local

Hey all. I'm in West Sussex, and have just installed my new (W203 Coupe) Facelift Comand APS. I have also installed the MB iPod kit for it. Is there anyone local who has the Star Diagnostic who can help me out updating the software, for little or no fee? Don't really wanna spent the money at...

I'm sorry to be starting this thread in the wrong place (i actually couldn't think of where else to put it :P) but i have some welding that i need doing, and i dont want to try doing it myself as its proven to be alot harder than i originally thought. So as the title states... could anyone...

Was just having a little walk about last night with the little one and happen to pass our local garage.... So I had a look :) I like the wheels on this... This looked superb... Whats the little cubby just at the end of the arm rest and before the Command control...

I took my car into a local independent garage to have a leaky fuel tank repaired / replaced. This was monday, and they told me it would cost £230 for them to repair it and be done by wednesday afternoon (today). On this basis I agreed to let them do the work, but they have just phoned to tell...

I received a warning letter from the local police yesterday saying that a community partnership volunteer clocked my speed on chobham road as over 30mph and that I wouldnt be prosecuted this time! Now, I remember seeing an elderly man lurking in the bushes on the day in question. He pointed...

Car is a w203 just over 12 months old and with 30k on the clock, the Pad warning light came on yesterday (although it has not been on today...) so looks like I need some pads changing. 1) Do I HAVE to have this done by MB dealer to keep my warranty intact ? 2) If I have a local do it (the...

Hello, Doing my usual walk round the block with the little un... I always end up waking past the local Merc garage and have a look at whats new... I like the look of this ML, says its 'edition' on the side, has nice wheels, quad looking pipes (the standard ones with anther bar in middle)...

Just had a B Service done by the local garage I got the Merc from - would normally do myself but car has 12 months warranty, should be taken back to them for any warranty work (they deal with the warranty co etc) and I need a "official" service for the warranty. Worked out quite well - got...

hiding in amongst all the other rubbish spewed out by various town halls and council officers is this wonderful piece of work http://www.londoncouncils.gov.uk/upload/public/attachments/1250/071015%20As%20advertised%20(FINAL).pdf page 14 is particularly odious What's next? Rounding...

My c220 cdi will not start. Can some one advice me to find a local MB garrage. I dont want to go to the MB Showroom. heard it is expensive.

I live in the East Midlands, but can now only receive West Midlands Local TV News???:crazy: I used to have two aerials: - 1. Pointing at Birmingham for West Midlands, as this was the strongest signal for all stations 1 to 5. 2. Pointing at Nottingham for East Midlands Local News. When...

I've bought quite a few sets of tyres over the years. Is it me or has the gap between online and local outfits widened? I only ask this as I've never bought tyres off the 'net before (in this case, mytyres.co.uk) Normally with a bit of ringing round the local outifts I've managed to...

Just got back from my local Stealership (parts guy very unhelpful even though I had the part numbers :rolleyes: ) and I noticed they have the new BRABUS accessories brochures in stock. Can post cost & part numbers if anyone requires? How about some Offical BRABUS shiney pedals? a Steal -...

Popped into my local dealer yesterday to have new Registration plates made up for my cherished number and while there metnioned some very slight blistering on the alloys of my 8 month old CLK. Out comes an assistant, goes round all four and said "as long as I can see something it will be 4 new...

I've decided to really cut down on some of the leisure,(angling), stuff that I have collected over the years but I dont want to hawk it round the car boot scene or second hand shops. As you can see above its mainly fishing equipment and, to be fair, its not rubbish. Ideally, I would love it...

Thought some of you might be interested in this thats happening around our way :rock: Our local radio are having an auction with a difference.Its called "how-lo" What you have do do is think of a price that no one has bid and you could win a ferrari 430 or £100k in cash,the difference is the...

I know this goes against the grain...but I was majorly impressed with the Stealers at Cribbs Causeway in Bristol. I even wrote to them to let them know. I took my car back with many faults (headrest motor, heated seats, radio, cd, navigation, and linguatronic all playing up) They couldn't...

Today when I called the local dealer, they've introduced a new scam of charging £28.50 for the use of a loan car. Of course, I also have to provide insurance and fuel. Is this unusal, or are all the dealers doing thing? I could fill a book with rants about (most) Merc dealers (but won't...
