    Sometimes Mercedes forgets to pay the bill.

    Can anyone beat this ?

    I’m pretty sure it makes you a ****.

    Ride quality - how harsh should it be?

    Mine is on P-Zero’s and the ride is pretty good. The only stretch of road where the ride and road noise gets really bad is around junction 12-8 on the M25, where I think they let someone on work experience relay it. The expansion joints between the concrete slabs are huge.

    What tyres are you using?

    I’ve still got the P-Zero’s on mine. They were fine over the summer, but they’re comically awful when cold. They feel like they’ve been inflated to 100psi until they start to warm up a bit.

    A new MB alloy wheel is HOW MUCH??

    I kerbed an alloy the other day, and took it to a place where they told me it would be a 1.5 day job, and about £170 to fix. As it’s the front passenger side wheel, and prone to kerbing, I thought it might be a good idea to buy a spare, and have them on rotation. I called the local MB...

    I like mine, but am still to fall in love with it.

    I’d be amazed if he’s not stacking shelves in Tesco’s now.

    It is! However, I’m slightly sad that I’m no longer the owner of the worlds rarest E63S. :(

    Sorry for the delay. He’s a pic of the repair. Car is a bit dirty, but I’m really pleased with it. Amazing job by the kind people at Listers Mercedes of Grimsby!

    The GLC has now gone. Sadly, I never warmed to it at all. It’s undoutedly fast, but that’s pretty much the only thing going for it. Maybe I would have liked it more if it had the sports exhaust, as you can forgive any AMG for being a crap drive if it sounds good, but this one sounded like a...

    I just got the car back... it looks as good as new! Had to drive straight to the train station, but I’ll take some pics tomorrow. MB of Grimsby really exceeded expectations this time. Such a great dealership to work with, even if it is 200 miles away! No apology from DW yet, other than a call...

    Yeah, silly me. If only I was a know-it-all like you, I’d never have encountered this issue.

    I’ll be getting the car back today. Will be interested to see how it looks. Everyone who has seen it says they are really pleased with the result, but I’d rather see it with my own eyes before making a final judgment.

    Yeah MB of Grimsby are awesome. I’m so lucky that I went with them, and not a dealership more local. The Stelvio looks an interesting SUV. I had a Giulia Quadrifoglio for a weekend last year, and thought it was great. On the Saturday it was sunny, and had great fun. On the Sunday it rained, and...

    It actually corners not too badly at all, which surprised me. When I first saw it I thought it was going to make me feel seasick, but it’s pretty planted and stays relatively flat through the corners. I find the 9 speed a bit clunkier than in mine. When you’re accelerating hard and going...

    :D I forgot one other thing... it doesn’t have the IWC clock. Shocking omission. In other news, my car should be finished by Friday, so am likely going to get it returned on Monday. It was a bigger job than they first envisaged, thanks to comical amounts of overspray on the wing, rear door, and...

    Several things: - it doesn’t sound like an AMG (no sports exhaust - blows my mind when people don’t spec it) - the boot is such a stupid shape - the crabbing at anywhere even remotely near full lock is horrendous - the interior feels really dated, and is a hotchpotch of a few new bits but mostly...
