Really hoping for the new Honda Africa twin, but I don’t think my girls had enough wrapping paper, so I’ve settled for a bike mag and some socks, we’ll happy.

Happy birthday.

Good luck with getting the dealer to sort, if you don’t get any joy there, then your choices are finding a decent independent to fit new unit, which will prob set you back £1500-£2000, or find someone who can refurbish your own unit. What I would say from my own experiences, is that it may well...

Love watching Tasos, those pistons cleaned up a treat. Mid way through he mentioned something about oil consumption, I think he mentioned synthetic, but couldn’t quite hear an even after re-running a few times. Great to see him back, being grumpy, his hate for the wrong application of silicon...

Cars looking fab, how are your headlights fairing, I’ve just restored mine using the cerakote kit, suggested by someone here on the forum, bit of elbow grease, but great results.

Anyone.

Hello all, I’ve got a w211 E55 2003 with audio probs, the cd multi changer has stopped working but has power, as when I remove fuse six then replace it goes through some sort of start up sequence. The control panel no longer rises,together with steering wheel controls. The radio works, and the...

Yes agree, food for though most certainly.

Thanks, that’s very helpful.

Thant you, I’ll attemp to get some more up to date shots when I get a chance. I bought the car from a members father in 2020, there are pics of car and info available from 29/09/2020 stephensjason, only differences are wheel arches have been sorted, and different wheels (still original for...
