    ATS Air Con recharge £37.99 via Groupon

    I had mine done at Halfords a couple of years ago on my previous E220 and a spotty kid out of the shop just used a handheld bottle of refrigerant, with a gauge on the top (looked like a dial-type tyre pressure gauge). Previously when I've seen it done, a A/C machine (?) has been wheeled up to...

    Parktronic help needed

    If you don't have 'Active' Park assist, you still get the blue 'P' and when you engage reverse on seeing the little white arrow beside the 'P', the car asks if you require assistance and if you press 'yes', then it gives you instructions as to how far to turn the steering wheel and when to...

    Gave you tried the SE model estate. My old e220 sport (61) wasn’t rated to tow either. I think it’s only the AMG/sport models that aren’t.

    W205 Estate Common Faults & Towing

    I'll check tonight when I get home from work and let you know. EDIT: On the door plate, it shows the first line as 2345kg and the second line as 4445kg. I'm pretty sure that the second line is the gross weight of car and trailer, so it's definately rated to tow.

    W212 buyers guide?

    I had a 61 plate E220 sport, edition 125 and that was a great car, so great that for the first time in my life I bought a newer version of the same car when I upgraded. The 125 edition has the Xenon ILS, Sat Nav & bluetooth, but it also has the half & half Artico/suedette sport seats. It was a...

    E class towing

    I had a 2011 E220 AMG line, which couldn't tow, but I now have a 2015 (65) E220 SE, which can tow. On the plate in the drivers door pillar, it has a weight in each category which the 2011 didn't.

    Bottom spec W204 to high spec W205 C - worth it or save for an E-Class?

    My 2015 E class has been in for a service today and they loaned me a one month old C class for the day. Mine feels much nicer to drive, smoother and a better ride, I couldn't wait to get it back. Obviously, these things are all very subjective!

    Not that old chestnut t

    I paid less than your budget in February for a 65 plate E220 SE with 30k from MB Leeds. They had had it in stock since November and the price had dropped by over £2k in those three months. I still haven't worked out why it had sat there for so long without even being test driven (I found the...

    What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

    I had the same with the same tyre just before Christmas, a bulge on the inner of a rear tyre. It had only been on the car a matter of months, and I'd not hit anything with it either.
