    E53 or something else

    That’s great to know. Performance wise I love the E350, but prefer the 400. There’s no way the wife will agree to a 63 and I’m not looking for that sort of power; but she seems to be pretty accepting of ‘something a little more exciting’ so the 53 seemed like a good choice. What I didn't want...

    E53 or something else

    A friend has the long range Model Y. It looks bland, but performance wise, it’s very similar to my wife's car although the instant acceleration gives it the edge on the straight, which got me thinking about other EV’s. What surprised me the most, is although he’s not paying tax (yet), his...

    E53 or something else

    I’ve never owned a car for so long. I usually replace after 3-4 years, so just got a little itch. What I like about my car is I can fit my mountain bike in the boot with ease. I also travel to Scotland every other year from the south and on occasions, drive to the South of France on holiday. I...

    E53 or something else

    I’ve been sitting on this for about a year now and still can’t make up my mind. I don’t think I’m ready for electric yet, but the rumours that electric sales will overtake everything else in the next 3 years keeps niggling me. I currently have a 2014 E350 estate and I tell you what; it’s the...

    NOx - Understanding How Many Of Us

    It’s interesting reading about everyones experience. Despite living in Berkshire, I was recommended Basingstoke MB by a good friend. I’ve always taken my cars there for all work/services and they’ve been great. When I picked up my wife’s car up after having the sensors replaced, the service guy...

    NOx - Understanding How Many Of Us

    For the last two to three years, every time my 2014 E350 has gone in for a service/MOT its had the NOx sensors replaced (currently on 85k). This year, they couldn't even get the sensor out, so just replaced that part of the exhaust and sensor! I was advised by the garage that this was a diesel...

    What a friggin weekend.

    I've given the police all the information I have received from Facebook and they've asked for a statement next week. (I'm dealing with a nightshift officer at the moment). The insurance company only have the details provided straight after the accident, so don't have any of the latest info...

    What a friggin weekend.

    Not a single person stopped to help. One person asked me if I could move the car because it was blocking the road! no I’m fine thanks, I’ve had so many rear end accidents now, my back is knackered anyway. It was just a shock at first. No dash cam or cctv, although there are a few leads after...

    What a friggin weekend.

    I dropped my son off at football for warm up on Saturday morning and the drove towards Costa in Reading. As I drove around the roundabout, I could see a BMW 6-series convertible from the corner of my eye steaming towards the roundabout. For a split second I thought he was going to hit me, then...

    Third party has gone into radio silence....

    I managed to catch him out by phoning via the home line. He must have been driving at the time because although I could hear everything he said, the quality isn't amazing. anyhow, I kept him on loud speaker and recorded the conversation from my ipad. He's agreed to pay, so what with this and...

    i love my E350, but my wife’s E400 (3.5 version) cabriolet is a much nicer drive!

    I’ve extended my warranty each year. Is it worth it, some years yes, others no, but it’s just some piece of mind.
