Hi good people - My W203 has been counting down nicely to an A service just after 17000 miles. This morning I checked, 600 miles to go, so I guess it's time for me to enquire at the local stealership. HOWEVER tonight on the way home it's now telling me I need a B SERVICE two spanner jobbie...

Hello good people - with my first A service due shortly at 17000 miles what are the chances of the standard 'MENU' price being added to by the stealership. If I have new pads what is the damage likely to be? What do people expect as decent lifespan on a car that's had an easy life. I know...

Hi people - I've had a look through the archives hoping for an answer but no joy. My W203 220 CDi (Goodyear Eagle NCT5s - 195/65 R15) which has now covered 15000 miles has worn the rears. Looking at previous posts it would seem that this while not brilliant wear is near enough normal. We...

You views on Jasper Blue? (Paint quality) Why did I (we) opt for Jasper blue. Hummph knowing what I know now I don't think I'd pick it again. We didn't want silver. I personally think silver is best suited to the more sporty mercs. Ours is a lowly W203 and thinking of future resale values we...

Hi peeps..... my W203 - six months old has been perfect up to this week, however.... Put some shopping in the boot the other night go in and started her up only to notice that the boot release switch was lit. Pushed it and nothing so I got out and tried to open boot with the key fob and...

Hi everyone - I didn't want this to be my first post but here goes. I'm a very proud owner of a W203 - new as at Sept 1st 03. 220CDi SE (hence auto) - now I've never owned an auto before (or Merc come to that!!) so it was a heart in the mouth type moment. However both wifey and myself love it...
