You are bidding on a 1985 European Mercedes Benz 280te with a very rare 5 speed. Car runs and drives great and blows COLD Air conditioning! Engine has a lot of power and is suspect of being rebuilt. There are some numbers on the back of the engine. 5 speed transmission is suspect of being rebuilt as well. Transmission is very tight and smooth. Clutch is brand new and everything else mechanically looks and drives in great condition. Body of this wagon is very clean and originally midnight blue ( dunkelblau). There are two rust holes in both rear 1/4 panels. Very small holes and can be fixed easily and spot painted. Interior is in good shape with cream beige leather seats but has signs of being 28 years old. This is a well optioned European Wagon; 5 speed transmission, roof rack delete, badge delete on hatch, power windows,air conditioning, lumbar seats, leather seats, and a tachometer.

Car runs and drives great and is a beautiful wagon. I had a reputable Northern California Mercedes mechanic go over the car with me when I bought it. After looking over the car and driving it. We suspect the car was well taken care of with a rebuilt/replaced engine and a rebuilt transmission. That being said, it is 28 years old and has never been restored. It was in a small fender bender in 1997 and now has a reconstructed title. It's been on the road in Oregon for the past 15-16 years since the accident with no problems. I bought the car and a month later decided to move to Hawaii. I am selling all my Mercedes stuff in the next 6 months and this is the first to go. You will get the reconstructed title from Oregon along with all paperwork I have. I will also give new owner a notarized bill of sale from me. If you are not ok with this, please do not bid. I can legally sell the car because it was signed off to me. I will now sign off for new owner.  California bidders, I will not smog this car. Carfax shows the car was smogged in Oregon five times in the last ten years and passed. I have the carfax report for anyone interested in seeing it. This car is being sold in as is condition described in words and pictures. Please view the car before auction ends. I have no problem showing the car to potential buyers. Failure to view the car before the auction ends is not the sellers responsibility. This is the buyers responsibility.  There are no refunds; you bid, you pay, you pick up or have a car transport company pick the vehicle up for you. I have no problem assisting in transporting but it's your financial responsibility. If you want to fly in and see the car, I will pick you up from the airport free of charge. If you have any questions about the car, now is the time to ask me all the questions you can think of. Please do not ask me ANY questions after the auction about the car unless it pertains to payment and pick up. It is frustrating as a seller to have to answer questions when you have 7 days of auction to ask me anything you want. Please have all approvals from your wife, spouse, daughter, dog or pastor before bidding. That excuse is no longer a valid one. I have a great feedback rating for a reason and I would like to keep it that way. If you want it, bid your heart away. If you don't want this car, there are other cool w123 cars out there for sale.  :)

I am open to selling the car world wide. Cost of shipping is still the buyers responsibility. Car is for sale locally and in other venues. I reserve the right to end the auction early. Remember the car is for sale when money is present. I would love to see it go to a good home! $500 deposit due within 24hrs of end of auction. Remainder due within 7 days from the end of auction. Payment should be cash in person or bank wire transfer before the car is picked up. Not the same day. Waiting at my bank for 5 hours waiting for the wire is not an option. Please, any questions feel free to email me and go from there. Thanks

Vin number wdb1230931f046171 is a grey market vin number not intended for the United States. This car at some point was brought into the country from another country.

Mercedes widens luxury sales gap on strong early CLA demand

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Mercedes-Benz CLA sales have been booming, with the Stuttgart-based manufacturer moving 2,300 of the sleek four-doors in its first week on sale. That is astonishing. Mercedes moved nearly twice as many CLAs (which start at $29,900) in one week than Jaguar, a brand that is on a very solid roll, sold in all of September. Ignoring the price differences between the Jag line and the CLA, that is still wildly impressive.
Mercedes has been pushing the CLA in television ads, using a shortened version of its Super Bowl spot, which starred William Dafoe, Usher and Kate Upton. "As the bargain entrance into the Mercedes portfolio, we weren't sure how luxury buyers would react," Kelly Blue Book auto analyst Alec Gutierrez told Bloomberg.
The CLA push was just part of MB's 6.7-percent increase in September sales, which were also helped along by a 17-percent jump in E-Class sales. That surge has allowed Mercedes to widen its 2013 sales lead over its rival, BMW, to 2,491 cars, according to Bloomberg. If CLA sales continue at this rate, we can only expect that margin to grow.

Mercedes-Benz CLA stars in sweeping short with supermodel Karlie Kloss

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

The Mercedes-Benz CLA earned itself a spot on our list of the top five unveils of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and for good reason. The German luxury compact is the first small car from the Silver Arrow that looks suitably premium inside and out. Nowness.com has turned out a new video of the CLA featuring super model Karlie Koss in the lead role. We aren't entirely sure what the premise is, but from what we can tell, it looks as if the CLA comes to life and proceeds to be a giant jerk.
After Koss stops to take a closer look at a white horse, the CLA gives the supermodel the old stop-and-go treatment before leaving her on the side of the road. Eventually, the sedan makes nice, but Koss has to ride shotgun instead of taking the controls herself. You can check out the video below to see for yourself.

X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.
