    What on earth?

    What sort of car coating/covering is this? A kind of velour/velvet looking material. Spotted in Derby today before I hit Pride park, never seen that before. Thought my eyes were playing tricks on me as it approached in the mirror, reminds me of the Dumb & dumber film! It didn't look tacky...

    Battery earth

    I would like to know where the battery earth cable attaches to the body on a W168. I do know that the earth cable is bolted to the rear of the sump pan but there is a slightly thinner cable that bolts to the body somewhere underneath the car.
