Diesel

Classic Mercedes diesel, black exterior with durable MB-tex palomino interior. Very economical to operate and drive. This car has been an excellent daily driver, and gets positive comments, however I am selling due to recent purchase of four wheel drive subaru. Mechanically, the 5 cylinder 3.0L motor runs strong and starts easily. Transmission shifts quick and smoothly into all gears and reverse. Steering is tight, and the ride is superior, with new bilstein shocks and OEM control arms. Does not smoke, or leak oil. This car has been fully converted to be bio-diesel capable with viton fuel lines and runs equally well on bio or petro-diesel. Interior is very clean, with new dealer floor-mats. Wood-panels are intact with the exception of one chip shown in pictures. All seats are comfortable, with no bad springs. Overall, in very good condition with some original patina. Courtesy lights, power windows, all outside lights, horn, wiper blades, power sunroof all work correctly. Door locks and antenna working manually only. Exterior paint is decent, although some areas could use clear-coat. If the bidding goes over $3k, I will include pictured yakima rack and accessories ($300+ value). The following is a list of items that have been replaced in the last 12 months (all parts used are OEM Mercedes brands): All new brake rotors and pads New front brake hoses Front and rear motor mounts Engine vacuum lines and valves All new bilstein HD shocks New front upper control arms Replaced throttle linkage Replaced oil pan gasket Valve adjustment and diesel purge New diesel injectors New interior seats front and rear New floormats Blaupunkt CD/radio with bluetooth Replaced rear window seal You can see a youtube video of the car running and driving here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neRJsGD1kqA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0WXOosJJrU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua1u0sPfwDE Good luck bidding! Note: Odometer miles are 153k, though I am unable to verify originality due to previous owner stated that he replaced the instrument cluster when the odo quit working. Title is Clean and Clear. If you have any questions about the car, please feel free to call me by phone at 503-449-1827 Brian.
