I have a lovely 1982 MERCEDES-BENZ 300 CD TURBO DIESEL to sell (VEGGIE READY!). Originally purchased as my daily driver, it quickly just became our car to just take on little trips around town. It's a great car and fun to drive, but we have another car and don't need the extra insurance costs. Brown exterior, tan leatherette interior. LOW miles (150,000), no body damage, NO accidents. Very clean car. This is the Mercedes that everyone wants. The engine lasts forever!! Your chance to own a lovely little classic. These cars have gone for over $20,000 at auction... We have put close to $5000 in the car updating various things. She is almost perfect.
Here is a link to information about this model of car (this is NOT info on my car up for sale...)

Clean title and regularly maintained by our German Auto specialist, this car is close to perfect. The very desirable 2-door coupe style is hard to find, especially in such nice condition. We have updated almost everything, internally, over the last few years. The engine runs perfectly and only has 150,000 miles. The engine in this car is not the original, it is new to the car. But it has 10,000 less than odometer reads. We have replaced almost everything else inside of the car (with the exception of the rear automatic windows). The cd player/radio/bluetooth audio/speakers are new but we still have the original one if you want that too.
Power windows and sunroof still work, but the back windows are very slow and we don't use them. Our mechanic said that these back windows are usually an issue on most of these cars, but we never really needed to use them so we never noticed. Loved having the sun/moonroof though, especially on warm CA nights. A/C works, but it does not blow super cold like air conditioners in modern cars.
I would say the only 'negatives' this car has are cosmetic issues, mainly to the interior. Car is in VERY nice condition, but the leather seats have cracked over the years in places due to sun damage (see photos). And it could definitely benefit from a good interior cleaning. There are also a couple of very tiny paint chips (no rust) on the exterior of the car (see photos). VERY small chips but you do notice that the car appears to have originally been a light blue color. We have all of the receipts for work we had done by German Prestige Auto and can put you in contact with our mechanic who can tell you more about the work done.
I have attached as many photos as I was allowed but have some others if interested. Please email and I will respond as soon as I can.

Russia gives its Olympic medalists new Mercedes
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Russian medalists at the recently concluded Sochi Winter Olympics are being rewarded quite handsomely for their service to the Motherland. In addition to the $120,000 being handed out for each gold medal, the $76,000 being awarded for slivers and $52,000 given to bronze winners, now word has come out that each of Russia's medalists will be gifted a new Mercedes-Benz.
As with the prize amounts, the type of Mercedes offered was based on what sort of medal was won. Gold medalists got a new GL-Class, silver medalists were given an ML and bronze medalists were treated to a GLK. As prices for Mercedes are higher in Russia, the cheapest model, the GLK, was the equivalent of $59,500, according to The Moscow Times. The cars were handed out by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, pictured above with figure skating medalist Julia Lipnitskaia.
"I was a bit shocked at the car I was given," Anton Shipulin, a member of the gold-medal biathlon relay team, told RIA-Novosti. "Of course I knew what kind of model it would be, but I didn't totally believe it." For athletes not old enough to drive, like 15-year-old Lipnitskaia, their Mercedes will come complete with a driver.
Mercedes-AMG GT attacks Circuit of the Americas
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Mercedes-Benz is having a banner year with its Formula One team. Through 2014, the constructor has 454 championship points; ahead of its nearest competitor (Red Bull-Renault) by a margin of 182 tally marks. We're sure they can almost taste the champagne.
It's fitting then, and a little big cocky in a good way, that Mercedes has released a video of its newest sports car at an F1 venue. In this case, the car is the lovely Mercedes-AMG GT S, and the racetrack is Austin's Circuit of the Americas.
Having seen the official photo set and scratched the surface of the technical specifications earlier this week, we're excited to finally hear the thing run. As you might guess, the deployment of 503 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque from the twin-turbo V8 is a motivating experience. Crank up your volume, and hit that play button. (Oh, and Mercedes shot the thing in 4K, too, so those of you with expensive televisions/monitors should take heed to the settings.)
Maybach and Aston Martin alliance talks fall apart
Tue, 27 Sep 2011If you have, like us, been salivating at the notion of a new generation of Maybach and Lagonda ultra-luxury crafts built by Aston Martin, we've got some bad news: According to reports emanating from Germany, talks between AML and Daimler have broken down.
The proposal under negotiation would have seen Daimler outsourcing production of the next family of Maybach models to Aston Martin, which in return would benefit from Mercedes-Benz platforms and engines - not only for its svelte GTs, but also for its own future Lagonda line of limousines and luxury SUVs. That, and a boatload of money - or at least that's what AML was reportedly seeking, an issue that served as the stumbling block over which the deal reportedly collapsed.
That's not to say the two parties couldn't still reach some sort of a compromise, but short of that, Daimler may opt to either shut down Maybach altogether, find another partner, or take another stab at building new models internally.
