Hi Rory, mine is a 2003, what is the trick?? Can it be done on mine? I am relying on the cluster to tell me that my oil is 'OK' but would much rather see the amount! Thanks

62 litres plus 8 in reserve if memory serves me right

I think the bit that annoyed me the most is that had I not pulled out my last MOT document to check the date I wouldnt have seen the tax receipt and noticed it was less... The new price seemed right as thats what my older car was so I hadnt realised the change in price until I compared! Ah...

Ah well, Toyota Prius it is then...:doh:

One more thing... Where do I complain about the service I receive from the Road Tax I pay? - Motorway traffic jams - Pot holes - Lack of road gritting over winter period If we pay for a service should be not get what we are paying for?? Grrrrr!

Sure enough, here it is... UK Road Tax Prices | Vehicle Car Tax Rates | Car Tax Calculator | Vehicle Excise Duty - Parker's Mine has gone up from 175 to 200 pounds for the year

It has just dawned on me that last time I paid road tax (6 months ago) it was £96 for my 2003 C220 CDI Avantgarde yet on the document that came through for the renewal I noticed it was £110. Has road tax gone up, and if so, has it gone up that much??

Well as i had a day off work today and the car is due an MOT next week i thought i best go and get the tyres sorted. I took advantage of an offer at Kwikfit online and had 4 x bridgestones nitro balancing alignment Full works. Hopefully they will last quite a while! I guess that with nitro...

Scary reading. As i've always said, technology is good, but not in certain places. I know the days are long gone, put for steering and brakes, i'd rather know that the bits I turn/press are actually connected to the devices rather than some electronics that then tell it what i've done... All I...

Hi Iain, thanks. Thats interesting, I have never heard of either of those and they seem cheaper. From your comments, are you saying that they are better than either the Pirelli or Bridgestones? Thanks

one pound per tyre, probably worth 4 quid to see if it makes a difference?

Oh, AND, is this nitrogen filling worth the little extra with a promise to increase up to 5% fuel efficiency? Thanks

Hi all, Need 4 new tyres and not sure which to go for, am stuck between these two Pirelli P7 or Bridgestone ER300, both have a similar price. Both are 205/55R16 Can anyone recommend one over the other? I mainly do motorway miles and am looking at a long lasting tyre that may also help me...

engine is fine, thanks

hi all, I have a W203 2003 C220 CDI and the rear view mirror has developed a really annoying vibration at certain RPM and if I dont get it fixed i'm going to end up knocking it off! Moving it cures it for a while, but then it returns again. Anyone had this and what to do? im a bit wary as I...

hi all, I 'have' searched and couldnt really make out a few things on this... Could anyone correct me on the following: - It has leather seats, so will have to use alternative seat heaters and do my best to get them inserted into the seats? If anyone has done this, which model would you...
