family

probably in an attempt to shut me up going on about old cars my lovely wife has suggested buying me a classic for my 50th in a few years (ok, 3 and a half . . .) here`s the criteria, all opinions welcome 1) budget around 5k 2) must be family friendly - if i`m going to use it for...

1988 MERCEDES 230 E AUTO ONLY 22400 MILES WITH THE SAME FAMILY | eBay

So after our accident last weekend - my wife has decided that the safest place to be on the roads is in a merc, not her old focus. I'm inclined to agree with her. So I bought her a C class yesterday and suprised her with it this morning! Happy days Happy families Here's to happy motoring and...

Meet Leo a 9 week old Pomeranian boy :bannana: I would like advice on pet insurance, never had a pet insurance so any comments will be appreciated. I know "cover for life" is the best cover but which company....Directline, Morethan, Asda, RAC, etc. Thanks

Hello MB family. I have now sold my C124 to someone who will be restoring here back to its former glory. I have now returned to VW and would like to thank everyone who has helped me for the last 3 years in any queries I have raised. Thank you and god bless you all!!

So having recently purchased a nice low mileage c230k I was the proud owner of the fastest merc in the family. Clearly this did not sit well with my father stuck in his '05 clk 220 cdi. So, what did the old bu**er go and do? Bought himself an '09 plate clk 350 sport V6 less than a fortnight...

My brothers new e63 biturbo. In tenorite grey with grey trim. Lovely machine. My other brother is picking his w211 E55 up on weekend.. ive got the whole family hooked... gonna have some interesting family get togethers!!

My wife now has a 2007 C320 CDI ! with lots of goodies, sport model sits nicely with the SL 320 (R129) and my E 320 CDI (W211) Not sure if this was a wise decision but at least no one minds which car they take !

At the moment i own two cars a honda jazz and a w211 E320. I use the jazz for commuting and for taking stuff to the tip etc, I use the merc for family outings and everything else. My wife walks to work so we really don't need two cars, I'm thinking of selling the jazz but I'm worried if I do and...

Following on from my previous thread on suggestions for Mrs Blondes new family wagon to replace her current ML. Well after short listing them down to disco 4, RRS, ML and cayenne (not her choice but mine, seeing as I am paying I thought I should get some say) I went round to look at them all...

Mrs Blonde has decided she would like a new car to replace her ML. Seeing as I change mine on a regular basis ad she has had her current ml for 5 years (I thought it had only been 3 or 4!) i cant really say no, well I could but the garage isn't that comfy to live in. All she has said is...

Hi all, Family member is looking at recent but previous stylie A-Class as a runabout, thinking along the lines of around 2009-2010 onwards. I recall on the original A-class, any auto transmission woes were a major headache and in most cases rendered the car beyond economic repair as you...

Very happy to announce the arrival of one big bouncing, screaming w210 e55 AMG estate. Does everything it says on the tin and extremely happy!:bannana:

Hi all, Just thought I'd say hello after signing up for a while. I don't own a Mercedes myself but my dad has a facelift W211 220 CDi, this looks to be a good forum so I'm looking forward to interacting a bit more on here :) Thanks, Michael

The coupe looks rather good!

Sure there are some people on here who have visited London village or surrounding area before... Need to travel down for 3 nights in November with a three year old, so too young for his own room and trying to do something a bit different to Premier Inn (as they will provide a three bed room)...

The wife was getting broody for a fourth bambino so I thought I better act quick and take her mind away from those thoughts. We will be able to collect him in two weeks, and we all can't wait, here's a picture; The children have named him Seth...

The test of the practicality of the CLS as a family car was always going to be put to the test in our annual summer hols trip into Europe. With roofbox on (necessary evil) we cruised across to France, then Italy and back. It racked up 2,300 miles in 2 weeks and it didn't miss a beat. It happily...

Thought I’d post some pics & share the story of our 300D and it's progress here in Japan. It's a completely rust free 165,000km (103,000 mile) example I bought for a measley sum, but then spent more on it for parts, taxes, registration, etc. than the base cost. It replaces my wife's Lexus IS300...

Excuse my rant ... I have a family of Golikelys living on the flat above my shop I let it slide when I had to change the beds after they broke them being too fat (several times) I let it slide when I had to change the settee after they broke it due to being so fat I let it slide...
