Roughly, does anyone know or would anyone like to hazard a guess, how much money do the scrappies make out of an old car?
Just curious. :D
I have just scrapped my W124 1990 300TD which was collected and scrapped. I got £150. :cool:
Cheers

As i`ll be moving to Switzerland this october i`m after the new E class. Went few times in Geneva and Lausanne at Mb dealers to talk about and ...was suprised. If I want a demo car with no more than 2000km , discount would be around 18k CHF (£11k) discount( if serviced by MB).
Don`t know if it`s...
How much do you pay per litre?
can you remember what petrol was per litre when you started driving?
NOW 2010- South Wales - Caerphilly £1.139 per litre:dk:
THEN 2002 - South Wales - Caerphilly £0.74 per litre:thumb:
(I only use the supermarket stations as they seem to be considerably...
Need to get wheels refurbed on both our cars and the prices are frightening.
Local guy who does them at his yard but pretty sure he just rubs them down and then paints them wants £50+ vat each, just rung spit and polish and they want £62+ vat each 4 wheels £293.
Now maybe i am being tight...
Is it just me or have prices of the W210 shot up in recent months?
Last year in April (I think) I bought a lovely E320 Avantgarde in Violaine with Grey Leather with a multiude of nice options (apart from a CD and climate) full a decent SH and in good condition done 66,000 miles. I paid £2,200...
Managed to fill the car with diesel yesterday ready for the festive season, and it only cost 121.9p per litre. Unleaded was also 121.9p which makes a diesel even more economical since the price differential in favour of unleaded has finished.:)
Decided to take a chance and fit a new MAF on spec to see if it cures my mis-fire
Anybody any recommendations of where to buy an original part from? apart from the stealers that is
Thanks
Car is 52 plate W163 (ML320)
Does anybody know what last years prices were for the weekend (Fri-Sun) at Silverstone, adult and children.
Just seeing what roughly it would cost me and son to go

Actually an honest question really.
I've been on the lookout for a genuine W210 or S210 for the last few weeks and seem to be finding prices all over the place.
I went to look at a 2002 135k mile S210 (E320 CDI Avantgarde with black heated leather) that was up for £4895, established I...
So, for the first time that I can remember a fuel station where the diesel is cheaper than the petrol - just for the record both prices are also decent for around here:
105.9 diesel
106.9 petrol
Shell, Paignton. Elsewhere there is parity or petrol costs more.

I'm thinking of buying a mint late 80's 500SE (W126). Not many around so difficult to get an idea of prices. What should I pay for a mint good service history example.
Apart Pistonheads and Autorader who are the specialists delaing in these.
Thanks in advance.

In September 1999 I bought a E300td estate AG with 30000 miles for £29500 from a main dealer. It was a 1997 registered car.

Hello chaps,
I've been out of the game a while, so wondering how C43 prices are doing on the 2nd hand market at the moment?
I've got a 99 C43 with 82K on the clock FMBSH and no expense spared. Ideas as to what I could put it on for? Or what MB would give in p/x (I'm guessing not a lot!)...
I noticed that unleaded is now about 103p per litre.
I also note that Oil is about 70 USD per barrel.
Strikes me this is a bit out of sync with the prices last year - when we had oil at 140 per barrel and petrol at 103p per litre.
I know fuel duty has gone up I think 2p per litre - but...
