I know Mark Cosovich has written one but can't find it anywhere on the site. I've seen an auto 1985 230TE 7 seater that's tempting me & want to bone up before I go for a proper look on Sunday. The car's been owned by the same guy for 20 years & looks great. I couldn't believe the mileage...

The Dec issue of Performance Car is out with my C43 in the buyers guide. Needless to say I had a lot of fun hanging out in the Ace Cafe, talking shop with three great petrolheads - Dan the journo, Max the snapper and Peter from John Griffiths Mercedes. The pictures have come out very well...

On this site, I mean. Something like a check list of any nasties, like bubbling rusty sills or whatever? Broken down by model? Thanks

Well my Brabus 3.6 has eaten its way through yet another headgasket :(, thankfully I have an MLS gasket that PUMPISH (guy the mercedesshop forum who's putting out 600bhp from m103s!) made for me. I've been losing oil in this car at the same rate (~1L/300mi) I had done before the rebuild last...

Hi all, just got my new (80k) 1995 E36 AMG estate auto... wow. Anyway, a quick one, it was supplied with an E320 estate users manual - which is kind of correct, I guess, but did MB/AMG supply more specific manuals/guides with their W124 cars? This being 1 of 12 dealer supplied cars would I...

How would I find out what my merc would be to sell off privately? I've seen cars almost identical to mine go from £700 to £2000. Ta in advance. It's 15 years old, so I don't think Parkers will have them now. (1993 K 280E, 130,000)

Does this have "us" down to a tee (or should I say tea)? England is an irritating and insular country full of overweight, binge-drinking, reality TV addicts, a new guide warns tourists. (Advertisement) But in the new Rough Guide to England, the English are also hailed as a nation of...

Hi folks, First off, I'm a newbie here, and so apologise in advance for asking something which may be listed in an FAQ somewhere. I did a search on the forum (and on Google) but found nothing definitive. I got my C-Class Sport Coupe recently - it's a W203 I believe and was first registered in...

I'm looking for some information from someone in the trade. What information regarding part-exchange values does the Glasses Guide give.I do not want any specific details just general information. Given the make, model and year, does it just give one price or does it give say good, average...

A few months ago, just after I bought my W124 cabriolet, I renewed the seat belt extender guide on the drivers side because it was showing signs of wear and in fact the previous owner had stapled it together to stop it falling apart !!!. I can now see why he didn't replace it ! It seems that...

My seat belt guide for drivers side is split (currently glued together!) so looking for a new one! I have another but unfortunately is for passenger side :D

Anyone remember this?? :devil: pdf file

Just came indoors from doing this so I thought I'd be a helpful chap & post this "How To".:) To change fog lamp bulbs on a 2001 W203 C Class with halogen lamps (most likely the later face lift models will be the same unless they are Xenon's) you will need nothing more than a 10mm spanner or...
