Gents perhaps you could assist me with your thoughts on making a good choice of wheels. I currently have 19 inch wheels on the car (a 2011 coupe) with Continentals. I am creating a set of 18 inch with winter tyres. I have acquired two sets of 18 inch wheels i.e. 4 8J (A2074011302) and 4 8.5J...

Still not sorted a motor, the E cab with air scarf and heated seats is in theory a good winter steed but I hunger for size (!). Well if I'm honest if the Legend wasn't in a iffy Glasgow dealers I would have had it but it is and I haven't but in my local emporium of more interesting stuff I have...

My 09 E Class has the COMAND system. It has the radio of course, and I have music on the hard disk, an SD card and on a mp3 DVD. Even though I may be listening to one source, such as radio, when I switch off, when I get back in again it regularly starts up with another source. I've not noted...

SWMBO's B will shortly be needing new fronts. It's been running Falken ZE912's which have been a breath of fresh air compared to the cheese-like noisy Conti's that MB supplied it with - and have lasted almost twice as many miles....however, 912's are history and 914's are now the norm (and I...

Hi all, I have purchased an original loom for heated seats including the trim and switchgear, however........... The heated seat pads I have been looking at are the Waeco MSH50 (£65) and the MSH200 (£125). The cheaper ones are made with elements of coated wire, the more expensive ones are...

Guys, I currently have Continental Contact Sport 3s on the car and I'm definitely in need of two new front tyres, and will not be far off needing a new rear, so I'm thinking of changing from the Continentals as tbh I'm just finding them far too noisy, I know some of you agree with this, but I...

I have decided to purchase new tyres for the front on the E class Estate. It currently sits on Michelin 245/45/17 Y rating, but the nearside one is getting near its end of life. As both fronts seem to have "feathered" off, the dealer thinks this is going to cause the road noise that can be heard...
