Hi, everyone! Just joined the thread after buying my first MB. Don't laugh but it's a 55 plate C160(On a budget and got it at a decent dollar). Never really bought it for speed but hoping to put some new ICE in it and some fairly subtle exterior mods (having had a look about the net, seem...

As per the title....any recommendations ? Ideally someone with W124 expertise. I'm planning to do all of my own spannering on my 260e but it would be useful to suss this out as an insurance policy. TIA :thumb:

Hi folks! I've been away for a wee while (had a nightmarish three years tbh) and hit rock bottom but I won't go into that. The long and the short of it is that I'm trying to get myself back on my feet. I'm trying to set up a wee business in the Glasgow area. My folks are going to...

Hi all, Does anyone know of any coding/MB specialist firms in Scotland or the North of England? Also is there an easy way (apart from looking for the dash switches) to tell if my mirrors have the internals required to fold on a W203? Many Thanks Euan

Being in Scotland I sometimes get requests for recommendations for MERCEDES specialists in the Aberdeen area or further North. I am slightly out of touch now about this so if anyone has any suggestions / recommendations it would be good to know of your experiences. There are already several...

Hi all, I come her looking for advice.. I foolishly bought a W123 on ebay a few months ago, using heart not head :confused:.... and now am in a position to have to dispose of it. I have been advised by two garages I trust that the amount of rust in the rear section means it is not worth fixing...

Right, let's put the collective might of MBClubUK to work. A few weeks ago I drove from Edinburgh to the M74 and passed under a particularly impressive skew bridge. I've retraced what I assume was my route on Google Earth (probably the A702, but it was Digital Doris who called the shots) but...
