Review Q&A benz ponton
Is it possible for classic cars to be reborn as electric vehicles?
The classic car community is very strict about authenticity. According to one restorer, who worked on a 1960 Mercedes-Benz “ponton”, he made sure that all the wiring was the correct colour. They would regard an electric conversion as spoiled.
Do they have cars in Syria?
Car produced in Syria Syrian car assembly line Siamco car factory near Damascus Syrian yellow cabs: Mercedes-Benz Pontons (1953–1962) The country is a paradise for finding vintage cars What you could expect on a normal business day, 6-months prior to the start of the events that have ravaged the country Having said that, it is only very recently that Syria has started manufacturing cars. For many years, they were assembling only tuk tuks. If I remember correctly they were not calling them tuk tuks, but it might have been “tastazan”. I am not certain what the deal was about 3 vs 4-wheeled vehicles, I believe that when a country starts manufacturing cars (4-wheels), it would trigger some specific classification system either with the World Bank or with some other institution. So for many years, Syria simply ignored the necessity of starting to establish their national car industry. The interesting thing in Syria, is that you might see the most recent Mercedes Benz car, next to some other type of vehicle Notice the axis and tires: as contemporary technology as it can get There are places where your car won’t be able to enter, and where donkeys would come quite handy As a kid, I remember visiting Syria with my parents from Turkey regularly. Once we went there with the new Anadol which was a car manufactured in Turkey which happen to be at the time the first fiberglass bodied four-door sedan in the world. A, Turkish Anadol, the body is made out of fiberglass It was during winter and it snowed very heavily. Somehow someone could not control sufficiently their vehicle and ended up hitting slightly the back of our car. We had some small damage which was a hole the size of a fist (remember that the car was made out of fiberglass). The car made a huge sensation and guys were shouting “sayyara carton” meaning a “car made out of cardboard”.
Out of all the different Mercedes that you've owned over the years, which one was your favorite, and why? What made that one so special?
I’ve had (hold on, I have to count…) 23 Mercedes. A whole pile of W123s, a couple of Pontons (that oil hydraulic system for windows is trippy), a W108, various W116, a few W126s (like one of those would be in 2nd place), a W220, a couple of W460 “OG” G-wagens, a couple of Unimogs, a W113, a couple of R107s… but the big gun, the winner, the one that I wish I’d hung onto… (and I had three, so there was plenty of opportunity to hang on) was the ,Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 Take a W116 S-class. Give it a full tilt hydraulic suspension, that can be adjusted for comfort or sport (and makes some attempt to self-adjust as well). Give it massive four-wheel disk brakes and four-wheel fully independent suspension. Add in a massive 6.9 liter V8 M100 engine, fuel injected and dry-sumped, and tuned within half an inch of its life. What was driving it like?? (from the Wikipedia article) The suspension system gave the 4200 pound (1900 kg) car the benefits of both a ,smooth ride, and ,handling, that allowed it, in the words of automotive journalist ,David E. Davis,, to be "tossed about like a ,Mini,." And Top speed was factory-rated at 140 mph (225 km/h). Among the journalists that tested and reviewed the car was ,Brock Yates,. Yates was approached by the factory to write promotional literature about the 6.9. He agreed, but under the condition that he could list the car's faults as well as its positives. Daimler-Benz agreed in turn, and Yates was given a US-spec 6.9 to drive from ,Manhattan, to the ,Road Atlanta, grand prix race track in ,Georgia,. There, Yates was to drive the car in as-arrived condition at racing speeds for a full 40 laps or just over 100 miles (160 km). The only change made to the car upon its arrival at Road Atlanta was the necessary adjustment of tire pressure. Driving 40 laps was a difficult task even for a purpose-built race car, let alone a street-legal sedan designed and geared for high-speed ,Autobahn, cruising. The 6.9 suffered no mechanical problems and averaged a very respectable 72 mph (116 km/h) throughout the test, completing it with little more than excess dust on the bodywork from the ,Michelin, ,radial, street tires on which the car was driven to Atlanta. Yates was so comfortable driving the 6.9 around the track that he reported having run at least one lap with the sunroof open and the radio on, but the high price of the car made him think better of such risky driving and he finished the test with the radio off and both hands on the wheel.,[10] The reality? All that and more. I used to turn low 1:20s in my “hot” 930 at Portland International; that’s Spec Racer Ford lap times, in a street legal car with street tires. In this sucker, weighing at least another thousand pounds more, I was turning high 1:20s. Again, on street tires. I could totally relate to Brock Yates wanting to open the sunroof and turn on the radio. And on the highway? It was like a magic carpet - not the floaty-boaty Buick Roadmaster ride, or the “so smooth you can cut a diamond” ride of the same-period Lincoln Town Car, because while it WAS that, it also got really, really tight if you pushed it. It was the perfect, perfect road trip car. For you, and five of your closest friends. For two weeks, including luggage. Maybe even golf clubs. The downsides? M100 engine parts - being super rare - were stupid expensive, even then. It took premium fuel, and lots of it. Mileage was in the very low teens unless you “opened it up” in which case you were in mid-single digits. And OMG trying to park it… it was huge. Cavernous on the inside, but like an anti-Tardis, it was even bigger on the outside. Eventually practical matters overtook me, and I moved the first one on. Then I had to have another, and bought - and returned - the second in less than a week (it had terminal frame issues that were known, but not disclosed, by the owner). And then I bought the final one, thinking (of course) that I’d have it forever. It was a 1979 European model, complete with the adjustable ride-height and adjustable headlights, and another 50 HP. It didn’t have power mirrors or seats, but did have fully functional climate control with dual zones. I no longer have photos of it, but it was pretty indistinguishable from any other Mercedes S-class W116 of the period except for this bit on the back: Only about 1700 of them in the US had that. At the time I bought the last one, I think I paid about $5k for it. When it was new, the window sticker said it was over $63k - more than a same-year Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. I sold it for about $10k to a lawyer friend of mine in Texas in the early 2000s. They are, interestingly, not stupid expensive these days (high-$20k’s to mid-$30k’s) but it’s still unlikely I’l re-up for another run. You never know though… I could see one in gold, with Texas longhorns on the hood… cowhide leather interior…
As part of the development of the W140 series Mercedes Benz S Class, the engineers were said to have explored a suspension system based on cardanic isolation of the passenger cell from a perimeter frame. How would this have worked?
As described by ,W140, Chief Engineer Wolfgang Peter, with a wheelbase of 3040 mm, Mercedes-Benz was set to produce nothing less than a living room on wheels. Although it was the nineteen-eighties, chief developer Rudolf Hornig looked far back into the history of road transport in order to find the benchmark for traveling comfort. He had been inspired by the way the passenger compartment of horse-drawn coaches was suspended in a frame by means of leather straps. This design had a number of advantages: the compartment was completely decoupled from the chassis and, therefore, from the influence of the vehicle's unsprung masses. A contemporary interpretation of this principle could produce a limousine offering the ride comfort of a sedan chair. Hornig hoped that a workable solution could be found by using a ",perimeter frame," within which the vehicle body would be mounted by means of a ,cardanic ,suspension system,. Hornig and his team spent some 18 months trying to overcome the difficulties associated with the system. But it was still too early to count on reliable support from electronic control systems and, much to their disappointment, the team accepted that the design was not robust enough and would not be able to satisfy MercedesBenz quality standards in time for the scheduled market launch. The development team reverted to using subframes - a Daimler- Benz invention dating from the nineteen-fifties which had made its debut in the 180 Ponton model. However, there was no change of policy as far as the imposing size of the new MercedesBenz was concerned: it was retained as the dominant visual cue for automotive excellence. The excursion into the technical intricacies of the perimeter frame, which was too heavy and defied all attempts to eliminate vibration, and the decidedly late adoption of a high-performance brake system for the W 140 meant that the start of production was delayed by 18 months. A fact that went almost entirely unnoticed by the public. Source : ,Ever wonder why the W140 was so big? Also, read Transmission part in ,Page on jrtr.net
What is the best classic Mercedes-Benz?
It is, of course, a matter of personal preference, but I hope that my choice will not offend too many people: I present to your attention Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing The ,Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, (W198) was the first iteration of the ,SL-Class, ,grand tourer, and fastest production car of its day. Introduced in 1954 as a two-seat ,coupé, with distinctive ,gull-wing doors,, it was later offered as an open ,roadster,. Built by ,Daimler-Benz, AG, the ,direct fuel injected, production model was based on the company's highly successful yet somewhat less powerful carbureted ,overhead cam, ,straight 6, 1952 racer, the ,W194,. The idea of a toned-down Grand Prix car tailored to affluent performance enthusiasts in the booming post-war American market was suggested by ,Max Hoffman,. Mercedes accepted the gamble and the new 300 SL – 300 for its 3.0 litre engine displacement and SL for ,Sport Leicht, (Sport Light) – was introduced at the 1954 ,New York Auto Show, rather than the ,Frankfurt,or ,Geneva, gatherings company models made their usual debuts. Immediately successful and today iconic, the 300 SL stood alone with its distinctive doors, first-ever production fuel injection, and world's fastest top speed. The original coupé was available from March 1955 to 1957, the roadster from 1957 to 1963. A smaller, slightly heavier, less luxurious and much cheaper 1.9 liter roadster using the Ponton class 4-cylinder engine was introduced in 1955 as the ,190 SL,. Both the 300 SL and the 190 SL were followed in the Mercedes line by the ,230 SL,. The more modern 426 kW; 579 PS (571 hp), nearly 320 km/h (200 mph), gull-winged ,Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, is regarded as the 300 SL's spiritual successor.
What is the highest mileage car that you've heard of? My PT Cruiser is over 400,000 miles. I'm wondering what other high mileage cars are out there.
While working for Daimler, I regularly sent out these front grill badges for Mercedes-Benz cars that have passed the 1,000,000 KMs (about 620,000 Miles) milestone, plus a few that had passed 2M and 3M K’s. I do remember trading a new car for a 3,000,000 KM car for the museum in Stuttgart, and if I recall correctly, it was a ,Ponton, vehicle.
What does E-Class stand for in Mercedes?
The Mercedes-Benz E class is an executive car that is the middle class between C and S class models. It is also considered to be a mid-sized luxury saloon, so Mercedes-Benz has chosen to term it as the ‘Executive Car’. Although the production of E class officially started in 1993, its history can be traced back to 1953 to the first-ever Mercedes-Benz W120, which was also called the Ponton 180. The Ponton 180 featured a smaller four-cylinder engine and was a stylish car. The Mercedes-Benz midsize cars would continue to be produced until 1993. Mercedes-Benz then officially launched the E class with its first-generation model, known as the W124. The current fifth generation of the Mercedes-Benz E Class is the best executive car that you can buy in the market today.
