    From Volvo T5 to My 1st Mercedes

    As a long time Ovlov fan, I was looking to replace my T5 S60, that's the 250bhp Turbo, with , well to be honest another. But, long story short I bought a 2004 CLK 200 Kompressor Avantgarde. I am well impressed :thumb:, its comfy,can lift its skirts to trot down the road, and has lots of buttons...

    1st Week in my C63 PPP

    So I thought I would start a tread about my new car. I have owned several BMWs(320i, 323i,330i,335d) before buying the C63 and Merc feels far more refined than the BMWs. I was afraid that buying the C63 would feel too close to the 335d but the C63 is twice the car. I know it is not like...

    1st Class Dealer Service...

    As some may have read I had my xenon headlamps replaced by the guys at Comand.co.uk. As they don't have the beam alignment kit they set the level safely low, so as not to dazzle. Today I popped into my dealership (MB Swindon, Sytner group) and enquired if they could adjust them for me. No...

    Hi. I've just bought my ml and already I've gearbox concerns. When pulling away quickly in 1st it seems to rev hard and then suddenly drop/thump into gear.
