    Downsizing wheels for smoother ride

    Dear MB owners, First of all thank you for giving me access to these forums. I have a thought in my head which is bothering me since I bought our car 2 months ago. So we own a MB '63 plate B200 sport, 1.8 diesel 136bhp, automatic. The aspect of the car inside and out is insane. I got in love...

    engine downsizing

    Down in London for a conference re smaller engines and just had a very interesting presentation on VCR. No, not old recording media but variable compression ratios.

    Downsizing to 2001 SLK32 from 2006 SLK200

    I currently have a 2006 SLK200 Auto which looks the business. However, I've recently been fortunate enough to land a job which comes with a new C Class 220CDI. I'm currently paying for the SLK on a PCP and can't justify the cost each month. To soften the blow of losing the SLK completely, I'm...

    Down-sizing photos for MBClub classified

    I'm having trouble getting my pics small enough to upload to the site. Please can anyone advise the best format (jpeg, gif etc.) to use and how to reduce the size for uploading. I've tried three different formats but each time my files seem to be a factor of 1000 out. Richard Grigsby
