As anyone done this? Northcoast500.com It's a bit of a dream of mine, but I doubt I'll do it as I strongly suspect my husband would now not be able to get in/out of my little car due to arthritis. I look at this website so often. So, anyone done it? Anyone done it in a very old car? Best...

Hi I have Maintained a few Mercs. over the years. A couple of 230e w123s a 2.0 w201 and a w124 250D. At the moment I am restoring my 1972 w114 coupe which was my daily driver for about 8 years. It has an OM602 diesel fitted from a w124. (apologies to the purists!) My daily driver is now a...

My 2012 PPP C63 was due a B service and transmission flush in a couple of months (I'm at 31k miles currently) but i normally get the jobs done early so I know everything is A-Ok. I got the obligatory quote from MB and nearly choked at a £1050 bill for a job that didn't even include plugs or...

Hi All Want to refurb the factory 18's that came on with the car while I am looking for the new wheels I want. Just want a good painted finish, rather than diamond cut, as I have had enough of water ingression between the metal and lacquer with previous diamond cut finish alloys on other...

I said I would do a fresh post.....so...... It would be nice to have a little meet up with some equally silly Merc owners for chats, car admiring and general car chat. A Saturday would be best for me. Last time we met at the Woodman's Arms at Hammerpot , West Sussex and I think most people...

Has anybody on here ever dealt with them,if so were they any good?They seem to give the best quotes out of all the discount dealers that I have seen.

I'm relatively new to this forum, but always been active in previous car forums, so willing to try and arrange a South Coast Meet for AMG Owners some time in May. To start off I'd like to get some preferences on the preferred location and a meeting point, so to start off I'm looking for your...

Hi all am new to this forum and going to be looking for lots of hints, tips and parts to help breathe a new lease of life back into my recently aquired W210 E300TD. I am no mechanic so will be looking for local help as well as guides here on the forum. Current project list includes...

Hi all, thank you for sharing such brilliant information on this forum. After checking a few out I've just picked up today a 320, its 12 years old with 60,250 miles on the clock...........bright silver with black leather interior. Its in sound condition cosmetically and mechanically and...

Hello all, Since March I have been the proud owner of a '55-plate CL55 AMG Kompressor, and have been meaning to get on here for a while! The car itself is the classic silver with black leather combo, which I always said I'd avoid but actually looks really smart. Not a massively optioned...

B]Day one: Getting to Skye[/B] As you know from the thread in the Benz bin I decided to tour the Isle of Skye with my time off. I had decided that as I had an immensely enjoyable tour last March towards the end, I would repeat the idea but tour somewhere differently. Thing is, the weather...

If anyone is interested there will be a group meeting up for a drive around Portsmouth area, 16 cars have signed up so far and 8 are AMG's. Its being organised on PH but if anyone is interested and not a member on there just post here and I will put your name down. The only ones I...

If this was you? I salute you sir. Not since banger racing came back into fashion in it's demolition derby format have I seen such car handling. Your control as you manged to undertake entire lines of traffic forcing all around you to scatter like a flock of seagulls. No. It wasn't your...

Have been meaning to put something up on a separate thread with regards to a ''South Coast'' meeting. I would suggest somewhere between Portsmouth and Brighton. Now that we have our First SLS man on board it has given me the kick up the backside that was needed. There has already been a little...

Well, its good to be back on familiar turf and still off work for another week I decided a good old grand tour was needed to commemorate the sunshine...or so I thought. I aimed the shed up Loch Lomond, and wafted up on the NSL and stopped at Arrochar. I got up at 7am so was touring nice and...

If anyone lives in or near Ayr, could they send me a pm, please? Many thanks.

Hi guys, My better half recently bought me a camcorder for my birthday and I am trying to learn the ropes of creating and editing videos. After a nice week long break along the North Coast of the Emerald Isle, armed with my camcorder and suction mount, I thought I would take the opportunity...

The daughter had a choice for this weekend - a birthday party or a weekend at a caravan site on the East Coast, together with grandparents and best friend + family. Road on the Friday afternoon a revelation. People (and lots of them) overtaking and making progress. Very unusual. Skoda VRS...

Hi All Been asked now by numerous members if we could organize a GTG on the East Coast of Yorkshire. So my thoughts are as follows. We meet up on Marine drive in Scarborough at the North Bay end where there is ample free parking side by side (good photo opportunity) late afternoon. Have a...
