    should i - shouldn't i

    A good friend of mine has a bodyshop and he has advised me before that metallic silver can be blended easily enough. Any decent bodyshop worth their mustard should be able to do this sort of thing without it noticing. Cheers

    W124 front bumper

    By thunder that was quick!!!! Top man John, thanks very much. You're right, it's just the insert that's been broken off. It happend that my good lady reversed it into a wall so I may be able to bag the rear bumper too.

    W124 front bumper

    Uneven idle

    Thanks guys. I will try and get some pics of the car up when I am able, but to be fair it's not a prime example but a hell of a lot of car for the money!! Martyn. I'm working my way up to SL500, long way to go yet!!

    13 years of service history missing

    I would echo the majoirty of sentiments on here. It comes down to how much money you're spending in my opinion. To take my example I spotted my E220 firmly lodged in the sub £1k category so you're not going to expect a concours vehicle for that. I went to view it and it was filthy inside and...

    Hi all New member here. I have never had a Mercedes before but I was recently browsing cars in the local area and spotted a 93L W124 E220 with 145k miles with a stamped up service book for £700. What a brilliant car! I absolutely love it! It does have some minor issues which I am hoping...
