    The CLA coupe is due a price bump in the states according to this article. 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA Gets Price Bump » AutoGuide.com News This model has been a runaway success in the states evidently but less so here. Whether this heralds a price rise in Europe or not remains to be seen?

    Flaky headrests bump from 'Interior' forum!

    I need to recolour and lacquer the rear headrests in my CLK, which I noticed have become flaky.

    Having started a few diesels by hand this one I can understand. nMNTkPA-GtM But this one I would think is much harder. I guess it is using the mass of the wheels as a flywheel. pT_nnBdLmEw And this one is just different... wVRHsqMVEI4
