Hey everyone
I'm having my car resprayed by one of my customers for free,( well apart from paying for the paint) as long as he can use it on his ads which is fine by me.
The car is a 1992 with the 2 tone paint, white top and Matt bumpers and skirts.
Should I keep it to that colour combo...
Anyone know how it comes out? Some twist out anti-clockwise but this doesn't it would seem, the whole middle moves like it sort of could, but I can't find a way to remove anything without screwdriver time.
Someone has told me that there are only about 20 Estate versions of the E500 in the UK. (S211 E500) Can anyone confirm this?
I see that there are just under 500 E500's on www.howmanyleft.co.uk, but clearly by far the majority of these are saloons.
I'm being nagged to sell my 2004 E500...
I anyone mapped their CLS500? The engine I think at just over 300 BHP for a 5 litre is not stressed so could stand a little tinkering!? I feel an exhaust or just back boxes will help get the gasses through faster but what can be done without strapping on turbos etc to just pep up the...
Or perhaps "It never rains but it pours Pt II"...
The wretched thing has now sprung a leak! It is a very pleasant car to drive, but if ever a car needed a swift kick up the jacksie, this one does...
Engine runs fine; gearbox shifts fine; no sign of oil/bubbles/scum in the coolant; no sign...
Does not look a bad car for the money. Better pictures would help. Might be of interest to someone.

Hi Guys, looking for some advice if anyone could maybe help :) I'm looking at changing my suspension on my 2003 CLK 500, old shocks are no good no more and I would like to lower the car at the same time. But the question is what should I get? Do I go for Bilstein Coilover Kit or some Bilstein...
not sure if this is the right place to talk about this car..
anyway..
i spotted a 500 SEC 1989 in a garden doing nothing apart from going milky red..
so i knocked on the door and a lady said its not been used for 3 years and yes its for sale..
she was driving it for about 17 years as a daily...
Hi new to this forum and recently a new owner to my CLK 500, brought it when I was twenty years old but I'm twenty one now and just started using it again but needs work. But the greatest car own so far :)
Hopefully learn a lot on here and maybe meet a few members

The car popped a message up on the dash to add a litre of oil at my next fuel fill up. Duely added a litre of 0-40w today.
Surprised it took this long as it's had a fair amount of hard work so far.
Anyone get asked to add oil between services?
Hi,
I'm looking at buying an R107 that's based in Hampshire. I'm in Scotland. Can anyone recommend someone who could look the car over for me, specifically bulkheads and rot?
Thanks,

I am after opinions on what this can be. 1990 500SL R129. I did have some lumpy idle issues and have changed dizzy caps and rotors for Beru. I have cleaned all connections to Idle control valve and checked working OK . Have checked the connections and fuse on the voltage protection relay...
Hoping for help
i had my command wired in for iphone connectivity but it now transpires that it was draining my battery as it was wired through the TV tuner
The car audio dealer stated that no other option exists
Does anyone know if an alternative works as I do enjoy playing music via the...
So, my 500 is now in the body shop having the kit fitted and painted, it's having a full respray so I don't end up with new paint next to weathered paint, would most likely look a bit strange when finished.
I've read, and gone over , a couple of times now, Overdrive's build (another forum) I've...
So I've been searching for a while now before posting.
I have a 52 plate CLK 500 W209 and want to swap out the yellow low beam headlight bulbs for white ones, I'm reading that it's maybe possible that my car has one of two possible types of ballast, halogen or xenon, but I don't know if that...
