Sorry about the overuse of etc...etc!!!

Just buying a Saab 9-3 Aero(oops sorry...) and have been told by the dealer and a number of hi-fi shops that the stereo and speakers cannot be upgraded as they dare not touch the car as it has multiplex wiring. Has anyone else heard of this, what is the sketch re multiplex wiring etc. etc...

Having once again become the proud owner of my C43........... the blasted gearbox is playing up again. It was replaced only a few months ago and has been into MB on numerous occasions. It still does not change and hold gears properly. I have had enough, but cannot sell the car until the...

If you are using a broker, NU give you free RAC cover abroad. However for £45 extra you can get RAC in this country inc homestart. V Good value and having used it a few times myself good service. Price seems good.

I was overtakien today on the A3 today by a new Mercedes E class doing over 100 in the rain, when just about 60 would have been safe? Have MB created a new option making their cars impervious to bad weather?

A good friend of mine is the sales manager of an official Mercedes dealership. He is of the opinion that the cars are not as well built and have loads of electrical problems. The newer the car, the more problems. He thought the www.ihatemymercedes.co.uk(?) site was accurate. Dealers are...

9.00am!

Well I am 6 4 and my dad is bigger than your dad!:)

All in all, I think I got off lucky with my spat on this forum! How big is Andy K!;)

Don't worry, you did not miss much.

Thinking of putting NOS in one of my cars. Has anyone tried it and if so was it the reliable, cheapish performance upgrade it is portrayed as being (assuming you don't use it loads and try for too much bhp)? PS: I watched to Too fast...too furious and it was poo and I am 36 so this is not a...

Glideman....I could not agree more! That guy could not have got a better reaction (7+ pages of replies...) if he tried.....unless of course he took a CL55 down to Spain at an average speed of 99mph..............older members will get my drift! My thoughts are each to their own and good...

Hello, just got back from a meeting and in addition to the £99, we can hire a Caterham(Not Julians) for £500 for the day. Basic maths says that the more people interested, the cheaper it is. Please if you are interested CP me as I would like to get track day on 8th Nov sorted with or...

I am going on a trackday in Cambridge on 8th Nov. Cost is £99, but sadly no bikes allowed. Is anyone interested? 12 places available.

I had a C43, which I sold last month along with my S-Class Merc. I have to say that I was very disappointed with both cars. The S-Class suffered numerous electrical problems and I never trusted it, although it never broke down. The C43 broke down with a locked and destroyed...

GTG's are good. This was an additional thing.

Just got back from the Goodwood trackday that Steve Perry won and a fantastic day was had by all, except the Ferrari driver that got the hump, but I will come to that later..... Steve, after thrashing me at Grand Turismo last night and proving that he must get out more by showing myself, wife...

I hate to say it but I am wrong. The nose is not a frivolous styling feature. Most people know that one of the rules for an upmarket car is that it must be able to carry a set of golf clubs. Mercedes (being radical), are trying to appeal to the younger generation by allowing all their cars to...

This can't be the MB forum, I have cried with laughter twice now this evening! Spot on re surfboard, perhaps they will start appearing around Newquay soon! You know something, I am going to get one of them and strap it to the front of the Aston....how chic and...... well Tate Modern.

Sad thought the other day....wouldn't it be great if you could buy a chip to personalise the SatNav voice in your car. For example you are a Rally enthusiast and the computer wants you to turn right in 100 yds: Standard response: Please take the first exit 100 yards ahead on right...
