    Expensive mobile

    I thought the new Nokia 8800 looks tasty. Metal case and glass rather than plastic screen. Quick search on eBay brought this item up, complete with heart stopping price! Only accepts payment by Western Union money transfer to Italy. Smells fishy.

    Jaguar Dealer in Leeds

    They did me a favour! My car is over three years old and I like to have newer car. Nearly new Mercs are a bit overpriced (in my opinion) at the moment and I have always fancied the X-Type (cue shouts of "it's a Mondeo"). I went to the Leeds main dealer to have a look and was looking at a...

    Windows Media Player Problem

    Last week my PC crashed big style so I had to use the manufacturers recovery disk to reinstall Windows XP. Since then Windows Media Player displays video in poor quality colour a bit like a 256 colour display. My display is set to 32bit high colour and my NVidia card has the latest drivers. I...

    Donkey Kong Song

    This is quite good. It is Van Halen's "Jump" sung by Donkey Kong to a backdrop of dozens of old computer games.

    "NTLDR Missing Please Restart" HELP!!!

    My PC won't start up. It switches on and says the above. That's as far as I can get every time. Anyone any idea how I can get hold of the file NTLDR and then how I can boot up my PC? I assume I need some sort of start up disc. I can't use the OEM CD which came with the Pc as all that does is...

    Power Steering Reservoir Filler Cap

    I know this subject has been up before, but my power steering is making groaning noises when approaching full lock. However, the manual does not say anything about how to top up the reservoir and I can't locate the filler cap to check it. Where is it located??? (W203) :confused:

    iBook wireless surfing

    As the kids are hogging the PC more and more, I've treated myself to a new toy. I wanted a small laptop to connect wirelessly to our broadband internet. Most small Windows laptops are a bit expensive, but the 12in Apple iBook has just been reduced to £699 and it is already wireless enabled. All...

    Strange light activity

    I got into my W203 this evening after work and sat for a short while to phone the wife on the mobile. Just after the interior light faded out, (with key in ignition) I noticed the instrument lights flash briefly, every few seconds. I am not sure, but I think the exterior lights flashed also...

    Cr@p Service from Mercedes Dealer in Leeds

    I have just sent this email to Derwent Leeds customer service: My wife had BMWs during the 1990s and we had nothing like this poor standard of customer care. Not impressed. Are all Merc dealers this bad?

    Warning Messages

    Occasionally I get messages something like: Warning BAS - visit workshop Warning ESP - visit workshop It is always both the above. When I next drive the car, the messages have gone. The occurrences are usually weeks apart. Anyone had similar? :confused:

    I know this is not a Merc topic but . . . .

    My wife has a 2003 VW Polo with 7,000 miles on it and the offside brake light has failed. Guess what? YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO CHANGE THE BULB! I can't believe it! Having looked at the access to the light assembly inside the boot of the car, there is no obvious access and the owners...

    W203 'B' Service

    I have an '02 C180, with Assyst showing 'B' service due in 7,000 miles. Anyone know how much this service is likely to cost? It will be it's first 'B' service and the mileage will be about 22/23k. I had the poo scared out of me seeing someone had spent £1,100 on a service for a W202 at 31k on...

    Scuffed mirror casing

    Everything in UK car parks is designed to cater for vehicles smaller than a Daewoo Matiz. Anyway, I've scuffed the nearside mirror casing, taking a very small area of paint off. If I was a normal human being, I'd just accept it, as my 2002 C180 (would that be a W203?) is Tektite Grey, the...
