I am offering my own personal M-B 380SE W126 for sale. I am retiring to my winter home and this car is redundant to my needs. I will also be selling a 1992 Cadillac Fleetwood with 60,000 miles shortly. I am a member of the MBCA in addition to numerous other car clubs. My phone number is 216-470-2146 and I welcome phone calls. This is one of the last of the 1st Series W126 platform cars. These were amongst the last of the over-engineered, run forever Mercedes-Benz cars.
I purchased this car from my late cousins estate. He was the original purchaser and used this car little. The original owner, Mr. Mandel was 99 years old when he died and was one of the wealthiest men in Cleveland. The actual mileage is 96,000. This works out to just over 3,500 miles per year. This car was never out of service and always maintained.
It was bought from the original Northern Ohio M-B dealer, Koepke Motors of Lakewood, OH. Bob Koepke original received his M-B franchise from Studebaker-Packard in the 1950's. All the original papers are included along with both the valet key and pocket key.
This car is in excellent running order. This particular example was fitted from new with the double row timing chain. I did do some major service though and while I loathe ads that state "fly in-drive home" this is one of those older cars. Since I have owned this car I have done the following;
Flush and refill the coolant system.
Retrofit the A/C with R134a refrigerant.
New front shocks, tie rods and ball joints.
New fuel filter, air filter, etc.
Brand new correct size Kumho tires.
The full power seats with memory beige leather seats are really nice. Still supple and soft. Very comfortable. No rips and the padding is factory correct. The interior wood trim is near perfect with the exception of the center console. This finish has some cracks but the veneer is perfect. The dash pad is original and not cracked in any way. 1985 was the last year of the large steering wheel.
The body has mostly original paint. It was repaired not from rust or accidents but this is a larger car and original owner was elderly when he bought the car. I am including 100 photos on photobucket at this address;
It carries the correct oil pressure, 2 bars when hot at idle and immediatly goes to 3 bars when above idle. The transmission shifts properly. All the lights work.
Please understand that this is a very nice safe W126 S-Class. It is not perfect as is was driven 96,000 miles in some 27 years. But with that caveat I believe this car is a good value, incredibly safe and is even fitted with Bosch ABS anti-lock brakes.
Please peruse the myriad of photos. Call me with any questions. My phone number is 216-470-2146. Thanks for looking and good luck.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.
Maybach could become Mercedes-Benz sub-brand
Wed, 22 Jun 2011When you're arriving in a twin-turbocharged, twelve-cylinder Maybach limo, there's no reason you should ever have to be late. Except, maybe, to make a fashionable entrance. But up at the corporate level, the entire Maybach brand is being slowed down as critical decisions about its future are being undertaken.
Last week, we reported that a decision on what path Maybach would take going forward would be due at the start of next month, but the latest reports indicate that the timeframe has been extended as further options are being considered.
The previous options under consideration were twofold: either relaunch the brand with production outsourced to Aston Martin - which suddenly finds itself with excess production capacity - or shut it down completely. And those are still two very real options. Word has it that Aston has put together four concept cars for the Daimler brass to consider, all based on the next-generation S-Class platform (and thankfully not the old one).
2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507 still lights our fire
Wed, 06 Mar 2013The current Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG may be in the autumn of its years, but it's still one of our very favorite sport sedans. Ever. Yes, its paddle-shift transmission may not always follow orders, but with stupendous levels of thrust from its charismatic naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8, ebullient rear-wheel-drive dynamics and that noise, we frankly don't care that it's getting on a bit.
As a sendoff of sorts for the current generation, Mercedes-Benz has just introduced a new Edition 507 model at the Geneva Motor Show, with 507 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque - an increase of 56 horses over the standard car. Mercedes credits the substitution of low-mass internals from the SLS AMG gullwing for the power bump, a tactic shared with the AMG Development Package upgrade that has been subsumed by this Edition 507. 0-60 is quoted at 4.1 seconds and top speed at 174 mph.
The Edition 507 borrows its aluminum hood from the C63 AMG Black Series Coupe, along with spidery new 19-inch wheels in either titanium gray finish or matte black with shiny rim flanges. As seen on our gallery car above, a sports striping package is also featured, as are glossy black grille, daytime running lamps, spoiler and mirror caps.
