    Ferrari profits soar despite reducing car production numbers

    Surprised that sales of merchandise etc..is £7million.. That doesn't seem a lot worldwide....I know you have to sell some shirts, coats and watches etc. but with F1 I'd have thought this would be more...

    Features of the W204 I miss.

    Having had a full range of cars, and my wife having a poxy Audi, which must have one of the most un ergonomic interiors out there, I think the W204 is pretty good. The cruise is easy, the single stalk is fine, the park tronic is all that is required, having it behind for reversing is pretty...

    W205 C63 AMG Spyshots

    The other thing I love on my W204, is the ability to use the stereo keypad to dial numbers when in phone mode... It's dead handy, when you are out and about and the passenger can use it easy as well. My wife has an Audi and the dial and click for numbers is such a pain, she doesn't use it...

    W205 C63 AMG Spyshots

    Being a Mk1 w204 Sport Estate owner, the quality if the interior looks a real step change from mine. The shapes, materials look fantastic, it's just a real real shame that the screen doesn't retract.. I don't mind it when it's out, it's just the fact it looks so nickable!. Like the A class...

    How do you park yours?

    Luckily I have two toddlers, so mother and toddler for me everywhere I go with them, I drag them out all the time....!!!but if on my own I have a few other tactics. 1 to go on the top deck of a multi storey as far away from anyone, or even in those tights spaces that are sometimes above the...

    are mercedes buyers idiots?

    Agree with this, but the current A and CLA are very desirable machines in their own right... Wth a wider and younger audience....Nothing wrong with that. But as millions are sold, and they are on every street corner, is the man with the money, still going to want a top of the range E, S , CL...

    are mercedes buyers idiots?

    I think the biggest problem with all of this, is the potential dilution of the brand... Front wheel drive Renault engines, may appeal and increase market share and increase profits, but I do fear in the long run it may have an impact on the upper levels, in terms of desirability.

    I like that, would make a great euro camper conversion. Look good pulling an SLS to the track in matching colours!

    Has my C 63 been set up incorrectly?

    Wow, more like driving on the shoulder with that much tread left everywhere else... Get it checked, if it's new and under warranty, take it back to the dealer.

    Special convertible choices - quandry

    I read this a few weeks ago now! But managed to drive a 10 plate Gran Cabrio Sport on Thursday. I was mightily impressed, I don't think there are many things that looks as good, with either the top down or indeed the top up, the shape from the front corner back to the rear looks superb. I drove...

    W204 Paint flaking on door handles.

    Wow, that is shocking. Just been out to check mine, and they are all fine. I wondered if it might have had some stick on chrome covers before you had it and they were pulled off without any care and something that started small has just started to delaminates the paint over time. Especially with...

    Cls 250cdi sport

    If you like the colour go with it. What you could do if you really love it .........is when you give it back after 2 years, hunt it down at the dealer and buy it off them. There wont be many! If any about so should be easy, and probably get a good discount , as it's a niche colour...
