New diesel engine NOX emissions are phenomenal (in particular - to my knowledge - from BMW and Mercedes) lower than the petrol average Cars That Produce The Most NOx (NO2) Air Pollution - Which?

About a year for me (which is quite bad when I think about it) ... Though we've had Mrs Lfckeepers VW Eos for coming up 4 years now.

Yes they did, a fantastic idea owing to the weight, I believe in the U.S they made an 'interstate' version where a few of the 'mod cons' were removed, including the reverse gear, they will have been very awkward indeed to try and move backwards.... The weight disappeared over about 3 mph .. Its...

My 1998 R1 (the original and best) My Honda Goldwing (stop sniggering at the back :D) And for reasons I can't fathom because it caused me nothing but aggravation my black CLS W219..

Had the 5 series in for a service today, so took the opportunity to have a wander into the car showrooms nearby, boy was I in for a surprise! The Vauxhall Insignia looks a bit boring on the outside but I was surprised how nice it felt inside - very well put together. The Volvo S90 was...

So I've guessed you don't like Motorcycles. . And as one went passed you... You didn't like it .. One can make an assumption that as he 'wouldn't let you passed in your car' you drove right up his back end.. Then from the sounds of it made a dangerous overtaking manoeuvre? In my...

I'll confess .. I didn't know there was an OT section :oops: .... Now I do, judging by the comments on here, I'll stay away This is the only forum I'm on. Not just motoring but full stop. I tried joining others (when I bought the BMW and more recently my new Motorbike) but it felt like most...

In the Audi.. "does it sound as good as the AMG.... No" :D Had to chuckle at that

Go to BMW, Merc, Land Rover etc pretend to be interested in a similar priced car and see what their part ex offers are? Give you a good idea if the offer is in the right area. Could even use it at Jaguar if any of the others offer you more

I drove a 2000 mile round trip to Berlin in an 05 C class.with 'leather' seats ... I actually thought it was a very comfortable car.... Guess everyone is different

I miss my memory seats ... I dropped something down the side of the seat, reaching down I knocked the seat adjustment button .. Took two days driving to work to get it back 'just right' .... Also I can't move the driver seat when cleaning the car .. Just in case

Kawasaki Vulcan... I'm getting old :D I have a Honda Hornet at the moment and any further than 40-50 miles I'm in agony, its too small (I'm 6'4" and around 16st)

Yeah, it's a physical button on the end of the wiper stalk Might have to have a look into the coding

Haha .... Yeah it seems like that.. But I think this is more of a personal thing than the car being 'bad' .... I'm just not feeling it with the BMW. In all the mercs if had, I got to the end of the journey wanting to carry on, I wanted to spend time in the car, I don't with the 5er.. Its 'just...

I'll try leaving the stalk up and put the auto on see if that works If memory serves with the Cls you twist the stalk down and the wipers are on auto. In the BMW there is an auto button on the end of the stalk which for me turns off if you turn the car off.. But I'm hoping the above fixes my issue
