on all the time even though the fuel tank is full Sometimes it takes 2 trys to start it when cold, would likely benefit from a service or perhaps daily driving. This car was only driven 2000 miles a year ! |

Mercedes working on new inline-six engines
Mon, 11 Nov 2013Mercedes-Benz will make a return to the inline-six-cylinder engine game, according to a report from the UK's AutoCar. It's not clear what's prompting the phasing out of the current array of V6s.
We'll see the first inline-six from Mercedes in next-generation E-Class, set to debut in 2016. Following that, it'll arrive as part of a mid-cycle refresh for the C-Class in 2017. What's particularly special about the new inline-six is its modular nature, which will allow Mercedes to eventually spinoff three- and four-cylinder options, with the three-pot arriving alongside the new inline-six.
In other news, AutoCar uncovered some details on the next C-Class AMG, which will ditch its excellent 6.2-liter, AMG V8 in favor of a 4.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V8, although we've already told you about that. What we didn't know at the time, though, was that the 4.0-liter would be paired first with a new, seven-speed AMG Speedshift transmission and offer all-wheel drive. AC also reports that a nine-speed Speedshift is in the works.
Clark Gable's 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing doesn't sell, then does sell for $1.85 million [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013How much extra value does previous celebrity ownership add to of a car? Really, there's no way to know until the car in question hits the auction block and bidders start raising their hands. In the case of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing you see above, the celebrity owner is none other than Clark Gable, who purchased it new. After Gable's death in 1960, the car changed hands a few times before settling with Charles Wood in 1975.
A high-dollar restoration was performed in 1989, and period accessories added by Gable himself were kept in place, including the Rudge knock-off wheels and Nardi steering wheel. Any Mercedes-Benz 300SL is worth a big chunk of money. In the case of Clark Gable's old Gullwing, the bidding stalled at $1.9 million here at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. As one of the 5000-series cars, this 300SL carried a reserve, and a bit of after-the-fact dealmaking saw the car change hands for $1.85 million.

The Mansory Speranza proves that money can buy taste and good sense...
Tue, 05 Mar 2013...Just kidding.
No one in their right mind has ever accused German tuners Mansory of being subtle. So, when our Geneva team wandered across the Mansory Speranza - A Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen that has been denuded of its roof and spackled inside with quilted leather and red carbon fiber - they didn't ask a lot of existential questions. Why does the Speranza exist? Because Germans are weird sometimes, that's why.
Forget for a moment that you'll have to pay Mansory hundreds of thousands of euros (we're guessing, no pricing information has been revealed) for the privilege of converting your G-Class into something that looks like a Suzuki Samurai, and prepare to be impressed by the details. The tuning house has increased the output of the Mercedes V8 to a healthy 700 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque. The wheels are 24-inches, and wear almost unbelievable 305-section ultra-high performance Vresdestein tires. Carbon fiber can be found nearly everywhere one looks, including making up the housing for the spare tire. Oh, and there are leather pillows for the backseats... no word on whether they're standard or optional, but we're looking in to it.
