I have this one for sale: Silencing Material, engine bay, Front Mercedes A-Class from HS - 160481 Bought it a while ago, never got around fitting it, now not required, and it's impractical to return to Germany, so here it is. £15 collected from Northampton or £20 posted.

Two minor and and major mods completed today :bannana: with a help from a fellow member and a perfect gentleman. Well, with the major mod I just looked over his shoulder and kept silly questions coming. So here goes: Windows comfort closure - all four up/down on lock/unlock second press on...

Passed the MOT today with flying colours :bannana: No advisories, perfect emission readings, complimented on professionally painted callipers and drums (cheers Clive!) Big thanks to Olly and the team, Howard (love the exhaust) and CKLclive :thumb: lovely-jubley :D

I'll have to leave my car (A160 W168) for just over 10 weeks, and while I can arrange for someone to run the engine for 10min while stationary, say once or twice a week, no one will be driving it. Now the question is: what would be the best way to deal with the situation: 1. Have the engine...

A bit of unusual query this one: I've searched everywhere and cannot find any mini-B USB flash drives. All that comes up in any search are small size standard USB drives, which is not what I'm looking for. Just to make it clear: I want to utilise the available mini-USB port on my DVD head...

Looking for a B-class rear wiper arm. Would prefer a new one.

Just spent a few nice days in Paris, remarkable number of Smarts and A-classes about town. As always, terrifying to cross a street, as cars manoeuvre around people on a zebra crossing. Witnessed a few famous "French-style" parallel parkings, quite fascinating :crazy: Really wanted to stick...

On my way from Olly today I watched the odometer as it went from 99999 to 100000 :bannana: Pretty sure the car is in better shape than it was for a very long time, if not ever :thumb:

For sale: Apple TV, model A1378, part number MC572LL/A Black, same as the latest model, apart from only supporting 720p HD TV (most HD films and shows on iTunes are 720p anyway). Boxed, with all the paperwork, remote and cables (HDMI and power) Interface: HDMI 802.11n Wi-Fi (b/g...

New, still sealed W168 front anti-roll bar links by Febi. Made in Germany. MB part number: A168 3201189 Febi part number: 19332 Bought at the same time as OE ones, so used those. I have no space to keep spare parts, I'm afraid. Free if collected, otherwise postage at cost. Can take...

For sale: Crucial 256GB C300 realSSD - remarkably reliable, fast and exceptionally well built, runs cool too. Bought new direct from Crucial just under 2yrs ago. Crucial part number CTFDDAC256MAG-1G1. Arguably the best SSD of the time and still regarded as one of the best. I wish I can get...

As far as traffic related weirdness goes, today has to be at the very top! :crazy: Left home at 6:15am this morning to get the car to Clive for a little bit of paint splashing :rolleyes: Programmed the route into satnav a few days ago, usual stuff... Whether flood warnings or some cosmic...

I have a CLASSIC sign badge (cheers to a member who sent me a wrong side covering with CLASSIC sign instead of Avantgarde, and then ignored my emails). I have now bought the correct sign from MB, hence this one is for sale @ £3 incl. postage :thumb: New, as in never been on a car...

I have for sale an OE A-Class W168 Avantgarde Front Grille. Removed from my A160 Avantgarde, in good condition, includes top chrome strip and the front star. Collection preferred from Northampton, can take it to Olly's GTG ... Alternatively, buyer can arrange their own courier collection or...

We booked a weekend away in Five Arrows Hotel on Rothschild's Waddesdon estate... Thoroughly enjoyed the time, beautiful garden suite with antique furniture, fine food and good service, brought back a couple of cases of a very nice wine ... Great stuff - a proper 'get away from it all' weekend...

This will probably start another OS bashing match, but nevertheless, it might help someone, so here goes: There are, apparently, a rather large number of Macs infected with Flashback Trojan, so worth checking out if yours is alright. Yes, unlike Windows, OSX as any other -nix OS is not...

Must be the most annoying vehicle ever! Not only it has been parked illegally for over two hours now (where's the bl00dy traffic warden?), the noise is horrendous, it's blocking an entrance to the building across the street from me, but the driver also managed to reverse into a parked Seat...

Can the W168 A210 exhaust (back box) be fitted to my A160 Avantgarde? The part number is A1684906221 and I'm trying to get it through Inchcape (well, they got my money and went out to look for the thing)... Was going to ship it direct to Olly at PCS in time for my forthcoming trip there, but...

I have an almost complete A-class W168 silver O/S door mirror. I have cannibalised a surrounding frame, which was cracked on mine, and am keeping the glass just in case, but the rest of the unit is intact. It's the electrically adjustable and heated one, but not a powerfold. I'm going to...

Would it be possible to retrofit a W169 (or similar) steering wheel into my facelift W168? I want to be able to utilise head unit controls on the steering wheel :cool: If it is at all possible, how much would it cost?
