    R129 side plastics remove / replace

    Procured some new (to me) side plastics for my 97 500. My wife has the car at work today, so haven't had a chance to look at how to remove the old ones yet. Any pointers to help with their removal without doing enormous damage to my car?

    K11 NGY - CL63 AMG driven by an idiot

    On the M1 last Saturday, don't think I've ever seen a car driven more aggressively or with less thought for anyone else on the road. Tailgating to within a few inches of the car in front, undertaking at every opportunity and not really getting anywhere in the process. Well done, 'KUNGY' -...

    R129 electric aerial issue

    Stuck halfway, won't park or extend fully. Still getting reception, though. Tried a bit of WD40 but no dice. I can hear it trying to work and it kind of wobbles, but still it stays. Very annoying. Any ideas?

    R129 front bumper question

    1995 320 bumper - is it the same as that on a 1997 500? If not, how different is it and will it fit?

    R129 500 foglight lens replacement

    Got new glass for my foglights, both of which cracked when used in below-zero temp at Christmas in the Lake District. Had a quick look yesterday and it doesn't look as straightforward as replacing the indicators. Anyone got any pointers?

    Lovely old 190

    Spotted in a dodgy car park in E17 this afternoon. Nice that it's being used.

    R129 500 power steering

    Noticed a bit of a moan from the power steering from time-to-time, with a slight bit of resistance through the wheel. I'm hoping it's just in need of a fluid top-up, so that's what I'm going to try first. Had a look on Inchcape's website and they list two P/S fluids for my car: A001989200312...

    I love a bargain

    Panoramic glass hardtop for the SL appeared on eBay late on Saturday. Right colour, inside and out. It's the one thing I miss about the Avantime, all that glass above my head creating a lovely atmosphere in the cabin. Dropped the seller a message asking him to call me on Sunday so I could go...

    Number plate attaching

    My wife bought me a plate for Christmas. Before I steam in with a chisel and claw hammer to remove the old ones, I have two questions: they appear just to be stuck on - do I just prise them off? And what's the best way to affix the new ones? I used sticky pads for the plates on my bus, but had...
