    Happens on my wife's GLA. I think she's hitting the window buttons on the drivers arm rest when she gets in or out, or a window is not resetting to the fully closed position, then when the rain sensor detect moisture, the window(s) close and hence the message from the app. I've gone out and...

    Seems I sold my car to an idiot!!

    In the early 90's, I sold a car to a guy that told me he'd just got his license back after being banned for drinking driving. Needless to say, that started the alarm bells ringing. He paid cash, it was only a few hundred quid. I had two receipts already written out, one for him to keep and the...

    I got it, and noticed the difference in wording as well. My wife received it as well for her car.

    It's not often......

    This is Junction 15 of the M1, went through here the other day, they're still doing work on it. I came off south bound and wanted to get onto the A508, I dread to think what it's going to be like when it's finished.

    Car owners' liability for the condition of their tyres

    Everyday is a learning day, I did not know that. Would this also apply to a garage / mechanic that let a car leave their garage if they knew the tyres were defective? I'm assuming defective also includes tread below the legal limit.

    ECO mode

    Magic Smoke on youtube has done some interesting stuff with ctek chargers. One of his comments is along the line of "it should be covered in gold for the price" :)

    Internal Dashcam Option?

    It permanent. The videos from Nick O'Leary post above mention it and the Mercedes Me lists it as permanent.

    New to Mercedes Benz - I have a few questions...

    1. No, the dipped mirror on reversing is only for the left hand mirror. 2. I think your describing the palm / hand rest when using the touch pad. No other function apart from resting you palm on it. 4. No, not that I've noticed. I get a notification on Mercedes Me and I can use that to lock it...

    Collecting SL350 next week

    Does it have "Don't Panic" on it somewhere, in nice friendly letters? Maybe a spare towel in the glove box :) * Seriously, looks absolutely gorgeous. *(Above comment based on the OP's username)

    Unbelievable !!!

    Unfortunately not. My brother in law has a 2009 VW Golf diesel or some sort, he's about to get it back on the road after not driving it for 18 months (it's SRON'd) and was going to drive down to London to see family. I asked him if it was ULEZ compliant and he thought I making some sort of...

    DASHCAM DISABLED ON NEW model CLA

    The dashcam option has popped up in the Mercedes Me store. £200 permanent activation. Needs a bit of thought at that price.

    80 on motorway

    Just thought this may be of interest. It's dated August 30th 2020 What is the "10%+2" rule and what does it mean? - Road Law Barristers And this one from September 2020. Speeding fines - how much you have to pay | RAC Drive Both respectable sites. Interestingly, the first site has this paragraph -

    Mercades becoming more mainstream and less exclusive

    I bought a CLA in Jan, traded a 2 year old C class in (C200). It's got the 1.3 Renault engine in it, and I knew it did when I bought it. I took a small loan from the bank (mental interest rates from the dealer, almost 3 times a much as the bank!!). I'm quite happy with the performance for the...

    80 on motorway

    Got caught @ 82 on the A34 in Jan / Feb. Really stupid of me as rarely put my foot down to that extent, but I'd got frustrated by the plonker in front of me that was doing a yo-yo as we joined onto the A34 so wanted to get passed. Oh well, 2nd time in 30+ years (the other was in 1992, really...

    Speed limit and tail-gating

    Really hate the yo-yo speed as well. If they want to do 50 on 50 road, that's fine, I'll have to put up with it, the speed limit is just that, not a target. But WHY drop down to 45, then up to 55 the 50 for a bit then almost 60. Up and down, up and down!

    SUV Explosion

    My wife has a blue badge, uses a walking stick and has done for 15 years or so (she's only in her mid 50's :( ). Shes got a GLA (on her 2nd one in 4 year), because she can step in and out of it rather than sitting down and standing up as you do in a "normal" car. She does not like being in my...
