Apologies, this one turned out longer than I'd expected, as the concept came up that VINs could also help thieves steal our beloved cars to order... Yesterday my M-B dealer sent me the VIN of my car which is being built in a week or so (hooray!). I was about to upload the VIN into that...

sucks. I had a hand op so for 4 weeks afterwards couldn't drive. I caught the bus into Slough once to go shopping - £9.20 return to go 3 miles and back. Then I had to go for an eye test at High Wycombe - the pupil is dilated so you can't drive for six hours. A shame because it is only 15...

Just wanted to say publicly what a thoroughly nice man TrapperJohn is. Nothing is too much trouble and he goes out of his way to help others, a fact of which quite a few forum members are aware :bannana::rock::thumb: The BEST forum!

So, I was determined not to add any options to my C63 to keep the lease costs low, but now I'm getting a bit of a niggle about Privacy glass, most of my work colleagues think it would make the car look a lot better. I've ordered Obsidian Black with Sand/Black interior, I believe the car will be...

=9590"]News Could Budapest really lose its public transport very very soon?

On Saturday some friends and I decided we would go and watch some rallying which was going on in Perthshire. Here is the full album 2nd October, Aberfeldy Colin MacRae Rally | Facebook Two of my mates are very big on rallying, its not something I know an awful lot about other than it...

I have recently started to use public transport more often. Mainly because of two projects, one in Kent and one in Glasgow, which made road travel something of a chore. I did quite enjoy this, although I noted that the rail was nearly always more expensive than the air option. I have a need...

I've just watched a very interesting documentary on BBC2 about our 'political elite' being public school educated. I'm not normally one to agree with Andrew Neil, yet in this case, the future doesn't look too pretty unless you're from a financially priviledged background. Very sad...

On The National Archives site (LINK) I found this section containing many Public Information Films. The first film listed is "Coughs and Sneezes" from 1945. Fantastic! There aren't many Public Information Films these days and browsing the site takes me back.. LINK.

Thanks to Ian and his grandson and Aandyy of course for the day spent on a C service for my E320. Brake pads, engine oil Air/Oil/fuel filters, ATF oil and filter change star diagnostics, cups of tea, steak pie from round the corner and much more (apart from hobnobs which apparently Aandyy really...

What has the world come to when a thing of beauty is de-faced!!Thats the first thing thats wrong about this ad,HOWEVER the real tragedy is that someone has made him an offer which means that there must be another stupid person out there! So to all the sensible people i say did two holes and...

Checking up on some immigration stuff I discovered this useful fact about the public *enquiry* offices on the Home Office website: "The public enquiry offices do not handle enquiries, or give advice." So why do they call them enquiry offices?

Before i start Dieselman and Robert Saunders i mean headlights not public exposure....:D I was driving to the Gym today and for some reason i thought about when i owned a Mk1 Golf Cabriolet how when ever i saw one or another VW we would flash our headlights in aknowledgment. This got me...

A quick question that I'm sure someone on here will be able to answer.... We've got a family wedding this weekend and the wedding party have hired a venue for the reception. Everything has been hunky-dory up til now, except when the peeps doing the catering went to see the place. "Ah-ha,"...

Hi I am looking for a WiFI package, BT open zone or similar to sign up to. Does anyone have any experiece of these, if so, which one do you use. So far, I have found out that for £5 per month I can get 500 minutes with BT open zone or I can go on pay as you go which is charged at 20p per...

Thinking of going to London for a few days (as a tourist) and thought about a visit to MB World as it isn't too far from the centre of London. Has anybody travelled via public transport to MB World? The website states that Weybridge station is only a mile away, but I suspect this will be a...

I've been reading some of the recent threads about people racing on public roads. Last night on Look North, the local BBC TV news program, there was an article about a 17 year old with no licence or insurance racing his pal on the B roads of Lincolnshire. He came round a corner on the wrong...
