    Nice day for a drive

    After all the crappy weather we have had lately it was rather nice to see the sun shining today.

    w219 navigation drive

    Hello! Long time lurker. First time poster. I picked up an 06 cls 500 a couple months ago. The command would not start up. I would get the MB logo for a few seconds then off again. I figured out it was the nav drive in the boot that was breaking the most loop so I bypassed the fibre optic...

    Why don't more people drive luxury brands like Mercedes or BMW?

    I Don't understand why more people don't choose cars like the CLA or C Class or 3 Series BMW. For example, I paid £1800 advance payment and £280 per month on a fully maintained lease for my CLA, yet the Insignia or mondeo or similarly sized cars are often just as expensive and sometimes even...
