My father passed away a couple of months ago and I will be selling his car, a 1998 R reg Merc C240 Elegance in white. It is currently SORN'd as the MOT has just expired (which I do intend to get renewed) and has under 60k on the clock, and is in generally very good condition but I have no idea...

Unfortunately my E220 had an altercation with a Pheasant on the A303 last Sunday. This lead to one dead bird, lots of feathers, some "crushed" fins on the rad and a severely damaged grill! I have patched it together using copious amounts of superglue so it looks halfway decent and will provide...

I have seen a load of threads here for boot lids that won't open; well, I got up this morning, looked out the window and saw the boot lid on my 2008 W211 was wide open! Fortunately nought missing, and when I closed it the indicators flashed 3 times to confirm the car was locked and secure. It...

This lunchtime I bought a 500Gb Western Digital "My Book" USB2 external HDD from Tesco (Aldershot) for £10.00..yes £10.00 (TEN). Would normally expect to pay around to £50.00 for one of these.

How do I find out what needs to be done on a C service (2nd service for the vehicle)? It's going in on Monday and would like to know what to expect (:) or :( or :eek:). I remember reading somewhere about how to do it, but for the life of me can't find it now...it's going into Purslow's in...

Last night I went to top up my Diesel E220 (08 W211) and the pump kept shutting off due to the fule blowing back. left it a couple of secs to try again and I could hear the fuel gurgling back down the filler. I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago at the same garage (different pump). Topped...

Hello all, I have read a few threads refering to the use of independent MB specialists for servicing and ensuring the service book is stamped (as I used to for the Omega I had before my latest purchase). Problem is my car, 2008 E220 does not have a "stamped" book, but has the services logged...
