Thats it, thats what I saw. They disguised it so well it looked like a C Class:D Wish I'd taken a photo. I also saw some sort of people carrier with only one person in it in the customs shed being stripped to bits. The owner? looked pretty forlorn:) Dave

John, They looked to small for the E Class to be honest and one was parked in the next lane to me so I had a chance to have a good gawp at it. I thought they may be an AMG version or something a bit different. Is there a new E coming out? anyone got any pics of it? Dave

While waiting to board the chunnel train last Monday in Calais I spotted 3 new C Class MB's all heavily disguised, all had German plates. Don't they know they have been released here ages ago? Dave (1 year with my 5 series and loving it but really fancy the CLS next March)

Yes, it has the window switches on the horizontal door rests, also those round lights on the front headlights. A couple of cool things is the front headlights, at the top there is a permanent yellow light lit with LED's and the rear lights have what look like fluorescent tubes running across...

Err, dunno! it is the new facelifted model that has only just come out. I stalled it 3 times tonight I keep forgetting to put the clutch in after two years with an auto:) Dave

Gollum, I did post some links when someone asked what the most beautiful car in the world ever was but see this link to my car: http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s115/Davek_photo/Pic062.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s115/Davek_photo/Pic421.jpg I have the very early 1961 3.8...

The 5 series has grown me over time maybe because there are so many around nowadays. I have a very good friend who is a salesman there and he worked the deal out:) I always wanted a Merc and have been lucky enough to own two of them from new and both have been great cars. The 5 is the new...

Hmm, don't know what happened to that post MBUK seems to have picked up the name I used when I had trouble logging in a few months ago, never happened before so don't know why it did it. So you are probably thinking who is this new user who is leaving after just 3 posts:) Dave

I took my E-Type to Silverstone for the day and it featured on the "Used car roadshow" it got 3 minutes which is good I have been told. Don't expect to get treated like a movie star, a couple of sarnies and a bag of crisps also don't expect to get paid! all you get after about 3 months is your...

Further spring reduction £15,800 Dave

Have a look at this link, its all in Swedish I think but you'll get the idea looking at the photos. http://www.geenstijl.nl/paginas/mirror/20070215-pritt-mazda/index.html Dave

Jason whatsisname wrote that on the screen after a recent top gear program showed the Eagle E-Type which had just been sold for that price, the Eagle cars are a modern car with an old shell and sell for a lot more then that. In all honesty mine would be worth half that because it is one of the...

Hey! the E-type is over 40 years old you can lose the narrow track by fitting 6" wide wirewheels and using 205 tyres, have a look at mine: I haven't worked out how to upload photos so you'll to click the links; http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s115/Davek_photo/Pic059-1.jpg...

I hate wood in cars it always seems to look cheap (just my humble opinion) but having said that instead of the ali dash in the Avantgarde I have the black maple, didn't have a choice in that it was the only choice I had from the new cars that were in the country at the time. Had I have waited...

Started looking at a few cars to see whats about, had a test drive in the BMW 5 series and thought how drab the interior looked, I still have to test drive the 2.5 V6 Lexus, not much in my opinion comes close to the interior of a Merc so I too hope that isn't the final interior, my 05' looks far...

Anyone have any details of when the new C Class arrives over here? or any definite pics? Dave

No, the loophole is still live the case hasn't been heard yet, its due for late July/August and in any case there will be appeals on either side:bannana: Dave

Received this from a friend today which I think is interesting and may help a few people here: The issue is that when they send you the notice of intended prosecution (if they ever do) you commit an offence if you do not give the details of the driver. However, the Police and Criminal...

Thought some of you might be interested in these performance parts, I am keen on getting the cross drilled brake lines and radiator insulator :D http://tinyurl.com/9kheb Dave
