Picked up a 2013 plate CLS 250 CDI AMG last week. The brakes are IMO awful, feel very soft to me, i have to really stomp on the brake pedal to see any kind of urgent braking. I didn't expect this given this model is supposed to have the better "sports braking system". Appreciate its a big lump...

All, i have another 17months to run on an Agility finance deal for a B class. I'm thinking about changing this for a Skoda Octavia estate vrs, there are some cracking deals on the go at the moment and the B is a great car but too dull for me! Question is, how would this work? can i pay the...

Its service time and i'm thinking about using an Indi specialist as there is approx £175 difference in cost between them and the main dealer. I asked MB customer services how the Indi can update the Digital Service Record (DSR) and they said, go to the http://service-parts.mercedes-benz.com...

My 11 month old, 7800 miles, B180 petrol is telling me a B service is due in 30 days, but the ESS report from the MB site says an A service is due... bit confused why would the car think it needs a major service after a little under 8K miles. Anyone else seen this kind of thing?

Really surprised by how affordable the C63 is, on the MB wesite the deal is £7K deposit, £4K.5 dealer contribution then £629 a month! i though it would be so much more expensive... the local dealer is having a summer BBQ try before you buy event on Saturady, and its my birthday... very tempted...

after 5000 miles i'm finaly starting to get decent MPG from my B180 BlueEfficancy petrol - 51MPG on a short hop along the M8.

the start stop function on my B class has stopped working, checked the manual and there is a mention of the outside temprature needing to be "within the comfort range" for the start/stop option to work. Anyone know what this comfort range is? e

just wondering if anyone knows whether or not i *must* have the car serviced at a main dealer if its on a 3 year MB finance PCP deal? ta e

Some pictures from the MB "Gallery" on the Unter Den Linden in Berlin, basicly a plush showroom with no sales staff, but a nice coffee bar and some slidey hostess who shows you around, i liked the AMG Lounge best :)

Heading of to Berlin for a long weekend and looking for some suggestions of places to visit, normaly pubs and clubs would be on the list but mrs s is 5 months preggers so art, good food and culture are a better bet. anyone got some suggestions about place to go and things to see? TIA e

All, had my new B180 sport BlueEfficancy for 2 weeks now, so far 700 miles and liking it a lot. However, there is s squeek, a big squeek, a consitant squeek from the rear suspension (i think) of the car whenever anyone gets in/out. Same thing happens using the front or back seats, passanger or...

All, picking up a new B180 Sport BlueEfficancy tomorrow and wondered if anyone could provide a rough checklist of things to confirm before signing it over as A-OK. Of course the dealer will to their PDI etc. but obvisouly i should ensure i'm 100% happy before accetping it. Also, should i expect...

All, been over on the BMW side with a Z4 for 18 months but going to be a dad in Feb so i need more seats. Looked at a B180 Sport last week and very taken by it, seems to be exactly the kind of thing i need, quality looks good and there are some good finance deals on at the MB dealers just now...

Decided to get something with 2 seats and no roof before kids come along and its all estate cars and baby seats. I’ve been really happy with my C200k so looked at a SLK to stick with the MB brand. Sorry to say I didn’t really like the SLK and really didn’t like the price tag so off to the Dark...
