Result of the SLK200 back end wiggle Hi everyone After insisting to my Insurance company that I wanted my car to go to Mercedes to have a 4 wheel alignment check etc - I now have a result - no wiggle and feels safe to drive. It appears the garage who did the repairs set all the...

Update on Mercedes SLK - wiggle - JIG check Hi everyone Thanks for the comments from you all and it's certainly made me more aware of tyre quality etc. Today I telephoned the Mercedes dealer who does my service/MOT etc and they said I should definately call my Insurance company back and...

Hi, I've just been outside and this is what is says on my tyres. Back are: Infinity 225/50R16 96W One of the front are: Infinity 205/55R16 94W INF-05 Other front is: Hifly 205/55R16 94W I think it's a good idea to ring the garage and gain assurance that they definately did a 4 wheel...

Hi I would appreciate a little advice from the experience of other SLK drivers please. About 6 months ago I had economy tyres fitted to the back of my SLK - I've only just realised by chatting to others how important tyres are...I just thought as long as they were legal and the right size they...

It's blasted 'drizzle' outside - I just HATE drizzle - what a waste of space - either rain or don't - no half measures. And here was me wanting to zooooom around in SLK that I picked up earlier in the week. Went to town at 8.30am this morning with roof down - torrential rain by the time I...

Ow wow Roadie, what you having then. I collected my new (well, new to me) car on Monday and I'm still on cloud 9..... It's so cloudy here today but not raining - that's all I need to get the top down. I put the heated seats on, airscarf on, cd's up loud, foot on the pedal...pure...

mm....I think the luxury has done it...hubby has a Jag and I'm always going on about the heated seats and how smooth it is even when I'm tanking over a bumpy road.....you just bounce in the seat...when in the Boxster, your teeth nearly fall out. The Boxster certainly had the adrenalin rush...

Have you thought about a Boxster I only say this because when I purchased my Boxster, I'd also had the test drive in the S2000. When I went into the showroom of a local dealer who sold these sort of cars - they were both together and for looks - I could hardly choose. Then I went for the...
