    Winter Tyres - the great con???

    Saved my life in my old E250.. Driving up A505 near royston a car pulled out of a side road and turned right instead of crossing the 2 lanes and then turning right, so ended up coming straight at me, the wrong way down a dual carriageway as I was overtaking an artic.. Most of the braking force...

    Blimey, how long does it take to run in or do you have a <10 mile commute?;)

    Very Excited

    How are you enjoying the car? Thinking about an E53 coupe in 12 months or so to replace my M4, which I bought when the Mercedes ran out of HUD's and the wheels I liked when I was about to buy an E400 a few years ago! :(

    Parktronic

    So they don't sell this or even allow you to subscribe to it anymore? I'm thinking about an E53 coupe but I really want this feature as a car park I regularly park in has a habit of attracting selfish ****'s who park with their eyes closed..!

    Hidden or not very well documented "features" on your Mercedes ?

    If you hold it down long enough it should close the roof blind too as that's the effect of holding the roof close button long enough.. :-)

    Hidden or not very well documented "features" on your Mercedes ?

    Tunnel mode.. Open all your windows and sunroof to different states of open.. Press and hold the recirculation button on AC and they will close.. Press and hold it again and they will open to where you had them before.. I'm surprised it wasn't already here, maybe it's so well known...

    What do you want to know?

    Hi JBD, any insight in to when we might see the E53 coupe launched please? I was about to order an e400 but wheel and hud shortages have put that on hold, wondering if the amg e coupe I've heard rumours of might be out by the time they come back into stock?

    Heads up Display

    Looks like there is still a problem or it's a new problem with HUD, I am ready to place an order for an E400 Coupe and at the last minute they tell me i can't have the 20" wheels I want or the HUD.. How can they run out of things like that for so long? I'm not ordering my car until it's...

    E Class Sport Coupe Pic request

    Hi folks, Have just ordered an E250 Coupe Sport as a new company car.. I've ordered it with distronic plus and some other bits but I read elsewhere on here that the front of the car might not be as nice... Does anyone have one with it fitted who could take a quick snap of it please? Google has...

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    Those two dials either side of the DSR button are part of the "Off Road Pro" package, the airmatic I was expecting on the car was just the button to the left of the ESP.. I got some bunce back so I'm happy with that..

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    offtopic Richard, what do you think to the 3? My daily driver is an E92 335i and I love it.. Looking at the CLS in the dealer this morning, I'd rather the 3 over one of those any day, it seems smaller in the back and the back doors make the front doors tiny in comparison to the veritable barn...

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    Turns out the cars with Airmatic were from July build onwards.. Although I'm not sure how much of that I believe as the brochure went to press in November 2006.. I've had the cost of it refunded and I'm about happy enough with that.. The comand is still an issue but compared with BMW, the...

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    Picked ours up on Saturday! Nice car, obs black, comand, easypack, offroad styling etc. One major issue, I noticed in the brochure that Airmatic was standard on 420 cdi, 500 and the '63 but it's arrived without it.. The dealer is looking into it but has anyone else any idea why that would be...

    COMAND and the ML

    Sounds like your dealer has a badly specced M to sell you.. Not looked at M's in the book but on BM's the glass' guide has a different figure (usually higher) for cars with SatNav than for cars without..

    ML420CDi - anyone got one?

    PS. Ignore those residual figures on the X5's. I reckon the 3.0dSE figures will take a helluva knock when the sport model comes out with the x35d engine!
