1993 Mercedes 180 Esprit. Taxed and MOT until June 2010. £150 SPARES or REPAIR. The car is in good condition, but has a fault with the fuel pump or fuel filter. The car was one of the first in the country and was used as a demonstrator, hence the colour, light yellow. It does have a lot...

Am trying to do the above without removing the discs. Does anybody know, using the 'clock face' , at which time approx., the adjustment screw is.

Am having problems starting my 1993 c180. Basically, all the dash lights illuminate as if it is going to start but when the key is fully turned, nothing happens at all. Thought of the immobiliser, or ECU etc. However a high pitched electrical squeal came from a part situated after the air intake...

Apologies for not contributing for some time, but the family has been through a rough spell. Anyway, am after swapping/p/xing my 1993 c180 in light yellow. It has a whole host of factory fitted extras as it was one of the first ones made and was used as a demonstrator for that model. Am after a...

My ignition barrel recently siezed and had to be smashed by the AA to get my car towed home. Long story really. How much of a job is it to have it all replaced, and most of all, how much?:mad:

Just put my VIN in, and it says the vehicle was bought by dealer 537 in GB. Any idea how you can find out where/who that was?:crazy:

Hi folks, Any of my buddies in the NW got a trailer I could borrow or hire for the week coming. Have been forced into going camping, and the c180 aint really cut out for carrying tents, stoves,sleeping bags etc. Your help would be very much appreciated.:)

Whilst my 1993 w202 was in for MOT today, the radiator apparently exploded during the emmision test. Not amused. 1. Is this a common problem. 2. What could cause such a thing to happen. 3. Who should pay for the repair....been quoted £139 supplied and fitted by the MOT station, who feel a bit...

Just picked something up from another post....TVR or....And it reminded me that when I had a MG, other MG owners used to flash their headlights at each other. Do any MB owners do it. I must admit, that I have been tempted to flash at other C class owners,my headlights that is, but some MB owners...

Just jet washed car prior to NW 1st GTG. Now external temp guage is showing + 0.00c . It's about 30c by ours, so what have I done to it. Will it dry out and revert back to normal, or have I broken it. I believe it is on the front left of the front spoiler.

Am sure I have seen a HOWTO post, but can't find it. I thought it would be similar to the facelift model, but it's not. Anyone care to assist. Many thanks. My leccy window has stopped working.:mad:

:D My new, but sadly temporary neighbour is a German air conditioning installer. He owns the company apparently and is installing A/C at the Ford plant in Halewood. In a garbled conversation last night, he speaks little English, he mentioned that he owns a Mercedes 500 SCE. He also has a BMW and...

Anyone fancy a trip to Aberystwyth in the morning. A483 through Wrexham, Oswestry. Leaving Cheshire at 8 ish. Need to be in Aber for 11. Lovely drive to the coast. :bannana: See how good you guys are on country roads!!!!!!!!!!

A friend of mine has been downloading some great tunes from Blubster. He told me it was a free download site or something. Am not sure if he will get into trouble, so I told him to stop it anyway. :o

:o I am the bearer of bad news. Sophie Ellis Bexter has been found dead in a French apartment. Police are convinced she was head-butted to death. They are saying it's Murder on Zidane's Floor. :bannana: I'll get my coat.

Advice please. Just bid on what I thought were two identical rear light clusters for my w202 C180. However, one is lightly smoked and the other is heavily smoked:crazy: . I have only bid £5.00 do you think I will be outbid, as I dont want two different lights . Der !!!!:(

Folllowing on from some of my more interesting posts, or should I say 'those that caused controversy' (for which I normally offer an apology), I have come up with an interesting proposition. I own a very modest (IMHO) Mercedes. I am aware that some folk have even more modest ones, some of which...

To anyone I have upset recently, you may, or indeed may not , be pleased to hear that an over enthusiastic Aberystwyth traffic cop dosed me over the weekend with a £30 fine for having a non-prescribed number plate. This does not mean that it wasn't from a doctor/chemist but that one of the...

This only works with people who have to look at the keyboard to type, so won't work on secretaries!! Today I gently prised off the 'e' and the 't' on my mates keyboard. I then replaced them in the wrong order. Had hours of fun watching him banging away. He eventually phoned the IT dept and lost...
