I wonder if some members of MB Club are becoming a bit cliquey... We have the 124 meets, the amg meets, pre-95 meets... I remember the days when meets were always open to everyone. Am I the only one to notice this trend of 'clubs' (sort of) within the club increasing? It seems a bit of a...

I currently own a 2007 SLK55, I have just had it serviced, put some new tyres on it and extended the warranty for 1 year (£780). I paid £31k for the car when prices were low back in early 2009 and I am comfortable with the outlay and the warranty position. The car had a problem with the nav...
