On the M56 this morning at 0830 I passed a red 190 with a brabus badge on the bootlid, license plate ended in TMZ I think. A forum member? Anyone know this car? Looked tidy :)

Just some bits off my old '99 W202 sport. All were working perfectly prior to removal. Pics were taken with my phone and aren't great, I can take better pics if neccessary. I am willing to knock off a few quid for any packages of parts :) . As usual all comms via forum PM function. First...

A colleague and fellow forum member (RichAJ) pointed out that a lot of Shell forecourts are offering 5p/litre discount on Shell VPower today, more info here: Treat your car this Valentine's Day | United Kingdom Tanked mine up earlier :D

I am very pleased to introduce you to Araminta, born this morning at 05:54 weighing 4 pounds 7 ounces. Although she's six weeks premature she's doing well as is Julia :D Couldn't be happier right now :D

It's now been just over a year since I bought my CLK55 so I thought I'd sum up all the numbers! If you are considering owning a V8 these details might help you work out what the costs will be like. Fuel (totals and averages where appropriate) Litres PPL Total Distance 3506.78 135.7 4786.13...

Just removed the incorrectly placed AMG badge from the bootlid of my car and now I know why it was in the wrong place! :rolleyes: Nice little hole and a rust bubble! :( Looks like my proposed trip to the bodyshop will be sooner than I was hoping.

Many thanks to Khz (thread: http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/classifieds-general-sale/102213-error-free-white-led-w5w-sidelights-various-mb-models.html) Just fitted! They look great and no warnings on the dash! Can post some more pics if needed.

For sale here is the black leather interior (code 201) from my facelift W202 saloon including front seats, rear seat bench and back, rear head restraints and door cards from the front and rear doors. The car has done just over 200k but 99% of that time there was only a driver in the car. The...

My pride and joy was damaged in a mishap on the motorway two weeks ago and due to low valuation of the car as a whole it is with some sadness that I have decided to break it for parts and spares. It is a 1998 W202 C230 Kompressor "sport" saloon with auto transmission. VIN is...

This morning at 06:45 I hit some water on the M61 southbound which spun the car around, bounced off the central reservation barrier and I ended up pointing the right way on the hard shoulder. At some point the front nearside wheel exploded which may or may not have contributed. All I saw was a...

That's two I've lost in the last year! *sigh* It's only been on there a couple of months, I usually have the flat ornament in place. They've taken some paint off too :mad: The flat one will be back in place this evening, I don't think they provide as much amusement for the scrotes.

Back in June I overtook a Honda down a 50 mph section of the A6 heading south and no sooner had I passed him the revs died and speed wound down to zero. I pulled over, waited for the traffic to pass me and then set off again, seemed fine. Pulled onto the M6 to go south and it hesitated again...

As found on another thread here is a link to the ESS (Electronic Service Sheet) that MB stealerships use to build a service schedule for your car. Mercedes-Benz ESS

One of my tail lamps is now in need of urgent replacement so I'm once again looking at LED rear lamps as an alternative to OEM. Most look awful so I'm wondering if anyone has seen any passable or even vaguely OEM-looking LED rear lamps. Not heavily smoked, not colourless/clear/chrome etc...

My windscreen developed a huge crack last week and was promptly replaced by Autoglass. As it's a mod I'm interested in I asked for a windscreen with the clip and gap in the shade area for a rain sensor. I believe I have three items to purchase: the sensor, a small wiring loom and a cover for...

I've seen quite a few newish cars with a small green sticker on the bootlid with a white "e" on it. This isn't just on one brand or model I saw it on both a couple of Vauxhalls (corsa) and a VW (golf) yesterday. It's not always perfectly aligned so it might be retrofitted (by dealer or owner)...

I had a job interview on Monday for a job I was quite excited about. The role is what I like to do, the location is great and the company looks pretty good, not to mention the salary and the other perks! Obviously I was dressed well and on my best behaviour! My interview feedback came back...

I saw this parked around the corner from my house, thought it looked hilarious! :) Anyone care to guess what it actually is underneath the kit? :)

I saw this film earlier tonight, it was exactly what I expected it to be and it wasn't exactly amazing but it did have a few good moments. Forget Nicolas Cage, Ed Harris and the other actors, the star of the show was a silver W204 C280 sport! It was chased through London by a black...

Another for Ian @ 124works! Car failed it's MOT last week for an exhaust hanger and some corrosion to a brake pipe. Not failures but warnings included a broken horn, poly-v-belts cracked, brake fluid black and brake pads worn. Quote for work from MB Manchester was £904.16 for just the...
