Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"The power steering box has a slight leak that is not a problem if you top it off with fluid now and then, but could use repair. The only other mechanical issue is the idle control valve which is either going bad or needs adjustment- while warming up the car makes a rhythmic zooming, once warm it runs smoothly. AC does not work but all blowers and heat work (all heat levers are original and perfect). The exterior has some rust spots (all pictured) but the frame is strong and rust free. Car was repainted in past, but the "tobacco brown" is the original color. If looking to restore it will probably need to be repainted. There is some odd spotting on the car that shows in bright sunlight- I believe it is from a bad coat of wax and may scrub off with the right product."

This is a beautiful 1972 Mercedes-Benz 280se 4.5L.  This is a spectacular car to drive and always turns heads as you go down the road. 


It has a powerful 8 cylinder engine with a new fuel pump and trigger points. The power steering box has a slight leak that is not a problem if you top it off with fluid now and then, but could use repair. The only other mechanical issue is the idle control valve which is either going bad or needs adjustment- while warming up the car makes a rhythmic zooming, once warm it runs smoothly. 
The interior is the finest I have ever seen- The dash is crack free and the wood has beautiful original high gloss. Contrasting the deep hues of the mahogany dash is a beautiful ivory white steering wheel. Original Becker Curona works well. The Wood window surround at drivers seat has been refinished, the 3 other windows have not been redone but would refinish well. The drivers seat shows normal wear, but all other seats and rugs look untouched. Whoever had this car originally must have always driven it alone because the back seats literally feel like they have never been sat in.  AC does not work but all blowers and heat work (all heat levers are original and perfect). It has its original unopened first aid kit (all writing in German)!
The exterior has some rust spots (all pictured) but the frame is strong and rust free. I had it at a mechanic recently to get the trigger points replace and they told me it is a strong car. If looking to completely restore it, it will probably need to be repainted. There is rust on the body in a few places, the worst located on the right fender and a rust hole in the trunk tire storage well. The car shows well as it is, but after a trip to the body shop to repair the exterior, this car will belong on Pebble Beach. You won't find another interior like this for this price. I bought the Benz a year ago with hopes of doing the cosmetic work myself but I am going to college next year and dont have the time or money to take care of the car. The inspection sticker expired a month ago, so it is due for inspection. Just know that I am not a mechanic and have told you everything I know, I give no guarantees on the car and it is being sold "as is". If you buy the car I will want a $500 deposit via paypal and the rest in cash when you come to pick it up.  Email me with any questions! Don't miss out on this great deal!

2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineup shows its freshened face

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Mercedes-Benz showed us its redesigned 2014 E-Class more than a month ago, but the Detroit Auto Show finally gave us a chance to see the full family of mid-size luxury cars and wagons in the flesh. Dieter Zetsche introduced the cars, including sedan, coupe, convertible and station wagon, on stage showing the stylish new design direction.
The wagon and sedan versions (shown as the E400 Hybrid above) will go on sale this spring, while the coupe and cabriolet will hit showrooms over the summer. Check our new gallery of live shots for the entire 2014 E-Class lineup, as well as the previously released press release below.

Mercedes A45 AMG in downhill battle with slipstream skateboarder

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

We're told it takes "performance, control and expression" to pilot a longboard skateboard down a mountain road, and that those happen to be the same values embodied in the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. That's how the two came to be combined in a black-and-white short film called Silver Slipstream.
There's no talking, no engine note and no color, just some music, a 'boarder and a car on a long cruise down the Franschhoek Pass in the Western Cape of South Africa." Despite that, it's actually a pretty entertaining video of the latest Mercedes-Benz hot hatch married with extreme sports. You can watch how it all goes down in the video below.

Rare Isdera Imperator 108i flexes its considerable muscles

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

The Isdera Imperator 108i is a remarkably rare supercar from the late 80s and early 90s. Born of a Mercedes-Benz concept car, it's powered by a range of AMG-developed V8s, with five to six liters of displacement, depending on the engine. The example shown here, lapping the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit, features the most potent 6.0-liter V8 available. And rather than just being driven about on a perfectly clean racing line, it's freaking power sliding!
Yes, there's something eternally childlike about a wedge-shaped supercar from our formative years being flung about a Belgian racetrack. Adding to the appeal is the Imperator's stumpy, periscopic rear mirror, sticking out of the roof. Even after being out of production for 20 years, this is still a wild, wild car and we'd happily snap up the opportunity pilot one of the 36 Isderas that were built. Take a look below for the full video from Spa.
