Hi all As a result of a late-onset midlife crisis, I have just bought a tidy 54-plate SL350 with 57k miles on the clock, picking it up next week. Really excited about the prospect of some exhilarating motoring but absolutely petrified that it will become a money pit with a leaking boot and...

Hi everyone. Just committed to a very nice W124 280e. It's my second as I had a slightly shabbier 300E in 2010 for about 30 months. Apart from a stuck inhibitor switch preventing starting, that one never let me down and I regretted selling it ever since. I have a very nice Mondeo 163...

Thought I'd better introduce myself... just bought a 1997 C250 (W202). It's a fairly basic manual "esprit" estate with 167000 on the clock. Rusty arches, and due a service, but seems solid and goes well. I love it. Weirdly I saw it for sale outside a local repair garage (Automerc), got a good...

Good morning. I'm new to Merc ownership and want to keep my SL55 well maintained. It has 40k on it and a full MBSH which I will keep up. If possible I want to head off any common problems before they occur. As far as I'm aware, all is currently good with the ABC and water does not get into...

Hello :-) Just purchased a 2011 E250 coupe complete with lots of options including P35 light package. I noticed on the small screen on the binacle that it displayed a picture of the car with surround view highlighted. I was able to select this option on or off. Now I assumed this might be...
