    Introduction

    Hello, Im Dan. Just brought myself my first Merc clk 430 and i think I've made a mistake. Inside the car is in mint condition outside its in fair condition (usual rust spots). But mechanically is where it all goes wrong. Picked the car up from Maidstone and drove it to Ramsgate in what seemed...
