    C Class W205 250D - Tyres required on the rear

    My rims are only 18's. I have a local firm that I will use. If you have a look on asda tyres or black circles it will give you an idea of cost. My road tax is £30 also seeing they are 18 inch rims.:)

    A service for a W205 C class 250D

    Last weekend my Sat Nav screen went blank or should I say black, the sides of the screen moved in until the screen was gone, then about 30 seconds later it came back on and asked me to ok the usual sat nav message when driving, then went off again ten minutes later.

    My C Class test drive (part 1)
