    Help, W123 shakes foron startup

    Help, W123 shakes on startup Hello, I am fairly new to this forum and this is my first post. About a month ago I acquired a 1985 w123 230e with 66k on the clock which is a pleasure to drive. In the last week, every time I start it in the morning it starts without a problem but then the revs...

    Silverstone GP Track Day 22/02 - Last Minute Drop Out Offer

    So one of our party for Monday has dropped out. As they are unable to cancel at such short notice, it means there's a cheap pass for a car and 2 additional drivers up for grabs. I'll be there in my 507 C63 with an RS5 to keep me company. Anyone interested, let me know. Mark

    Bluewater - last minute . com

    Going to get the car out tonight. They don't seem to have gritted yet so I'm taking advantage of a dry night before winter kicks in. A couple of guys have already said they'll be keen to meet up. Come along if you don't have much on. I'll run recon in the Alfa before I set off just to...

    What happens when you leave booking to the last minute..

    ... you get the car that nobody else wants :doh: Maybe I'm being harsh, but it is an Atkinson Lee chauffeur special, a manual E220 CDi. This is the first manual Mercedes I've ever driven and it takes a while to get used to having to use clutch and swap gears oneself. At least the interior...

    Just humour me for a minute...

    As some of you know, I've put my C36 up for sale and was intending to drop a '55 lump in the 'C43, then maybe look at supercharging it. In a moment of clarity today, this struck me as being a bit silly; why not sell both AMG's and buy a C32? After all, I've got a bit of a crusade to own every...

    5 minute idle MPG

    Had to move the car out of the way this morning - there was some good music on the radio so ended up sitting there for 5 minutes - was a bit surprised when i looked at my mpg count to see it at 9.9mpg! Granted, i wasn't moving anywhere, but that'd sucked a lot of juice through in 5 minutes (i've...
