My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction. Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a gorgeous 2001 Mercedes Benz S430 with just 93k original miles. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am a huge Mercedes Benz fan. I personally feel that they are the best designed, best built and longest lasting automobiles on the road. My personal daily driver is an 01 S55 AMG. I would rate the exterior of this Merc to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. As you can see, this is a gorgeous S430. It is finished in a rare medium blue over light gray with dark tinted windows and 18" chrome wheels. The finish has a mile deep shine and looks as smooth as glass. As with any older car, please expect a few imperfections and blemishes commensurate with age and mileage. Save for a few stone chips on the nose, there really isn't anything to complain about on the exterior. The body lines are nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk all open and close easily. Sometimes the drivers door soft close doesn't work...but the soft close works on the other doors and trunk. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The body looks to be completely rust free, which is very unusual as these W220's begin to age. The 18" chrome alloys really make the car. They show well and are wrapped in a nice set of Goodyear Eagle RS-A's with average tread all around. Please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully to see how nice this Mercedes looks. I would rate the interior of this Mercedes S430 to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The light gray interior contrasts nicely against the medium blue exterior. The door panels are clean and tight. The carpets show well throughout the interior. The dash and headliner are clean, too. The light wood accents are unusual to find (most W220's have the darker wood) and really make the interior look great. The leather seats show well and are comfortable. Both front seats are power operated. The power windows, mirrors, sunroof, seats and central locks all work properly. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. It offers independent setting for the driver and passenger. The heater works well and the air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR, too. This S430 also has the full rear shades option. All three shades show well, are fully intact and raise and lower easily. The trunk is spacious and clean. Pride in ownership shows throughout this Mercedes-Benz. Mechanically, this S430 appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 4.3L V8 starts easily and runs smoothly. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine does not smoke. Her road manners are excellent. The AirMatic suspension works properly and rides just like a W220 should ride. The steering and brakes feel good, too. The only warnings on are for the mirror turn signals being out. This is common, my S55 does this as well. The engine keeps perfect temperature and feels strong. You can hear a little rattle in the exhaust, which is probably a loose heat shield. It's not bad, you can just hear it once in a while. The five speed automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts perfectly. I've personally put that last 150+ miles on this car and it is an absolute pleasure to drive. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with absolutely no complaints. If you're looking for a nice, low mile S-Class and don't want to blow a fortune on a super low mile granny mobile, this S430 definitely deserves your consideration. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.Features & Options 3-Point Rear Seat Belts 4-Wheel Disc Brakes AM/FM Stereo Adjustable Steering Wheel Air Bag Air conditioning Anti-Skid Control Anti-lock brakes Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror Automatic Transmission Body Side Moldings Bose Sound System Break-Resistant Glass CD CHANGER CD player Cassette player Center Arm Rest Center Console Chrome Wheels Climate Control Coolant Temp.

It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.About Us We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with No Reserve auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We get a lot of interesting, unique vehicles and many that have minor flaws. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection and describe what we see and feel to you in our descriptions. We try to provide as thorough and accurate a description as possible as well as including 40-60 photos. Understand however, that we are not professional mechanics and cannot predict the future. There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced and has a warranty. You will pay considerably less this way, but understand our vehicles are sold AS-IS and do not carry any kind of warranty. We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay, No Reserve, to happy new owners and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message. Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title.Terms & Conditions If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's message system, AKA "Ask Seller a Question". Bidding: Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible as well as posting 40-60 photos of each vehicle. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email using the "Ask seller a Question" link so that we can address your question or concern. Please wait to place your bid until you are completely comfortable. By placing a bid on our auction, you assert that you have read and agree to our Terms & Conditions as well as eBay's Terms & Conditions; you assert that you understand the risks of purchasing a used vehicle; and you assert that you have asked all questions PRIOR to placing your bid. Additionally, you enter into a binding contract to purchase the item they are bidding on should you be the winning bidder.

Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction.
Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a gorgeous 2001 Mercedes Benz S430 with just 93k original miles. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am a huge Mercedes Benz fan. I personally feel that they are the best designed, best built and longest lasting automobiles on the road. My personal daily driver is an 01 S55 AMG. I would rate the exterior of this Merc to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. As you can see, this is a gorgeous S430. It is finished in a rare medium blue over light gray with dark tinted windows and 18" chrome wheels. The finish has a mile deep shine and looks as smooth as glass. As with any older car, please expect a few imperfections and blemishes commensurate with age and mileage. Save for a few stone chips on the nose, there really isn't anything to complain about on the exterior. The body lines are nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk all open and close easily. Sometimes the drivers door soft close doesn't work...but the soft close works on the other doors and trunk. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The body looks to be completely rust free, which is very unusual as these W220's begin to age. The 18" chrome alloys really make the car. They show well and are wrapped in a nice set of Goodyear Eagle RS-A's with average tread all around. Please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully to see how nice this Mercedes looks.
