    One year, two days, and 20,000 miles in the CL55

    Last Sunday saw the end of my first year of CL ownership and the (rather alarming) realisation that I'd done 20,000 miles and put £5k of fuel through it. The miles were probably split 60:40 between motorways and fast A and B roads, with my average speed showing as 48mph, with a shade over...

    1600MHz DDR3 RAM

    I have 3x 2GB sticks of Corsair XMS3 rated at 1600MHz at 9-9-9-24 timings at 1.65V, but they will do 1333MHz 8-8-8-24 at 1.5V as demanded by more modern chipsets. The product number is: CMX6GX3M3A1600C9 I brought these in 2011 but never installed them as they were a duplicated order I never...

    Blue with chestnut S55

    Mercedes S55 AMG Saloon 2001 VGC For Sale on Car And Classic UK [C569192] Interesting choices. While I really like the chestnut wood in the CL I'm not sure it works so well in the S with the horizontal stripe of it.

    Trying to figure out my audio setup

    Had a quiet afternoon yesterday so reorganised all the old car receipts with a view to figuring out exactly what the previous owner had had done audio wise. Presuming a standard W215 Bose setup as the starting point, I have receipts for the following: 19th April 2012 from the boys at Comand...

    Wales Rally GB - worth going?

    Was wondering if anyone on here had experience of spectating Rally GB, and whether they considered it a worthwhile experience, and specifically how much you can feasibly see? I'm personally keen to go - both to watch what is probably my favourite motorsport, and also it would be a good chance...

    East India Club Classic Car Weekend

    Last weekend I spent a very enjoyable few days with the classic car section of the East India, and thought I'd give it a brief write up and, more importantly, share a few pictures. This was the first such event at the Club, previous years having seen only a brief meet in St James's Square...

    Big Thumbs Up to Eurocharged

    Had a bit of work done by the guys at Eurocharged last week, namely a Quaife LSD as part of the group buy, plus their Stage 1 package of heat exchanger, pump, pully and map. The CL is now noticeably quicker but more importantly far smoother and more fluid both when pootling and pressing on. I...

    Eurocharged 55 Pricing Query

    Would assume the Stage 3 Package to be more expensive than the Stage 2 given what's involved, so is this a listing error on the website, or a genuine bargain?

    CL55 from the South Coast

    Hello all, Since March I have been the proud owner of a '55-plate CL55 AMG Kompressor, and have been meaning to get on here for a while! The car itself is the classic silver with black leather combo, which I always said I'd avoid but actually looks really smart. Not a massively optioned...
