Sometimes, but not every time from a first start of the day, this situation arises:
switch on ignition, get ABS and ESP disabled on the digital display. Sometimes get convenience functioned unavailable as well. Also glow plug symbol...

Hi guys, gauging interest on my DPE exhaust manifolds because I may sell up soon. These are good for 570hp with a tune on a normal C or E 63.
I think after import taxes and shipping etc, I paid around £2400 for them a few months ago. I haven't fitted them and as such, they are brand new...
Hi guys.
I've had my S211 E320CDI for what seems like for ever, but now it's time to move on.

Is it mainly the older cars that get treated to such lavish and time consuming detailing?
I've just spent an hour washing, drying my car... I am struggling to find time to do more planned detailing like Polishing and claying etc.