I would rate the interior of this Mercedes S430 to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The light gray interior contrasts nicely against the medium blue exterior. The door panels are clean and tight. The carpets show well throughout the interior. The dash and headliner are clean, too. The light wood accents are unusual to find (most W220's have the darker wood) and really make the interior look great. The leather seats show well and are comfortable. Both front seats are power operated. The power windows, mirrors, sunroof, seats and central locks all work properly. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. It offers independent setting for the driver and passenger. The heater works well and the air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR, too. This S430 also has the full rear shades option. All three shades show well, are fully intact and raise and lower easily. The trunk is spacious and clean. Pride in ownership shows throughout this Mercedes-Benz.
Mechanically, this S430 appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 4.3L V8 starts easily and runs smoothly. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine does not smoke. Her road manners are excellent. The AirMatic suspension works properly and rides just like a W220 should ride. The steering and brakes feel good, too. The only warnings on are for the mirror turn signals being out. This is common, my S55 does this as well. The engine keeps perfect temperature and feels strong. You can hear a little rattle in the exhaust, which is probably a loose heat shield. It's not bad, you can just hear it once in a while. The five speed automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts perfectly. I've personally put that last 150+ miles on this car and it is an absolute pleasure to drive. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with absolutely no complaints. If you're looking for a nice, low mile S-Class and don't want to blow a fortune on a super low mile granny mobile, this S430 definitely deserves your consideration. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty: expressed, written, or implied. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.
If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's message system, AKA "Ask Seller a Question".
Bidding:
Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible as well as posting 40-60 photos of each vehicle. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email using the "Ask seller a Question" link so that we can address your question or concern. Please wait to place your bid until you are completely comfortable.
By placing a bid on our auction, you assert that you have read and agree to our Terms & Conditions as well as eBay's Terms & Conditions; you assert that you understand the risks of purchasing a used vehicle; and you assert that you have asked all questions PRIOR to placing your bid. Additionally, you enter into a binding contract to purchase the item they are bidding on should you be the winning bidder.
In the event of any bid retraction or bid change, it shall be the right of the seller to honor or not honor the outcome of the auction. This decision will be made at the sole discretion of the seller and can be made at any time, while the auction is live or after the auction closes. The seller may, at its sole discretion, cancel any bid or restrict any member from bidding on this or future auctions.
Winning Bidders:
Winning bidders are required to contact us via eBay Message within 48 hours of auction close and make arrangements for payment and vehicle pick-up. Please do not leave a voicemail on the office phone.
Full payment is due within 7 day of the auction's end. The prefferred method is to bring cash in person to complete the sale. If you are unable to bring cash in person within seven days or will be having the vehicle shipped, we also accept Certified Checks, USPS Postal Money Orders, and wire transfer.
PayPal is not an accepted payment method. This includes Bill Me Later.
We cannot accept credit cards or personal checks.
Vehicles that are not picked up within 14 days of auction's end will be charged a $10/day storage fee, unless other arrangments are made.
Non-paying Bidders:
We take great pride in our work and are very serious about what we do. Likewise, we expect the people who bid on our auctions to be serious about honoring their bid. If you are the successful bidder for any of our auctions and do not pay for your vehicle within the specified time, an Unpiad Item case willbe opend with eBay. This can severely restirct yur ability to purchse from all eBay sellers. You will be charged a $249 re-listing fee. All unpaid fees will be handed over to a collection agency and pursued to the fullest extent of the law.
Fee and Tax Information: The only fee added by the seller is our $149 fee. This is used to isolate our fixed expenses such as eBay fees, transportation, processing, etc., and is not applied to any costs incurred by the purchaser.
The purchaser is responsible for any and all costs associated with transfer of ownership including, but not limited to: registration, sales tax, tags (including temp or in-transit tags), title transfer, inspection, and transportation expenses.
We are a PennDOT issuing agent and able to complete most tag, registration, and title work, as well as collect sales tax, for Pennsylvania residents.
For out-of-state buyers PennDOT offers a 30-day temporary tag (aka In-Transit tag). The cost is $45 and the buyer must show a valid driver's license and current proof of insurance. We can issue them at our office.
We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with No Reserve auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We get a lot of interesting, unique vehicles and many that have minor flaws. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection and describe what we see and feel to you in our descriptions. We try to provide as thorough and accurate a description as possible as well as including 40-60 photos. Understand however, that we are not professional mechanics and cannot predict the future.
There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced and has a warranty. You will pay considerably less this way, but understand our vehicles are sold AS-IS and do not carry any kind of warranty.
We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay, No Reserve, to happy new owners and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message.
Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title.
This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified. I have done my best to accurately describe this vehicle. It is up to the buyer to come see and further inspect the car before the end of the auction.-->
