cheers jay - sorry to go off on one on the phone - got me in a real tizzy. I am really pleased with the motor - never missed a beat - but getting a phone connected is nothing but hassle. I've got a bloke over in Hinckley would will fit a parrot and any lead needed for £280 - that's worst case...

hi guys , bought an e500 w211 about 8-9 months ago from an independent merc specialist in Nuneaton , Mercland . It was advertised with the Bose audio system which to me was a real bonus. As I understand it this was an amplifier all hidden away in the left hand side of the boot . I have recently...
