2003 Mercedes Benz E500 - 1 Owner
Where Luxury Meets Performance...
You are looking at a an absolute jewel of an automobile. We trade/acquire a lot of full size Mercedes and I have to say this may be one of the nicest we have ever put our hands on.Finished ina Gun Metal Gray and set of nicely with aEbony Leather Interior. It is very obvious that this Big Benz was meticulously maintained and well cared for. This one owner E500 was never smoked in...the ash trays are free from scarring and the vehicle is absolutely free from any odors.
The Exterior is in VERY GOOD condition for the year with only a handful of blemishes (highlighted in photos) on the body. A small scuff on the rear bumper, the rear bumper cover is missing a small insert, a couple of dings without broken paint, some very small stone chips and some road rash on the wheels are all that I could find wrong with the exterior. The tires look to have about 50% of the tread The paint is free from any swirl or environmental fallout. The shine and sheer is beautiful and deep. The autocheck does reveal a minor accident. The front bumper and edge of the hood was backed into. The bumper and hood were simply professionally refinished. The vehicle comes with a CLEAR, UNBRANDED PA TITLE!
The Interior shows virtually no wear what so ever. All the seats are free from tears/rips or wear. The headliner is in pristine condition...free from sagging or stains. The dash is NOT faded or cracked. All the Walnut Burl Wood Trim is tremendous shape. One cup holder while completely functional does stick and needs some coaxing to open. I simply opened the cup holder and left it open. The carpeting is free from any stains or wearing. The floor mats are in decent condition with the Mercedes Insignia embroidered on them.
Mechanically the car absolutely exceeded all of my expectations. The car drives straight as an arrow and at 85 mph it wanted to keep going. I didn't even realize I was doing 85...needless to say I had to utilize the cruise control. I drove this car over 100 miles and averaged 15 city and 18mpg on the highway. The engine is quite and everything is completely dry underneath. Everything operates exactly as it should...the AC is cold, the heater is hot. The heated seats, memory seats, auto climate control, radio/audio, moon roof, all power features, steering wheel controls, power seats...EVERYTHING works perfectly. THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS ON! This vehicle does come with books, floor mats and one key/fob.
We describe every automobile in great detail. We are never vague. We take great pride in describing vehicles accurately. We probably go into too much detail, but we want every customer to be able to make an educated decision on bidding on our products! Bid with confidence...this is a very nice E500 that will be sold at a fraction of what it cost new and what others are going for with 150,000+ miles with beat up bodies.
A Little About Us...
I spent 25 years in the automobile industry as a General Manager and CEO. I got out of the business 7 years ago so I could spend more time with my family (car business hours at long and hard). My son came to me a year ago and said he was thinking about going into the car business. I simply said "why don't we get a dealers license and sell 4-5 clean cars a month and see where it takes us. I own and operate an indoor baseball academy now, but I missed the business terribly and therefore we started a little wholesale/retail business. We operate mostly out of our home and only buy nice cars. We don't get mixed up with project or edgy cars...we only sell nice, reliable automobiles. We only buy cars from people we know and that I have been doing business with for the past 25 years or privately. If a car is not right...we simply pass on it or sell it at the auction. Because our overhead is so low we are able to sell these cars at extremely affordable prices.
We sell every car at NO RESERVE.We sell exclusively on eBay auction to the general public and represent them in their as-is state. Many of our vehicles are bought by dealers because the prices are so reasonable and most importantly because the cars are in such great condition. At the end of the auction we sell the vehicle whether we make or lose money. Every description is as detailed as possible. We are completely transparent. If you are not sure about something...PLEASE ASK, we will be happy to answer any and all questions. If DASH LIGHTS are on...we will tell you about them. If a car has a major blemish, dent or scrape we will tell you about it. If something is not working we will tell you about it. If a dash light comes on during your ride home it is your responsibility. We do notguarantee that a vehicle will pass state inspection inyour state. These vehicles are nice quality automobiles soldwholesale.All vehicles are sold AS -IS. We are not responsible for minor cosmetic defects. It is the buyers responsibility to perform a pre-sale inspection or express any and all concerns prior to placing a bid and prior to winning the final binding auction. This is a tremendous opportunity for you to buy a vehicle well below the average retail value if you are agreeable to these terms and conditions.
Administrative Fee
WE DON'T CHARGE A DOCUMENTATION OR ADMINISTRATIVE FEE.Philosophically we do not believe that it is the end user or customers responsibility to pay for our cost of doing business. Our costs are just that...our costs of doing and being in business, not yours!
Motor vehicle & Issuing of Plates
Because we only obtained a wholesale and limited retail license we are not able to issue temporary tags or collect state sales tax(s). It is the buyer's responsibility to dotheir own tag work and satisfy all state and local taxesin thelocale where they choose to register the car. The buyer must provide proof of insurance and provide a copy of a valid drivers license. If the buyer is unable to obtain a temporary transit tag or complete registration in their state without the car being present we will take the buyer to our local notary that handles all our title work. They are extremely reasonable and very proficient in what they do.
