This is a really rare and Classic Mercedes Turbo Diesel Limo.   Converted by Cooks in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.  This is one of my personal limos and it is alot of fun.   Everyone can rent a cadillac, lincoln or hummer, but when is the last time, if ever, that you saw a Mercedes limo?  The car really attracts attention and is a lot of fun.   This car is about 20' long and it is perfect for traveling down the highway or navigating in the tight city streets.  It will fit in garages whether it is yours at your home or a public one.  Parking it on the street is easy.

This is Mercedes' super reliable and long lived turbo diesel engine.   This engine starts everytime and runs and runs.  Very reliable.  Car runs and drives well.  Transmission shifts well and the brakes work as well.  Mechanically in very good shape.   The miles are original and the title indicates actual miles. it has 127,908 miles. This engine is just barely broken in as it is one of Mercedes most reliable drivelines. Air conditioning systems are in the car but will need work. Tachometer does not work. Divider window works.  If you want to impress people with an affordable car, this is the one to have.  

We had the car painted a few years ago in House of Kolors "Ice White".  Black top is in good shape.   Body is in very good shape.  Tires only have a couple of thousand miles on them as you can see in the pictures.  Steering box has less than a thousand miles on it.  We have the reserve set to the low side of the value of this car.   It can be bought and enjoyed right now.

Please review the pictures and let me know if you have any questions.  Please email us questions through the ebay system or call me on my cell phone with questions.  My name is Steve and my number is 708-205-2043.

We are happy to work with international bidders and will do anything we can to make it easy for any bidder to win the car.  As this was one of my personal limos I want it to go to a good home that will enjoy it as much as I have.  This car really attracts attention and it really adds to a night out on the town.  We would like the winning bidder to send us a $1000 deposit within 3 days and the balance within 7 days.   We would like to have the car picked up within 10 days but we can keep it longer if we have made prior arrangements with you.  As it is a classic, we are selling the car as is.   All funds must clear our account prior to releasing the vehicle .

You can look forward to safe and happy motoring in this car.
