    A new MB alloy wheel is HOW MUCH??

    I kerbed an alloy the other day, and took it to a place where they told me it would be a 1.5 day job, and about £170 to fix. As it’s the front passenger side wheel, and prone to kerbing, I thought it might be a good idea to buy a spare, and have them on rotation. I called the local MB...

    (Not so) Smart Repair

    Long story short... bought smart repair when I picked up my car from the dealer. Some idiot opened their door on mine, leaving a scuff. Dent Wizard FINALLY came over to repair it yesterday. Below pics illustrate their sterling efforts. I’m sure you’ll agree, it matches every other panel...

    The effect of postcodes on car insurance...

    I finally got around to calling Elephant to tell them I had moved house. I was pleasantly surprised when the lady informed me that my current annual premium was going to drop by £760! I didn’t imagine the drop would be that large. I used to live in a quite nice neighbourhood (Dulwich Village)...

    MB on an Amex charge card. Possible?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to pay for a new MB on an Amex charge card, and has anyone done it? I’m getting my new car in a couple of weeks, and have always intended to pay cash. However, a thought popped in to my head that I could pay for it on my Amex, get the rewards, and then pay it...

    McLaren Vs C63 Coupe

    On the M20, london bound, at about Midday today. An orange McLaren and a white C63 coupe decided to race each other, weaving in and out of fairly heavy traffic. They caused mayhem, and I nearly rear ended a Honda because the old lady driving it was so thrown by it that she slammed on her brakes...

    New car detailing in Oxfordshire?

    I’m moving from London to Oxfordshire (Sutton Courtenay) in a couple of weeks. My new car is FINALLY arriving in March, and I’m keen to get it detailed. Has anyone got any recommendations for a detailer in Oxfordshire? New house has a massive double garage, so a mobile detailer would be fine...

    Mercedes are selling off some of their All Time Stars

    Had a look on my Facewebs this morning, and saw an ad from MB, stating that they’ve run out of space, and have decided to sell off some of their classic cars: Classic Car Trading. I’ll take the SLR Roadster and the 600 W100, thanks.

    W213 E63S - Breaking Engine In. Am I being dumb?

    I’m taking delivery of a new E63S soon(ish). The chap in the dealership has told me that the engine will need to be broken in for 1,000 miles, then gradually driven harder for the next 800, before the complimentary oil change at 1,800, when you can give it the full beans. He also said this...

    1st Mercedes...

    Hello MBClub. Just ordered my first ever Mercedes. An E63S. Quite looking forward to the delivery date, but it's still a long way off, so will probably go insane before it arrives.
