Prefacelift 58 plate PP. 2 previous owners. 79k. Fsh by main dealer up till 3 services ago, I then switched to indy. It’s pretty much fully loaded as far as the pre facelift goes with rear side blinds & electric rear blind, as well as LSD. In the 5+ years of owning the car it’s been a weekend...

I’ve ordered a carbon spoiler from China. Thought I’d take a chance cos I liked the look of it. How do I pay import duty on it when it eventually hits the uk? Do they let u know somehow??

Quick one. I know nothing about computers. The wife has mentioned she would like a Mac book air to use for her work. Is buying one used a bad idea? I’ve seen 2015 ones advertised.

Long story short I’ve changed my work van to something a bit smaller and hopefully more economical. I had a all singing all dancing stereo in my big van with Bluetooth etc. Not sure if I want to go the route of changing the standard double din stereo in the small van so been looking at the...

I’m a builder and I’ve had a vivaro/trafic/primastar van for years. I previously owned the 1.9 around 4 years ago which pretty much at first cost £20 a day to run from home to london. Basically 25 miles each way. I done a service on it with a new fuel filter and it pretty much cut the daily...

Terrifying moment kids flee in fear as van rams into car several times I got sent this video by a friend and had to google it as I wanted to find out why the van driver did what he did. The article still doesn’t explain why only the fact it was road rage. Keep hearing people shouting ram him...

Is it just the area I live or is it wide spread? Closest to me is around 10 miles away now and that’s Tesco. There used to be a shell around 5 miles but that’s now changed hands to a different fuel company. The nearest station to me has stopped doing super unleaded all together. Is it just...

Fitted coilovers to the c63 a few months ago ( not used daily ) the drop links that came with the kit was pants and I had slight knocking while going slow over minor bumps so rang a supplier for correct length links ( they are half the length of standard ) and was quoted £70+ for 2 new ones but...

Long story short. Father in law has just brought a truck and the last three letters is the name of our company. How do you go about purchasing a plate from a vehicle if it’s the original plate? Suppose it’s not like taking a private plate off a car because that way it’s the original plate that...

Got quoted £350 + for this by the indy I use. Mines a pre facelift with converter 7 speed. What prices have you guys had? It’s not a job I want to leave but at the same time I’ve read prices vary a lot.

Cut a long story short I took my c63 somewhere for 4 wheel alignment a few weeks ago and they couldn’t carry out the process because they reckon the inner bolts was seized up in the bushes. My cats not a daily drive but it does need new rear tyres badly. My dilemma is. Is it worth the hassle of...

I’m not a gadget freak at all when it comes to tv’s and home stereo’s etc. But after 15 years my old tv has been replaced with a nice new one. Not because it bit the dust just because we’ve re vamped the front room and fancied a smart tv. I would now like to get a surround sound system but I...

Need 4 wheel alignment and herd a lot of good reports concerning wheels in motion. Problem is there seems to be more than one. The one I’m thinking of using is the one in st Neots. Are they a chain? And is the one at St Neots any good?

Bit gutted to say the least. Recently put coilovers on the c63 so was in need for a 4 wheel alignment anyway. Also my conti’s on the rear have pretty much bit the dust. The cars not a daily drive and to be honest I don’t get time to drive it even if I wanted to.But the wife had booked a long...

As I’m due for two new rears on my c63 I’ve been having a brows on the net for a change due to the fact the conti’s I had on have lasted half the mileage as the previous make I had. I’m not one for putting a budget tyre on a car like this so I tend to look at well known brands and steer clear of...

I replaced the esl on my c63 a few weeks ago. To do so I obviously disconnected the battery. All in all including waiting for the new motor to come in the post what I’d ordered previously it was disconnected for a few days. One thing I noticed when I connected it all up again when finished was...

Been self employed all my working life. Last few years I’ve had to pay a payment in jan for obviously the last years tax but I now have to pay a payment in advance for next year at end of July. None of the other self employed fellas I work around have herd of this. Why is this?

Noticed today my rear tyres was getting low ( c63 ) conti’s all round. I have a nearly brand new Dunlop sport maxx in the garage from when I had to get one as an emergency cos I got a blow out and couldn’t get conti’s. Dilemma is to save some dosh and buy one sport maxx so I’m running conti’s...

Searched and search but can’t find a definite answer. So if you have a esl and lucky enough for it to be in the unlocked position before trying to remove and replace the motor do you still have to take steering wheel off and column etc or can you access it from underneath?

This is just a heads up for those who are toying with the idea of putting there car on coilovers. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I like the look of a c63 lowered so I purchased a BC racing kit for my pre facelift PP. I know there’s a few members on here that have coilovers on there...
