    Reporting back - first few months CLS 63 AMG

    Thought I would pen a quick few words to report back on first few months of ownership of my 2008 CLS 63 AMG. I have always dreamed of owning one of these magnificent cars, but it has been a distant thought as they remained beyond my resources, and the head heart battle was always won by the...

    C63S vs M3 in this months Evo

    Evo has a head to head between the S and M3 - choice quoting: "The AMGs motor knocks the M3's into the middle of next week for output, excitement and drama" "the gap between the two cars has now closed to a point where there's so little to choose between them, you may as well flip a coin" but...

    Concerned 6 months out of work coming up due to ops

    All my working life I've been a self employed builder. Up until around 4 years ago I was I would say an over average active male who enjoyed work and play. I was never into sport much but could jog a fair few miles, very fit and always larking around on motorbikes. This brings me to what...

    6 months with the e55

    Well it's been 6 months since I bought my e55. In that time I have done 3300 miles and it has averaged 18.4 mpg in that time. Nothing has gone wrong of any note, and the next service (a biggie) is due in 6000 miles. I have to say that I find the car enormously rewarding to own. Everything just...

    Full Fat Range Rover - 3 months on

    For many years I've longed for a Range Rover with no rational reasoning behind this. This is complicated by my work mileage making ownership of such a beast impractical. In May I finally found a way round this, and the wife now drives a Range Rover :) The car that I bought was a 2005...

    Hi - just thought I would share some thoughts after 6 months and 4000 miles in my c63 507 coupe. I came from a e92 M3 and before that RS4 but the Merc is the best car I have owned so far - I am still loving it atm and haven't had the urge to want to swap it for anything else which is a good...

    SLk Six months in..

    Thought I'd give a quick update on the progress of my SLK, now I've had it for six months. In a word - excellent! The engine is getting better, quieter, quicker and a tad more frugal (although I've never achieved the figures quoted), I'm nudging ever closer to an average of 40mpg. So far it's...
