Folks
I live the Countryside. This is good as my wife & kids also live there.
Over the past few months on my long dog walks, I have noticed that certain sheep (I now know these to be "men sheep") are wearing what is best described as a back pack that fit's on the front. A sort of leather...
Found this on another forum. I have no idea how much is true, but I found it interesting:

Hi guys, can anyone here give me some advice regarding how to get information from Mercedes/AMG about the W210 E36?
I know the story about the AMG/Mercedes partnership in 1992 that lead to the W202 C36 being sold by MB, so I assume that when the W210 was released in 1995, they figured 'lets...

Hi, I have a 1992 W124 Estate 300TD (Non Turbo and I'm pretty certain it’s not multivalve). I was wondering if anyone knows what the performance figures etc would have been for the model, i.e. MPH, 0-60, CO2, weight, cost when new etc or if anybody knows where I can find the information.
I am...

At which temperature does an oil flow better?
There is no temperature where oil suddenly starts to flow better.
A 10W/40 for example will flow between -25C and 100C or more, but there is some difference in the rate of flow! (True viscosity at -25C is about 7000 Centistoke(cSt) units...
