Sam aka Mr OCD 🤣 I guess you could say I'm not a true OCD person 🤣....... In my case OCD stands for Obsessive Car Disorder 😁

Thank you! :)

Thank you! :) It's the pic as the number plate holder is oem one and is screwed into the 4 holes that are in the boot lid but I clearly didn't do a very good job taking the pic :) I’ve adjusted the pic a bit here and it looks straight now

Not much to report apart from getting a new plate for the S63AMG. I have a few plates that say OCD as a joke as most of us car enthusiasts seem to have a bit of an OCD when it comes to our cars :D The current plate that’s on the car also says OCD but I wanted something different. The plate for...

A few people might not like them ( especially because “ I “ is spaced out but I love my plates and I finally managed to buy one for the S63 so that it matches the V12 S class and the M3 plate :)

Thank you @badgx :) I fully agree and no matter what I can do for them now, it will never match the sacrifices they’ve made. He’s loving the car and he drives it every day unlike me that I seem to wash my cars more than drive them 😆

I was looking at that today as I check for an E55AMG every day and it made me think, will the w211 E55AMG ever be like the W124 500e? If so, we will look back and say why o why didn’t I buy one when you could pick up a good one for £10k! I’ve heard, back in the day, you could get an e30 M3 for...

Thank you! 🙏 Have you seen the car anywhere else? :)

@ALFAitalia i took this pic the other day and a genuine xenon headlamp, the light output looked the same as they do on the SLK now

I’m surprised as well that an S65AMG is up for such little money! Yes, they are VERY expensive car to maintain properly but that’s no surprise as it’s still a £180k car to maintain. You might get them cheap now but I don’t think this cars should be run on a budget. You can’t expect it to be as...

Lets just say the BMW S65 engine is not one of the strongest engines BMW has made 😁 but the V8 M3 is my fav M3 that BMW has made. The last one I had, I didn't drive it much that's why I would love to own another one. There are other V8 engines out there that are better but I will admit, I'm a...

I have seen that and you're right, halogen light the pattern is all over the place. I wouldn't have fitted the HID's to the SLK if the pattern was the same :) Thank you! :) I haven't checked the engine number but I'll do that now, thank you for the link. 🤣 Thank you! :) It makes me feel...

I understand what you're saying and I have read the manual as well but looking at the headlamps on the SLK, one with factory Xenons and one without Xenons, what is the difference just by looking at it? For example, this headlamp is genuine Xenon The one below is a non Xenon headlamp They...

Thank you! :) I wish it was an SLK55 😁

Thank you! :)

Even though the headlamps look like the cars with Xenons, they are just normal h7 bulbs which look like candles. I ordered some HID’s, led side lights and now I can actually see at night. In case anyone is wondering if the HID kit would be a mot failer….. It shouldn’t be an mot failer as cars...

Hello everyone, I need some reassurance that I’m not alone in this and you guys also do this sort of thing? It seems like I just can’t help myself when it comes to cars and end up buying something I don’t need! I never thought I’d own a car that I recently bought as it’s never been the sort...

That's not my postcode as I've noticed it reveals it when posting a link but thank you for mentioning it as it might help others :) I might start using Charlies post code as well 😄
