days

Bought a 300-CE 24v as a project car a week ago today: Drove perfectly once hot, but was hard to start when cold and had various other minor issues to sort. Was on my way to a local garage to sort out a replacement fuel filter on Friday when a vw crafter flatbed pulled out of a side road...

Since I got my car in March 2012 I have been invited on three driving days. Two by Audi and one by BMW. I have yet to be invited on a Mercedes one. Poor marketing strategy by MB or is it a case of they've had my money and so the jobs done? You would think that they would want to encourage brand...

A thought provoking article, especially on a Mercedes forum. British families just 18 days away from the breadline | Money | The Guardian

I've heard that MB used to have more fault-prone electronics in their cars prior to 2007, is this true? If this is in fact true, is the year 2007 correct or how is it possible to know how to check it when buying a used car? Is it the same for all models? Also, what kind of problems could...

There's me driving my newly aquired old Ford Anglia.My girlfriend in the Passenger seat and the sun was shining. Getting onto the motorway I stopped on the slip road hardshoulder and the Girlfriend climbed into the driving seat and off we went. Within 1/2 mile we were stopped by a motorway...

About 4 weeks ago I took my K8 gixxer for MOT. The dealership had a nice and shiny, limited GSX-R1000Z, limited edition on display. Cut a long story short, it is no longer in the dealership, it is now in my garage :)

Just before the end of March I was toying with different car options, one being to break the vow of a lifetime and go down the lease route. So, finally made a choice of car, checked the sites and WOW! The new quarter has brought prices that are at least double the amazing deals at the end...

Just thought I would share my Mercedes ownership experience over the past 10 days. First up the 124 goes in for its annual service, brake fluid/coolant change and MOT before going back to Italy. One front spring has snapped. I had not noticed anything at all amiss. So two new front springs. New...

I dropped the wife off at the station first thing, went to the wholesalers to collect materials for todays works, popped into cafe for quick sandwich, and onto todays job. Whilst liasing with the client, asked my guy to bring my tools and drills in, he came back with 'where have you left them'...

As above, I've had five outages in the last day or two, momentary but enough to reboot PC, stop clocks and interrupt the central heating. The odd flicker is one thing but five in 24 hours? And I missed a chunk of the ODI on TMS this morning because the alarm didn't go off... I know we had half...

So today things have not been going my way. 1. I spent all day trying to change various lorry axle parts. After 8 hours of swearing at it, sledge hammering, heating up with the gas torch, more swearing, it finaly gave in and came apart. 2. On my way home, some chav in a renault pulled...

Till I'm in possession of a new e class coupe e250cdi sport auto... Can't remember being this giddy about anything before!! Any owners on here who can give me pointers on what to expect... And good things to know?

Well I now understand all the hype. I picked up my new C63 Coupe on Friday and I’m very pleased with it (well I would be):bannana: I flew down from Newcastle to Exeter and was kindly picked up by the supplying dealer. It sounds stupid for someone my age (41) but I was very nervous with my...

Not much but I did manage to bag myself this for the price E280 with some service history and 9 moths mot & a month tax Been looking for a while for a good condition and spec S124 but had no luck Since I like to play with my cars I did not see the point of getting one from known dealers...

I know how Elvis feels; Took the car in for tracking because it was pulling a bit more to the left than usual, found an egg in the inside sidewall of one front tyre and a nail in one of the rear tyres. I don't like repairing punctures or replacing single tyres, so I've had to put a full...

I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has used a C43 (or indeed just about any Merc/AMG!) on a track day and how it went. Did you have any particular issues or did the car hold up pretty well? Did you have brake fade problems, ESP spoiling fun, shredded a pair of tyres in a day...

Honestly, the dangers out there, People on twitter whilst driving, people driving around on part worn tyres, cars with DPFs removed, kamikasi police drivers, middle lane hoggers, injectors failing on diesel Mercedes, de-catted V8s and diesels roaming the country side, someone having a couple of...
