    Have the iphone4 currently which works well with my E-class cradle, and not interested in the 4s for the moment particularly as it may NOT work with the cradle. Does anyone have experience of using the iphone 4 cradle with IOS 5? Don't want to upgrad the os until I'm sure it will work...

    Insurance Company Recommendations?

    I always search through moneysupermarket to find the best deals. Insurance companies seem to work in weird and mysterious ways. Basically, when they see their business going down they reduce their prices for a time until their levels of business go back up. Therefore, it's difficult to say...

    New car, C or E?

    If funds allow, I would strongly recommend the current 250cdi with 7 g tronic plus auto. It's so much better than the 2005 model E. The fuel economy is excellent for such a large car and the tax disc only costs £115 per year as the CO2 output is also very low.

    Mobb, could you tell us who is your insurer? This would be useful info for us when considering renewing our insurance.

    New car, C or E?

    I too have owned both the C Elegance and my current E Avantgarde. Both are great. It's probably psychological, but I always felt that I could "nip" around in the C. Whereas with the E, I feel like driving in a more "refined" way. Is that mad? (Please no responses to this question.:crazy:)...

    Anyone own the new E250 cdi with the 7g-Tronic Plus 'box?

    Sorry, Killban, forgot to mention that these specs are versus the manual. As to whether you opt for the Sport or Avantgarde depends on your needs/wishes.

    Anyone own the new E250 cdi with the 7g-Tronic Plus 'box?

    Sorry *** but my E class 250CDI avantgarde has the paddle shifters as well though I have not used them yet! I will get around to playing with them one day. According to my spec sheet the "plus" auto box actually returns slightly better mpgs and it is also slightly quicker by 0.01sec from 0-62...

    CLC is Axed

    I drove a brand new CLC for a couple of weeks while waiting for my new E class. It was the most uncomfortable car, ever. Both difficult to get in and out with hard seats, and the ride was equally uncomfortable and harsh. These are all qualities that do not attract people who typically buy a...

    My shark fin has the GSM, GPS, and DAB antennas which came with the same options in the car. You can upgrade your shark fin by contacting Comand UK should you wish to add extras later on.

    Anyone own the new E250 cdi with the 7g-Tronic Plus 'box?

    Wow chappo123..That is excellent mileage. I have a month old 250CDI with the "plus" auto box and only get around 55mpg. Interestingly, as I was running in the engine, I was achieving just under 58mpg. Now that I am driving "normally", I don't get as good a result. Just shows that if you...

    Advice again please

    I have friends who regularly go away for months at a time to Australia, South of France etc, and leave it on a charger. CTEK is a great charger that monitors the state of the battery for however long. Also, another friend goes to Turkey regularly for a couple of months and never has a problem...

    E Class - too big?

    The new 2011 E250cdi has the new 7g-tronic plus box. It is excellent. Have driven both the 5 speed auto and the curent 7g tronic, and this box is much better in smoothness; miles per gallon etc. However, it is a new auto box. So, don't know if it will be reliable.

    good buy or goodbye

    Well, it will always be horses for courses whatever car you get. I might agree that the CLC is reliable, practical, reasonable equipment and value for money, but COMFORTABLE? I had a new CLC for two weeks while waiting for my E class, and it was the most uncomfortable car ever. Mind you, I am...

    Pics of my new interior!

    Looks great! Like you, I much prefer contrasting colours for the interior. This is even better emphasized by the piping in black. Nice....Why some people choose to have a single colour especially black throughout...I don't understand. But each to his/her own!:) Great job...
