I have a nearside plastic lower door panel for a W124 Coupe or cabriolet. In reasonable condition only missing a couple of fixing clips. £20 if collected, could send at courier cost

Due to a rather unfortunate driver error the nearside door of the cabriolet has been dented. Damage is to the plastic moulding as well as the door panel itself. MB quote over 450 pounds for a door skin and 160 pounds for the plastic with chrome strip. I know I could buy a secondhand door for...

iIhave one fitted to our car and you are more than welcome to come and look

It is the gauge inside the car that reads the outside temperature, I was trying to differentiate between the sensor ( outside ) and the readout ( inside )

The inside temperature gauge stopped working and I was advised that it was very involved to replace the sender unit and internal unit There was no indication at all on the gauge, however it now reads 58 deg intermittently and I believe I read somewhere that this was more simple to fix. Any...

I have to repaint front bumpers Nautic Blue 929 but the side panels need painting. They appear to be light blue / grey but how do I find the colour code ? it does not appear on the info plate

How do you establish what the colour should be of these lower plastic panels, I need to paint mine which are a different colour to the main body and I cannot see any paint code

Exactly.. As I said drops on .. job done :)

I fit the top each winter by simply removing the two plastic covering plugs, drop ( not literally) the roof on and lock with sot top handles at the top of the windscreen. Heated rear window and integral lights then are connected automatically ( nothing to do) Lovely piece of kit but very heavy.

Thanks for info so far. Do these mercedes suffer with blown turbos and swirl flap issues similar to BMW? . Or are there any other common frailty issues? As I said originally my experience with the E320CDI was not good , electrical gremlins , sensors etc. BMW ( Yes I know they are not so...

Thanks for that . When did the face lift arrive and is there a best version to aim for ( Used to be elegance , avantgarde )

Thinking about this as a replacement for a 3 series BMW. I already own a W124 Cabriolet and used to be toattly Merc until an E320 CDI of 2004 vintage ( not a good experience) Have they got better and has build quality, reliability etc improved Comments please

i could go to a 320cdi but still worried about bad quality and noisy engines. My E320cdi was quite good but still nothing like a smooth 6 cylinder petrol, hence my thoughts to get away from an oil burner. The issues of early Mercs do worry me a bit , rust, electrical gremlins etc. My...

I have 320D BMW estate, excellent car does all it is supposed to do BUT sounds terrible. I need a replacement and I am thinking about a petrol C class. The questions are : Do the early 2000 cars suffer with the same build / reliability problems as the similar year E class. I had a 320CDi...

i have 452 on my 3 series BMW , wear rate is excellent and ride much improved over runflats. Could not get the size for the Merc so have just put on the 912 which is an all season tyre. Only done a couple of hundred miles but they are very good, quiet and good grip in the wet. Could be a...

the name on the tyre is not the answer to quality! tyres like Michelin pilotes for example did not end up with the alternative ' pileups' for no good reason. you should consider the use of the tyre summer , winter , all season , tread pattern , compound etc. There are some excellent sites...

lovely car , woul make a nice stablemate for my cabriloet. If only I could PX with my BM tourer ??????

Can always see mine in Hampshire:)
