    Halfords Trade Card

    So I was having a look at Hellfrauds prices for batteries today and a mate suggested that you can get "up to 80%" discount with their trade card. Some things like e.g. motor oil you do not get discounted at all, but filters and other service parts look very cheap indeed. Anybody got a trade...

    Horn Stopped Working

    (no double entendre intended :D ) My horn has started to sound like a Daihatsu's. One of them seems to be silent. Can anyone tell me where it's located, I ran out of places to look under the bonnet. Is it easily accessible? Thanks Karl

    Guess the Car

    On our recent trip we discovered this immaculate example of 60's engineering in Florence. It was parked outside a car repair shop :) Got another pic of the front which would give away the make. Anyone?

    Wanted: CD Storage Unit, Pre-facelift W210

    Anybody got one of these or know where to get hold of one? It's the unit that slots into the bottom shelf of the centre console. I've tried Ebay, no luck there so far. Main dealers don't stock this part any more either, so I guess second hand is the only option. Please PM me if you can...

    Death Rattle!!

    Battery Question

    I need to change my battery over the Holidays. I was wondering if disconnecting the old battery will reset all the electronics or cause any problems. If if does, would it be prudent to connect a second battery via jump leads under the bonnet while it's being changed to prevent a reset? The...
