I am the 3rd owner of this car and have lovingly maintained it for 4 1/2 years with close to no problems. I have replaced the ignition cylinder, the vacuum pump, the battery and the tires. Other than that all I have had to do is regular oil changes.
The PROS:
Sun roof and automatic windows work.
Runs very good, has a strong engine, with regular oil changes and maintenance.
A well maintained diesel engined 300 turbo Mercedes Benz can run up to 1,000,000 miles, it will run as long as you pour diesel and oil
NO electronic system, therefore no sensors to replace.
Straight body, all trims and emblem intact ,
New battery and tires less than a year old.
Very safe big car that gets great gas mileage.
The car starts quickly, even on colder days.
It runs smoothly, with plenty of power from the turbo.
The transmission shifts sure and true.
The ride is very smooth and solid.
It is a great candidate for a vegetable oil burning system conversion so you can run as you wish diesel, bio-diesel or vegetable oil
Diesel is 1/2 cost of gas and vegetable oil is 1/2 of diesel so great savings.
I have full coverage insurance and pay under $75 a month and the registration fees in CA are only $83 a year.
The registration is already renewed until next March.
This car was always in Southern California so no rusting
The CONS:
There are some minor cosmetic things like a couple small tears near the ceiling lights in the headliner and small paint chips missing near the wheel wells and the driver's seat is worn (but still very comfortable).
The heat works but the A/C does not. I am not sure if this is due to the condensor or if it just needs freon.
The speedometer and odometer do not work. They have not since I have had the car but I have never found this to be an issue.
An atheistically pristine model of this car which would normally go for $4,500. Since there are a couple of cosmetic issues I am pricing it to sell. Contact me with any questions.

Mercedes was set to sell version of Nissan Titan, now Infiniti might instead
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz Titan. Mercedes-Benz Frontier. Mercedes-Benz pickup truck. None of these things roll off the tongue particularly well. We'd like to think that's the reason Daimler opted to kill the idea of rebadged Titan and Frontier pickups from corporate ally Nissan. In reality, the execution before the Frankfurt Motor Show was due to more complicated issues.
Yes, Mercedes, byword for German luxury, style and quality, would have slapped a three-pointed star on a pair of Japanese pickup trucks that have failed to resonate with consumers in the world's largest truck market. That slapping of badges isn't much of an exaggeration, at least on the outside. According to the report from Road & Track, the truck's front clip would have been tweaked, but beyond that, the sheetmetal would have been unchanged. The interior would have received a more thorough going-over by the team at Mercedes, while the suspension and noise, vibration and harshness tuning would have also received significant attention.
The trucks would have ended up being sold through the light-commercial branch of Mercedes-Benz - the same folks that will happily sell you a Sprinter van - had the deal gone through. Issues arose, though, first with the engines. Mercedes wanted a wider range of powertrains to allow it to tune models for specific markets, while Nissan said it couldn't engineer the wide variety of engines that MB wanted to drop under the hood. For the smaller truck, meanwhile, MB was interested in a hybrid or plug-in variant, according to R&T, although this was also shot down by Nissan.
How could a lifted Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG be more awesome? Add an axle
Fri, 01 Mar 2013We are fully confident in saying that this will be the most amazing thing you see all day. First of all, it's a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen - in AMG spec, no less. And it's being shown off in high-definition video glory, blasting through the desert, jumping over sand dunes, and generally being awesome. But here's the kicker: It has six wheels. Three axles. And they're all driven. Holy $%!#.
Under the hood is AMG's usual 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, and total output is rated at 536 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. That's impressive and all, but do keep in mind that the G63 6x6 weighs in at 8,322 pounds or, you know, the weight of two E-Class sedans. Combine that with its 18 inches of ground clearance, 37-inch tires and five locking differentials and you've got a vehicle capable of, well, everything you've ever imagined or will ever imagine for the rest of your life.
But the goodness doesn't stop once you open the doors. Oh, no. This thing is fit for a king - or a sheik, more appropriately - with ultimately luxurious seating for four. The rear bench seat has been removed in favor of two bucket seats with a fixed console in the middle, and the rear seats have been moved back beyond the usual B pillar to allow for more legroom.
Aston Martin signs Letter of Intent for technical partnership with AMG
Thu, 25 Jul 2013A little over two months ago came reports that Daimler and Aston Martin were in talks, again, about "supply and technical-cooperation agreements." The next step has been taken with Aston Martin announcing that it has signed a Letter of Intent that looks "towards a technical partnership" with Mercedes-AMG GmbH, and the two companies aiming to have definitive agreements done by year's end.
While it will get to use certain electric and electronic components from AMG, the true golden egg for the maker of the Vanquish will be the ability to develop a new line of "bespoke V8 powertrains" that will be fitted to "a new generation of models." In return for opening up the larder, Daimler will get a non-voting stake of up to five percent of Aston Martin.
Nothing else is being said about the tie-up for the moment, but there's a press release below with a few more details.
