For sale is a 1981 Mercedes Benz 300D. Finished in Astral Silver Metallic which was the color first introduced on the Mercedes 300sl Gullwing. Interior color is a Twin Pacific Blue Mercedes Benz textile. There have been many recent improvements to this classic Mercedes. The engine and many other systems were restored at 200,000 miles and i have recently spent $3,000.00 on parts and maintenance at the Mercedes dealership in anticipation for the sale. This car was also celebrity owned and for its entire life has been kept in a temperature controlled garage. The Mercedes classic center would be jealous of this car, and i have received many compliments from my local Mercedes Benz club members on the condition! Anyone who knows Mercedes diesels knows this is the real deal. The W123 is refered to by most as the best Mercedes EVER!!! If you are looking for a stunning 1980's Mercedes then look no futher! This is the real McCoy and has many more decades of life left in it.
As you can see by the pictures this car has been babied its entire life. This car was consistently stored for all winter months and always had a fresh coat of wax. For the full list of refurbishments please call me but here are a few. Professional detailing, new Bosch car battery, new hood insulation pad, all correct maintenance services for the mileage including oil change, valve adjustment, motor mounts, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, injection pump cleaning service, fuel treatment, and all bulbs were checked and replaced. The last owner was so OCD and meticulous about maintenance that he actually had a pair of wrenches custom bent to mimic the ones from the dealership so he could do his own valve adjustments. I have an extra set of navy blue mats and some cup holders that i am also including. Comes with three distinct Mercedes keys and handy dandy bottle opener.
There are no rips in the seats or carpets and even though it is an older vehicle is more comfortable to ride in than many modern day cars. Engine starts right up in hot or cold weather, transmission shifts effortlessly. Check out my videos, just email me for the links!!! I do a walk around of the car and i get in start it and take it for a spin.
I have all my receipts(even more then were in the pictures) from the maintenance and tons of repair records and extra information on this W123. This Mercedes is in amazing condition for its age, but is not without minor blemishes. There is a minor dent in the back left quarter panel and some paint chipped off in two small places near the fuel door. Both spots are smaller then my pinky fingernail. Clean auto check/Carfax and title, and i will be happy to overnight the title to the new owner as soon as receipt of payment is received. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to give me a call 484-885-3168 or send me an email.
This car is sold as is where is with no warranties expressed or implied and i will require a signed bill of sale for insurance purposes before the car ships out. As far as shipping is concerned any expenses are the responsibility of the buyer but i may be able to give some direction on which shippers to use depending on your location. I will expect full payment within 72 hours of purchase by either cash in person, bank wire transfer or certified bank check. Pickup of vehicle should be within two weeks of purchase unless another arrangement is made. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time and charge a storage fee if pickup is delayed without permission of the seller. Again please don't hesitate to call or email!!!
Thanks,
Nate :)

Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
Mercedes Sprinter updated to take on Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster
Mon, 29 Apr 2013By the end of this year, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter will be the second-oldest nameplate in its segment here in the States, but with hot new competition waiting in the wings, Mercedes-Benz is giving its hauler a freshened look and more equipment to stave off rivals. The Sprinter was a pioneer in bringing Euro-style delivery vans to North America, and it's inspired others to transplant their Continental offerings, with the all-new Ford Transit and Ram Promaster models launching shortly. It will also continue to do battle with lower-cost traditional competitors like the Chevrolet Express and Ford E-Series.
The big Sprinter will thus get a new look to go with more safety features and available technology. While the information released here technically covers the Euro-spec 2013 Sprinter (which goes on sale in September), the US market is expected to get the new Sprinter for the 2014 model year with many of the same features. Some of this new technology includes a Crosswind Assist feature as standard equipment and the availability of Collision Prevention Assist and Blind Spot Assist as optional safety measures - Mercedes-Benz says that all three are firsts for any van in the world. Also added to the updated Sprinter is a new 1.8-liter supercharged gasoline (or CNG) engine producing 156 horsepower, which will complement the line of diesel engines that carry over and help make the Sprinter the first cargo van to meet the upcoming Euro VI emissions standards. Additionally, a lower ride height is said to improve fuel economy and should improve handling while aiding ingress and egress for both people and cargo.
In terms of styling, the Sprinter's new face also looks more like the current line of Mercedes-Benz passenger cars. This includes a more upright grille along with changes to the hood, headlights and bumper that lend it a closer kinship to models like the CLS-Class and the updated E-Class. The Sprinter will offer both halogen and HID headlights, while the latter will get LED running lamps and offer Highbeam Assist. The images shown here only reveal the exterior from front angles, but it looks like few, if any, changes have been made to the rear of the van. Interior upgrades include a thicker steering wheel, a new shift lever and the latest in audio, navigation and entertainment systems. Scroll down for the official press release for the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.
Mercedes considering GLA-based crossover coupe
Wed, 30 Apr 2014BMW opened a whole Pandora's Box when it introduced the X6 back in 2008. Sure it made little sense, sacrificing all that "utility" for a little more "sport," but it's been a solid success for BMW - especially considering the nominal expense it cost to develop the X6 on top of the X5 on which it's based. Little wonder that, while BMW has already followed up with a smaller version in the form of the X4, other automakers are starting to catch up. And that includes Mercedes-Benz.
The German automaker is preparing to launch a new MLC, based on the M-Class but with a sportier silhouette, and previewed it with the Concept Coupe SUV at the Beijing Motor Show. But that's just the start, according to the latest report from Automotive News Europe.
Mercedes is reportedly considering spinning off an entire line of crossovers more for use on the road than off it. Which may go without saying for most crossovers on the market, but considering the Geländwagen with which Mercedes got its start in SUVs, would mean an even further departure than it has undertaken already.
