    Hi

    Welcome on board, Lesley. I got palladium silver and wished I had the Tenorite Grey...... Nice looking car - enjoy! Lots of friendly black and white advice on here.

    UMI and USB Hard Drives - definitive guide?

    Usb I just plugged a USB stick with a load of music in the USB socket in the centre console of mine (the car is the same as yours only delivered Monday) and it works a treat. Not as good as the UMI in the last car (fitted by Alfie) but reasonable. Need to have a bit of a look as only some album...

    1st pics of my C63 Estate

    No, I am not jealous at all. Much. I pick up mine on monday - same colour as yours but a miserable C220CDi :( At least you convinced me that palladium silver suits the car. Yours is a lovely looking motor and I hope you have many miles of pleasure

    MB website - Configurator

    Yep, it really annoyed me as well. Just based my eventual choice on what I had hired in Germany a few months back. It is being delivered on 17th so will then find out for sure if palladium silver really was a good idea or not

    Grand Prix - The Killer Years

    Didn't realise that it was a repeat but a really good documentary. Better than watching England play badly against Ukraine and much more informative

    Colchester to Bulford best route Monday morning

    I agree with Alps - I live in Leavenheath just north of Colchester going either to Heathrow or to the office (sometimes) and usually leave home before 6am to avoid the traffic. Going southabout you will hit the Junction 5/6 snarl up, which is just as bad as anything going around the North. SInce...

    Points removing - fee?

    Back to topic, if you have had your passport renewed recently (within a year or two, I think) then you can get your licence renewed online paying by card, as they will use the passport photo. Got mine back within a week when I did this. Then you have to send the old licence and counterpart back...

    AMG regularly dissed - why?

    As above, yes I suppose in the pursuit of more sales, the marketing people have won against the engineers and effectively diluted the brand. Personally, I lust (but in a nice way) after a proper AMG - filled up last week on the A127 and a gorgeous new silver SL AMG was there (footballer's...

    Car thief

    He's definitely got a banjo string short of a full instrument there.......... Must have been completley off his face to do that

    Effing BMW X5 Drivers

    Let's face it - it is not the car or even the marque (although in anecdotal evidence people tend to notice them more), it is the person behind the wheel who is either: a) Arrogant and from the "I'm bigger than you brigade so I can drive where I like", or b) Somehwat inadequate in the trouser...

    Drive belt on CLK 320

    Close escape, Alex. Good to get it all fixed, though. Looking forward to seeing this beast after you've worked even more of your usual magic on it

    Effing BMW X5 Drivers

    With due apologies to all BMW drivers on here and a certain ex 7 series one, plus having been carved up by one on the York ring road this afternoon who just barged in using the "might is right" rule, I could not resist this I just love stereotypes - my daughter is convinced I drive an old...

    Drive belt on CLK 320

    Nice to see a quick diagnosis Alex - hope it is a good (not too expensive) result. Cheers!
