Hi All, I'm thinking of replacing the cloth covered seats, both front and back on my w203 c class with another seat as one is broken and the other one is a bit tatty - some questions though 1. Is this an amateur's job - ie plug and play or should I fork out to get a garage to fit it? 2...

What would you do if you saw this? On another note, I'm guessing this is decal or a wrap?

Hi all, just passed my MOT - and there was a comment that my brake pads were getting quite thin and I have heard some squealing as well or just paranoia, maybe... Anyway, the c200k is coming up to its A service and rather than the dealer calling me mid day to say.. 'the brake pads look a...

I was walking down the road in North London yesterday night, on my way to the tube after having some drinks with friends. A 'gangsta' bmw passes me and I sort of noticed that there were about 4 guys inside with a loud sound system - so far so good - this was an area where I used to live before...
