newbie

Just a quick 'hi'. Took delivery of my 16 plate car last week to replace the 14 plate Bentley v8s GTC. Early impressions are very positive. Well equipped, roomy, comfortable and feels like it will be quite rapid (still running in so not going daft). More when I figure out how to edit off my...

Hi, Ive tended towards Mercs over the past few years having owned 2 Merc built Grand Cherokees. I decided I liked the C class in particular when I was given them as courtesy cars when the jeeps were in for service and warranty work. The sales technique worked so once we stopped tin...

I have a 2001 clk 200 compressor 6 speed manual . i have had it for a year and the bodywork is a bit shabby. i bought it for a project that has lost a bit of momentum. I have upgraded the headlights. So the bug is back lol. Are there any members near Nottingham?

Hi all, Just brought a Ml55. Really pleased. Car does have some slight issues that need attention and I have a few questions :- 1) Fuel gauge works, then doesnt work. I filled it completely up twice and on the second fill the gauge worked so wondering if the sensor is dirty. Sensor is...

Hi All! On Friday I became a newbie Merc owner by buying my first C-Class C270 CDI (w203). The dealer was amazingly patient with me (they must have felt like :wallbash: dealing with me) and helped me through the process. I have now spent 24h with the car and I am absolutely loving it! Took...

Hi all, new to the site having sold an escort Cosworth and wanting a C63 next, looking to buy face lift car the question is, is it worth buying a PPP car or should i buy a non PPP and get De-catted and map........... Any info from hardened C63 owners much appreciated. I have my eye on a car...

Hello everybody and thanks for adding. I have recently bought an E class 3.2 Elegance estate and must say how chuffed i am.... for some strange reason in my years have never crossed into the MB way of thinking, but at the moment glad i did. I went for an older, (cheaper) car to see my way...

Tempted by the good price and relatively low mileage, took the plunge to buy one of the above in Black. It now lives with us here in the Isle of Man and my missus and I fight over who gets to drive (funny she was never that keen on driving anywhere before!). Looking forward to learning lots...

As new as a 57 year old can get in any case. I loved my old sprintervan but I've now got a V230 which is the biz though it looks like it might give me more grief it'll be worth it I think. I've put a post in the engine bit about a mystery noise if anyone wants to take a listen,

Hi all, Just wanted to say hi to everyone, and no I don't have a Merc just yet but actively looking for a C209 Mercedes CLK 200 Kompressor. Can anyone give some tips as to what to look for and suchlike? I understand the timing chain and sprockets can be a bit of a weak point with these...
