    Mercedes R170 2002 SLK

    Anyone else got any thoughts? Any MKI SLK officiados out there please. I know they can rust but this one drives so well. Can I run it on a fairly tight budget. I dont want it to take over had that before on other cars. Servicing is fine and necessary. I accept that.

    Alloy wheels on W203 CDI

    Thanks for that BTB. I quite like having a full size one if I can. I have one on my Jag aswell. How does your C230 2.5 go they are nice too. What sort of consumption do you get out of it on average?
