    w123 300d as a daily

    Hi gang I have come across a W123 300d (non turbo). One owner. Low, low mileage. As I now only do 50 or so miles a week pottering to the shops at no more than 60mph, why should I not buy it to use as a daily? Would the noise be too dreadful? Not worried about performance but would not want...

    R129s

    So I've had a couple of sl500s. I didn't quite gel with them. Not especially fast, not exhaustive specially comfy, and always felt too nose heavy to hustle. Anyone able to tell me what a 320 is like in comparison? As they are not fast cars anyway I wonder if I'd notice less oomph, it'd...

    [SOLD] bluetooth modules

    I have 2 bluetooth modules that I've used in various e class and s class over the years. I see they do not share the same part number which might be why one of them wouldn't work when I swapped cars. Anyway one of them is definitely working and the other might or might not. Dont really want...

    w222 s class headlights

    I am looking to take my W222 to France and register it there. It has ILS so I can set the beams to flat for driving in Europe. Does anyone know if this is likely to pass/get me a carte grise or do you think I will need to change headlights (in which case I think I'll sell it before I go!)

    W222 owners

    Please may I ask w222 owners what I can expect mpg-wise from a 500 vs 350d on a 500 mile autoroute run. I'm not talking a blat across Europe but a 130 kmh cruise on cruise control all the way. I do so hate diesel, I am sure if it has to be diesel the w222 will hide it admirably but I am so...

    W211 dynamic seats

    I missed my old E55 so we have another but an estate this time. Very low miles at 35,000 but the extending cushions of the dynamic seats do not extend. Now I am blessed that after 15 years the pneumatics all seem to work OK, they pinch when cornering, all the lumbar works fine (for now), just...

    new E class Ventilated Seats

    Just found myself looking at the new E class and I can't see ventilated seats available. Seems to be a button blank for it but I don't see it on the price lists? MBUK decided we're not allowed it? My favourite extra, pity if they've ditched it.

    Amg private lounge cap

    I asked the private lounge for one of their limited edition caps to give to SWMBO. It's a bit masculine for her with the faux carbon fibre effect etc so offering here for £25 incl Hermes delivery. Brand spanking new, unworn, not even tried on.

    company credit checks

    I subscribe to Creditsafe who give me unlimited searches, credit score etc etc. I get updates to monitored companies when anything changes (be that credit score, new accounts, CCJs etc etc) with Creditsafe and that is important to me and I think precludes the use of one-off search packages...

    advice sought for air compressor

    Hi - can anyone give me some pointers on what to look for when I buy an air compressor. It is to run a small piece of machinery that requires a 30 litre/minute supply. It will be used inside so needs to be quiet and electric I guess. Anything I should look for? Just go to machine mart...

    warehouse floor paint

    I am painting my power floated concrete warehouse floor with a single pack paint (fairly light use - only pallet truck and pedestrians). I plan to use a PU paint. Should I use an adhesion promoter first to 'key' the surface or would a PU paint 2 coats suffice? I have been given advice by a...
