Markjay, There were 4 or 5 services carried out by MB before I purchased the car, they were shown to me on the computer in the dealership when deciding whether to buy or not. I've owned the car 18 months and last September, a garage who I trust carried out the oil and filter service. They do...

But I've never had it serviced at Mercedes, my local garage does it, I've only done one service and it was an oil and filter change There have been 4 or 5 services carried out by Mercedes before I purchased the car. So I don't have a service invoice with a SEC code.

So sadly I've decided to sell my C Class estate as the boot is not big enough. Today I settled the finance agreement with Mercedes via the Mercedes Me login. On trying to print off the service report to give to my buyer, I need a SEC code: MB want me to send off photographic ID and a copy of...

Thank you for all the replies, along with other questions raised as we went along. We are in very strange times, and knowing what to do is very difficult. The fact that thousands of workers who have been furloughed with the gov't paying 80% of their salary up to £2,500 per month is excellent...

Yes, just like all the furloughed workers on 80% salary. Employees have been protected, company directors and self employed not so, despite what they say.

We get 100% rate relief, so there are no rates to pay.

No it's a grant and does not need to be repaid

Would like members thoughts and opinions on the following please. I own my own business and share shop premises with another business. We split all the bills (rent, electric, phone, water etc) 50/50 and any repairs 50/50. As per current rules our shop is shut. As we have a small rateable...

I have Avons on mine, I think they are an excellent mid range tyre. Not noisy, wearing well and not too expensive.

Update: Big thank you to Mercedes Benz Newcastle. Responded very quickly to my email, price included free delivery and was shipped very quickly. An excellent way to buy genuine parts especially if your nearest dealer is not too close. Graham

Sorry but |I think your idea and my idea of 'simple fixes' vary quite a bit. The wheels need a refurb, and the bodywork needs an expert. That is my opinion of course. The fact that you are asking makes me think it is beyond your skill level. If I am wrong, I'm sorry, and good luck.

I'll give them a call - Thanks

The two I checked on were without clips

The mercedes one comes with the clips at £46 inc VAT. Cannot buy clips on their own. My local dealer is over 20 miles away, and they won't post the item out, which is why I was hoping to buy online.

To make life easier when removing the battery I always put the bonnet in the straight up vertical position. That worked fine until I wanted to lower it down again and the strut was stuck. In removing the bottom retaining clip, it broke. The strut itself needs replacing as well. All the new...
