Guys, Girls. i was looking at the 124's rear shelf (the bit that stows away the roof) this weekend, and it had some marks on it. I also realized when ever the car was washed, this area had never really been addressed. ...maybe from years of dust in the atmosphere or when ever sitting in...

Hi folks, As most of your have probably read, I've been lucky enough to get my hands on a W209 CLK 55 AMG, 53 plate with 41k on the clock. This now needs a new radiator, TC & gear box rebuild :-( Mr Manek rightly called it that the rad had gone due to lack of use. Is there anything...

Hi all, Well it's been a very long week and a bit without my car but it's finally back home :), I'd only driven it for 7 days and it's been gone 8, not sure why it took such a long time, maybe a mixture of diags, getting parts from MB, getting parts to the electrician, getting the seat off and...

M4X BE I really had fun at those lights so next time,don`t judge a car by the look.By the way if you see this,you might as well join the club :thumb::)

I guess this is one of the last throes of the current parliament - transport committee output on young drivers. Five main points put forward: 1. Learn to drive from 17, but no test until 18 2. Minimum number of lessions within a structured training syllabus 3. Extended hazard perception...

Confusion reigns. My daughter is 16 soon. As part of my fathers estate there is a very good (i should know, i sourced it) little a class to deal with. I had a verbal agreement with him that when he finished driving i would buy it for said daughter (who doesnt yet know). Another family member...

Interesting statistics and the reason for the driving test age being increased to 18. Young male drivers are the biggest cause of death of young women in Britain. Almost one in two drivers killed at night is under 25. I had no idea of this of this horror statistic. Full article via the...

Checked my VIN online and it says the delivery date of the car is 10/00. Could this be when the model was introduced as my registration says 2002?! This was what I bought it as... Based in Dubai and it is an import from Japan so it is possible that it is a 2000 model but must have ben one of the...

The AGE Tuning shop is now back on E-Bay, but the amount of stock is limited.

Hi, I've noticed that my servicing interval is not variable, straight line count down from about 9000 odd from my last service tail end of last year. When I bought my '53 plate E320 CDI (registered about Nov 03) I could have sworn it was variable, the more I drove it on the motorway the more...

Tried to renew my SL tax this morning and it came up "Vehicle not insured" I look at the bank statement and the money was taken out, I find the papers and all OK, I ring MB and ask why it does not show up, they said it is there. After 1 hour I found the problem, I had not told them of the...

I've just put in a second hand Blaupunkt tape deck in my tractor. Here is my problem it keeps switching channels on the radio and also turns the tape deck off. I know his is for traffic announcements but it seems to happen about every 10 min and is getting truly annoying. What do I do to stop...

Hi there I bought a new C220CDI Avantgarde in February and have been really pleased with it so far. But I am a bit puzzled by the fuel consumption experience I have had and wonder whether anyone else has found the same. My initial few weeks or so with the car involved one long round trip...

Hi all, i'm 21 and gave my car to mercedes a few weeks back and they said that they no longer give courtesy cars to under 25's. I asked since when this rule had been put in place and he said that its been there since the beginning of 2004. What I find odd and made aware to him was that they...

I notice more and more newer car owners on this Forum.:) But there is still the Mod boys who prefer the slightly older ones "To Play With".:bannana: :bannana: So let us see what cross-section of cars we have Mates.:cool: :cool:
