autobahn

Assume you live in Germany, what speed are you comfortable at for extended periods i.e. cruising? I've driven 155mph many times but my comfortable cruising speed is 100mph. You may say that's psychological being 30mph over UK limit or just a nice round number. But I'm also uncomfortable...

Returned from a fantastic trip to the AMG factory late Monday night. I had a feeling my car was going to be a bit battered as we hit a new stretch of autobahn and I got blasted with newly laid chippings:wallbash: The motor was in a bit of a state as the weather was pretty bad on both legs of...

Hello all, I've dug-up this video clip. It's a tremendous recovery, but I was more interested in just where it all went wrong for him? Did 4wd save the day? I didn't hear him lift-off before losing the tail; did he hit a bit of oil/diesel? I'm curious as to whether there's a recognised...

Just got back from a manic trip to Germany, driving 1750 miles round trip (final destination in Berlin). The CLK performed flawlessly and never once complained about being pushed to 150mph on the A2 between Hannover and Berlin. :devil:
