What Makes Mercedes In A Class By Themselves
Mercedes Benz has been making some of the most appealing vehicles for
over one hundred years. And, during that time they have made the general
public fall in love with their beautiful and smart designs. But, a few
of their models have become more popular and collectible among some
groups of the population. Specifically the G-Class and of course the 300
turbo diesel. These design and genius engineering in these types of
cars have put them at the top of the list for many collectors.
There is something about Mercedes vehicles that put them in a class all
by themselves. This German company just keeps car enthusiasts on the
edge of their seat when it comes to new releases. But, what is even more
interesting and impressive is their resale value and their
collectibility. Most cars after 30 plus years are no longer relevant.
These cars, like fine wine, just seem to get better and better with age.
This is especially true for the G-Class cross country model. This is one
design that keeps car enthusiasts coming back for more. Originally
developed for the military the G-Class was released in 1979 in a
civilian version because of their huge popularity. The G-class or
G-wagon is Mercedes four wheel drive vehicle or SUV as some would call
it. This highly collectible vehicle has handsome boxy styling and a
unmistakable look about it. Many people comb used car ads just hoping to
find one of these gems. But, owners of these impressive specimens are
reluctant to let go of these because of how rare and beautiful these
cars are.
Another highly collectible Mercedes is the 300 turbo diesel. This design
came on the scene first in 1979 and continued throughout the eighties.
The 300 turbo diesel came in a variety of body styles, including a sedan
and station wagon. Typically these designs used a lot of chrome styling
on the body and around the windows. But, most impressively this model,
as its name implies uses diesel instead of gas; which is precisely the
one of the characteristics that makes it so highly collectible today.
Today 300 turbo diesels are prized among younger generations and are
considered by many to be the best cars ever made. Of course, this has a
lot to do with their styling, but even more so to do with the engines
inside. These vehicles engines are so ingenious that can drive for over
200,000 miles and keeping on ticking without any trouble whatsoever.
But, that is not the only reason why they are prized among the younger
generations.
Many people have taken to putting vegetable oil in their 300 turbo
diesels as a way to be more environmentally conscious and save a little
here and there. For some reason it seems this type of car is able to
take vegetable oil in the same way that it utilizes diesel. This may not
have been the original intention in 1979 when the car was designed, but
seems to make the car itself more popular and collectable than ever
today. This makes you think, which one of todays Mercedes models will
be collectible in thirty years?

The Figo may have skipped the bright lights of the Auto
expo, but we got our hands on it under the Goan sun. Here are first impressions
of what is quite Figo-ratively a hugely impressive car.
The 1.4-litre Duratorq diesel we know well. It behaves very much like it does in the
Figos siblings. By this we mean the Figos got superb drivability, fantastic
low and mid-range response for city driving but feels a bit out of breath on
the highway, thanks to its modest 68bhp. We know this engine is fuel efficient
and very smooth, slightly audible by modern diesel standards and it is now
Bharat IV compliant.
Theres also a new 1.2-litre Duratec petrol thats
essentially a scaled down version of the engines that power the Fiesta and the
Fusion. It makes a decent 70bhp, is tractable and has good mid-range
performance. But, unlike the Fiesta motor, it doesnt feel as happy as the
top-end. It starts feeling strained at around 5000rpm, and labours to its
6600rpm redline. Peak torque of 10.4kgm isnt as good as the K-series engine in
the Ritz either. Still, the overall, the package is well tuned for a 1.2 motor.
Performance, as expected, is average. Fords claimed 0-100kph figures are 15.5
seconds for the petrol variant and 15.8 seconds for diesel models.
The Figos got great big-car feel. The ride is one of the
best in class, good at both low and high speeds. Its very stable at three
digit speeds and you can see Fords drivers car DNA in it. The steering is
light and nicely weighted for city use; though theres not much feel at speed,
its still nice and accurate.
The Figo is one of the biggest B-segment cars in India. Its
longer than the Swift, has a longer wheelbase than the Fusion. Interior space
is good, but not great, especially at the rear. Still, the seats make up by
being very supportive, and seat height and back support are good as well. Rear
seat comfort is especially good and Ford has made good use of the leg room
under the front seats.
Were not sure if we like the coral colours used on the
dashboard, but the faux aluminum trim does look good and the cabin has sporty
overtones with red stitching on the black seats.
Ford has priced the Figo on par with its rivals with the
base petrol 1.2 LXI retailing at Rs 4.12lakh (on-road Mumbai), rising up to Rs
5.20lakh for the top-end Titanium variant. The diesel Figo prices start at Rs
5.23lakh for the base 1.4 LXI, with the top-of-the-line Titanium variant going
up to Rs 6.20lakh. The hot hatch also comes with a two year warranty. So
theres lots of promise here.Our Opinion: The Ford Figo is on the larger side of a
hatchback and looks like a flick of the European Fiesta. Ford has really put in
a lot of effort to make the Figo as competitive as possible with its price and
their marketing position seems to be a well thought out plan. The Overall looks
are the trademark Ford style with traces of the Fiesta and the Fusion. The Ford
Figo is the available in both the diesel and petrol version and looks all set
to be a good competitor in the market.

Do-It-Yourself Oil Change
If you are interested in learning how to perform an oil change yourself, youll be happy to know that its not as hard as you might think. You could save an average of 50-60% off mechanics fees by learning how to do it yourself. The process is quite simple. First, you need to drain out the old oil. Second, replace the oil filter. Third, add the new oil and youre done! Seems pretty straightforward. You will, however, need the right tools and understand what oil is best suited for your car.An additional step to consider before an oil change is whether your car is due for one. Check the quality of the oil beforehand just to make sure that its necessary to change your oil. If the oil is clean, then you can probably wait a few hundred miles. If the oil looks dirty or thick, its time to change your oil.When you go to perform the first step, make sure that the engine is cool, otherwise you could suffer from severe burns. Its good to handle oil changes first thing in the morning after the car has sat in your driveway overnight. Also make sure you have a pan to catch all the old oil. Its important that this be disposed of properly. So when you take your oil plug with a wrench, collecting the oil is an important step. Once all the oil has finished draining, replace the plug.Next youll have to change the filter. When you remove the old oil filter it is wise to move the oil pan under it in case there is any excess that could spill as a result of removing it. When putting in a new filter, a good trick is to run your finger over the filter with some new oil to help it stick better. The most important part about putting in the new filter is that it is in there tight! If its not in there tight enough it could fall out when youre driving. Once secure, try to get it as tight as you can without over tightening it either. This is the trickiest step in the process.Replacing the oil is now the easiest part about a do-it-yourself oil change. You should, however, be keeping in mind what the best oil to use for your car is. There are a lot of brands out there to choose from. You should choose a brand that meets the American Petroleum Institute standard classification SL. There are also brands that include additives in their formula so that they work better at lubricating and cleaning your engine and keeping it cool. There are also special weights that work better for summer and winter. Your local auto store can help you find the best fit for your car.Locate the oil filler cap and simply pour the motor oil in, but make sure youre putting it into the right compartment! Even though this step is simple, a lot of first timers make the mistake of putting it in a different location. Make sure you only put as much oil as your car can handle to get the most our of your oil change.Its easy to handle and oil change on your own. Just make sure to follow all the steps and take the right precautions. If you are a frequent driver, you could save hundreds over the life of your car by learning how to do it yourself.
