The W123 chassis evolution continued with the addition of the 300D Turbo Diesel in 1982 (1981 for station wagon), sporting a 3.0 litre five-cylinder Garrett turbocharged engine which was originally developed in 1978 and first offered in the US market for 300SD models in 1979. This engine developed 118 to 123 hp (88 to 91 kW) and considerably improved the car's performance while still maintaining the superb reliability and efficiency of earlier models. The W124 chassis 300D (pre E Class facelift) has the OM603 engine, which is a 3.0 litre six-cylinder turbocharged engine that appeared for one year only, 1987. The Turbo Diesel W124 appeared anew in 1990 until 1993, as the 300D 2.5 Turbo, with the OM602 engine. The 300D badge continued on in the W124 chassis family until 1993, but as a completely different design. The CLS marked Mercedes-Benz's return to the executive-size coupe market since the (W124) E-Class Coupe (a two-door sedan) went out of production in 1995. The (W210) E-Class did not spawn a coupe variant, as Mercedes-Benz choose instead to introduce a smaller coupe based on the compact C-Class, the CLK-Class. However, the CLK-Class was built with a lengthened C-Class wheelbase so it could be slotted as a mid-sized vehicle, and it also featured styling cues, engines, and similar pricing to the (W210) E-Class to give the impression that the (W124) E-Class Coupe had been directly replaced.
Since the mid 90s the company has started to give special names to all of its vehicle series. They have a special one for this.. It is also one of the world's safest sport vehicles. As part of the Park Avenue Motor Cars family, Mercedes-Benz of West Chester offers an incredible selection of both new Mercedes-Benz models and pre-owned luxury vehicles. Production of the W123 chassis ended in 1985 but in many countries as many as 75% of the cars originally registered remain on the road today 20 years later, a testament to the quality and durability of the original design. Similar objectives were pursued with the Lomix project in the late 1990s, although these were more closely associated with production. Today the Sprinter 4×4 comes with a higher payload and more power. 0, Colour: Green, Mileage: 78000, Engine Power (bhp): 81, Engine Size: 2151, Model Year (YYYY): 2004, Manufacturer: Mercedes-Benz, Model Name: SPRINTER 411 CDI, Type: Minibus, Fuel: Diesel, Independent Vehicle Inspection: Yes, V5 Registration Document: Yes, Drive Side: Right-hand drive, Warranty: 0, Number of Seats: 17, Full Service History: Yes, MOT Expiry Date (MM/YYYY): 202011, Date of 1st Registration (DD/MM/YYYY): 20041215, Interior/Comfort Options: Parking Sensors, Features: Sliding Door, Reg.
These days, there are more consumers who prefer imported cars because of the safety features and after-sales service they provide. The cost-effectiveness of the Metris is due in large part to its flexible service schedules. The line was introduced with the 190c and 190Dc sedan in April, 1961, replacing the W120 180c/180Dc and W121 190b/190Db. The W110 line was refreshed in July, 1965 to become the 200 and Diesel 200D (model year 1966 for North America); at the same time, a six-cylinder 230 (successor to the Mercedes 220) became part of the W110 line. The 190c replaced the W120 180c/180Dc and W121 190b/190Db as Mercedes-Benz's line of less-expensive four-cylinder sedans. The W110 "Fintail" (German: Heckflosse) was Mercedes-Benz's line of midsize four-cylinder automobiles in the mid-1960s. In addition to the sedan (300D) a station wagon (300TD) and coupe (300CD) were also produced. The 300TD also had optional rearward facing third row seat which could fold flat into the floor, which was also seen on Volvo, Saab 95 and Ford Taurus station wagons. The Sprinter is the benchmark for many when looking at the large van class, and the new model aims to move the bar ever higher with an array of new technology and equipment never before seen on a commercial vehicle.
The "D" denoted a Diesel engine, a technology pioneered by Mercedes-Benz and championed despite widespread derision in the motoring press. Marketed as a 'four door coupe,' the CLS recalls the fastback saloon designs of Robert Opron in the 1970s. According to a Mercedes-Benz press release, the CLS-class was produced to combine the "strong, emotive charisma" of a coupe with the "comfort and practicality" of a saloon. The SL73 was briefly reintroduced in September 1999 following the SL's end of life facelift and a limited number were produced up until December 2001. The facelifted SL73 is the car that appears in the picture (below left). Life is like a mirror, we get the best results when we smile at it. Although we do not where you are going, we do know that the Mercedes Sprinter will get you there quickly, quietly, and safely. Only 3,000 CLS 55 AMG cars will be built each year.
