    Saying Goodbye to Mercedes............................(For Now)

    Well, last Saturday I said goodbye to the Mercedes AMG C43 coupe, and Hello to a 2021 Maserati Ghibli. It's a 2ltr mild hybrid with 330BHP and a 0-60 time of 5.7, so I'm not loosing much in the way of useable power and speed. I have really enjoyed my time with the 2 AMGs I've owned over the...

    Thinking of a 207 Convertible

    Apologies for any offence that may have been caused, that was the level of my humour at quater past 10 on a Friday night shift. It tickled me at the time anyway. As for the E-Class convertible you actually asked about, You're in one of the best places to get advice, when the right people come...

    Thinking of a 207 Convertible

    You mean one of these? I think the entry level came with a bit more than 14BHP

    Was good, would have been so much better if the cloud wasn't like driving through fog and I didn't have a petrified other half sat in the back

    C43 exhauts

    The OP says he doesn't have the performance exhaust, so I wouldn't think there's any exhaust flap valves to check. Without the Performance Exhaust on a 2019 model, I'm surprised you were getting any crackles or pops to begin with as there are very few to be heard with the Performance Exhaust...

    Not real AMGs, but thought some of you might like some of the screenshots I've taken recently from Forza Horizon 4 on the Xbox:

    AMG CLA45S+ launch date in UK?

    CLA45 can now be configured via the Mercedes website, though there's not much to configure as there's a base model CLA45 S 4Matic+ or a CLA45 S 4Matic+ Plus, which is basically the Premium Plus package along with Aerodynamic package and Leather seats. The only configurable options on the cars...

    AMG wheels guards/mud flaps

    I fitted some cheap rubber mudflaps to the front of my old CLA45 to stop this. I drilled them and fixed them to 2 or 3 existing fixings on the wheel arch liner. Not the best pics, but gives you some idea:

    Mercedes Me

    On my C43, which was new last November, the Mercedes Me adapter was standard. I would assume it is with all new mercs now. I have found the app useful when wanting to save a bit of time inputting a destination in the sat-nav. You can use the mobility part of the app to find your destination and...

    AMG’s in Picture.....

    A few AMGs from Goodwood: (Sorry, there's quite a few) I know they're not all strictly AMGs, but the links are tenuous enough to get away with.

    What is “Crabbing” on a C63?

    'Crabbing' or 'tyre Skip' in the sense you're referring to is very low speed turning with the wheels at full lock (or close to full lock). You feel a juddering sensation as the suspension geometry and hard sidewalls of the tyres don't flex enough to allow smooth roll of the tyres over the road...

    AMG PRIVATE LOUNGE REVAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Working for me now, though it doesn't feel very easy to navigate at the moment. No new post highlights so you have to wade through and see what you've read and what you haven't.

    Correct Badging!

    I believe it was mid-2015 when the badge position was changed, It also changed from Mercedes-Benz (Insert model name) AMG to Mercedes-AMG (insert model name) So rather then being a Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG it is now Mercedes-AMG C63, or with my experience of my previous car (CLA45), upto model...
