1981 Mercedes-benz 300td Touring - Excellent Condition, Very Clean Car on 2040-cars
Downey, California, United States
Selling a 1981 Mercedes-Benz 300TD in fantastic mechanical and cosmetic condition. Starts instantly, runs and drives beautifully. Transmission doesn't shift harshly like on so many other diesel Mercedes of this era, instead it's very smooth. Turbo spools nicely and makes very decent power. Options like Cruise Control and Power Door locks work perfectly. Seats show almost no signs of wear at all, and are soft and supportive, not hardened or faded AT ALL, no sagging springs either. The floor carpet was removed and replaced with rubber mats for durability. Trunk area carpet is still intact and in very good condition. I have the spare tire cover (not pictured) Has one oil stain, that would probably come out with some scrubbing. Blaupunkt Portland stereo installed and working.
Exterior is in very very clean and tidy condition for an original car of this age. Has one small dent above the tail light, and some scratches here and there, but nothing major, and no structural rust AT ALL. Not even the jack points are rusty. Always a California car, spent it's life in Montecito. Rear hydraulic self-leveling suspension works fine, doesn't sag or bounce. Original Hirschmann antenna still works but seems to need a new mast. Still wears it's blue and yellow original CA plates, and Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills license plate frame. Brakes and tires still have a good amount of life left in them. Great reliable car, would not hesitate to drive it cross country. The only issues it has, are that the driver's side window is stuck closed, and the A/C system needs to be recharged (verified, has an R134a retrofit notice sticker). No other issues. Clean title. I do have service records for the car, it has had thousands worth of work done in the last 10 years or so. Please don't hesitate to call me with any questions you might have prior to bidding.

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class interior caught in spy shots
Tue, 29 Jan 2013With the redesigned 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class getting closer to production, the camera-wielding crew over at Autospies somehow managed to get inside of the car to snap some detailed spy shots. As the prototypes continue to shed camouflage, it would appear that Mercedes-Benz is getting closer to unveiling the car, and with the Geneva and New York auto shows coming up, it could be sooner rather than later.
From what we can see of this car's interior, the overall look of the S-Class' cabin isn't a ground-breaking departure from the current car, but it has been completely redesigned with more advanced technology. The styling is now even more upscale with larger swaths of wood, more shapely door panels (without the built-in armrest cubbies) and the concept-like two-spoke steering wheel. The highlight of this car though is probably the two massive digital screens with one being used for driver information and the other used for navigation, audio and infotainment systems. One other detail we noticed about this car is that it was equipped with the new 360-degree camera that debuted on the new GL-Class and will also be used on the 2014 E-Class. We also know that the next-gen S-Class will be getting the new cloud-based MBrace2 infotainment system.
As for the exterior design, it looks like the next S-Class will carry a similar profile as the current car, but we can see through the camouflage that the new styling will fit in better with current Mercedes-Benz products. Up front, the grille is much larger is flanked by aggressive LED-trimmed headlights, while the rear view of the car shows us the LED brake light now at the top of the rear window, a more pointed trunk opening and a more squared-off rear fascia with exhaust outlets pushed to the corners.
UK workers strand car on island of asphalt to keep working
Wed, 06 Feb 2013Generally speaking, when you illegally park your car, you're likely to get ticketed and towed, but there is probably at least one motorist in Scotland who wishes that was the case. After workers had blocked off a portion of the parking lot for the Edinburgh Waverley railway station, the driver of this Mercedes-Benz S-Class reportedly moved some of the barriers to park in one of the empty spots.
Rather than having the vehicle towed, the work crew simply tore up the asphalt around the leaving just the one parking spot intact, and as you can see in the image above (posted to the Twitter account of Harold Norstad), the crew even built a small asphalt ramp so the car could get off its blacktop pedestal. Since this happened last week, there's no word as to whether the car was eventually moved or towed for the resurfacing work to continue.
Let this be a warning...
Maybach officially discontinues all models for 2013
Tue, 14 Aug 2012The word "Maybach" has joined the long list of synonyms for the word "kaput." Mercedes-Benz released the price list for the 2013 models of its super-luxury sedans, with the price column simply stating "Discontinued" for each one of them.
The 2012 models, should there be any left for 11th-hour buyers, maintain the increased MSRPs that Daimler slapped on them late last year after it was known the brand would be terminated next year. But you might still be able to wrangle that $100,000 rebate if you ask nicely, or in Russian, or have Rick Ross ask for you.
It shouldn't be too long before we see the ultimate version of the next generation S-Class, the S600 Pullman, that will replace Maybach. Intriguingly, it's said the Pullman will be offered with every S-Class engine, even the four-cylinder diesel.
