bought

Hi all, Need your advice please. I just collected a 2007 CLS 320, I actually put a deposit on it 5 weeks ago but it needed 'a new steering rack' to be installed by the dealer first. The car has 55,000 miles on it and (I thought) very clean, however there was a respray on the drivers side...

So after looking around for a while I've got myself a 14 plate C63 with only 3k miles on the clock and a nice few extras. Collect it Tuesday. My only slight concern is the car was registered in June 2014 by Mercedes in Preston, then sold at 3 months old and the purchaser only kept it for 7...

Well, not me exactly....but the father in law - I've done enough car buying recently :o (although I still ended up sorting the deal out for him!) He currently has a 2 year old C220cdi S204 and I've got to say, my first experience of the W205 demo today was very impressive. The whole car...

My friend Dave just bought a SL 55 AMG. He had been looking for quite a while and I gad mentioned I would keep an eye out on here and the other side for a nice one within his budget. All seemed well until I have today received an email to say he's bought one, pure impulse buy. I hope for his...

Hello everyone! Pistonheader from Norway here. Been looking at some old merc uberwagons the past few months, toying around with a R129 SL perhaps, or W124 500E why dontcha? wasn't really bothered if it was a saloon, cab, or coupe. Just a big lump up front and a rifle bolt auto latched on to it...

Hello all. Iv new to the forum as i have just put a £500 deposit down on a 11 plate C CLASS estate C180 CGI BLUEEFFI Auto Executive SE Trim with command nag system. My last mercedes ownership was about 10 years ago when i owned a 1989 190E (which by the way was the best car iv have ever owned...

Hi everyone, my name is Simon and I'm new on here. I'm seriously considering buying an E-Class diesel auto saloon. I have been looking at E320 CDi's, but have been told not to rule out E220's as theyre just as good and cheaper to buy. Employed in the motor trade working for Ford, I have...

I bought a personal number plate from DVLA now what? It said something about V50 being delivered in 2 weeks How do I register it for my current car and what happens to my existing number, is it still mine (to put back when I sell) or do DVLA get it?

As the title says! Was sort of a spur of the moment, pick it up late October. Paid £38,000 brand new, panoramic roof, command, white, aerodynamics kit, mirror pack, performance exhaust, that steering wheel (upgraded). (I think that's it?). Doesn't have the black wheels, so trying to source a...

Hey, I'm new to this forum. Just part ex'd my vw passat cc for a mercedes cls. I'd been looking at cls's years ago but due to my age I couldn't really afford one. I was looking at getting a diesel first but ended up with the passat cc. 3 years later I checked my insurance and was very...

Hi all i've bought a C63 AMG Black Series back in May 2014, awesome car really fell in love with it!

I like cars but don't have the time to scour the country on weekends when I want to change. As I bought my last car, the CLS350 GE, unseen without a hitch I thought I'd give it another go. I've been touring via AutoTrader and selected a few E320CDI estates, W211 post 2006 facelift. Best deals...

Just wondering.. A family member had a C-Class on PCP a few years ago on a 2 year deal. 2 years came to an end and the car was handed back. They enquired as to whether it would be possible to buy the vehicle but due to the terms/how PCP works I understand the finance company aren't allowed...

Hi All, After years of missed chances to buy an S320 and still having the desire a few years on to buy one; now was the time as I managed to purchase this beauty. Collecting it tomorrow - to say I am excited is an understatement. Now for the upgrades!! Certainly want a rear diffuser with...

Hi all, new to the forum but a life long merc and german car fanatic (although this is my first since a short time with a w124 many years ago) - have mostly frequented Pistonheads but go easy on me! After the dark days of a brief flirtation with a clio RS200 I picked up its replacement 3...

HI all, I've just bought a w211 270cdi with 67k on it. It had transmission fluid changed at 33k so I think it needs changing again?! I live near gravesend in Kent, and was wondering if there are any good merc service specialists in my area that will give my car a kind of once-over 'health...

any good as the are less than half the price of the OE spec ones but more than the real cheapy wings Looking for W210 but a idea on any other model will be appreciated cheers Brett
