Just wondering how they are, according to a little googling, some people seem to think they're quite harsh? I'm thinking of getting one for my (very elderly) aunt who has a budget of around £8k. Torn between auto and manual since shes been driving manual for 60 years! something like this looks...

I have been driving my newly acquired CL55 on new wheels and tyres for about a week now and have spent a small fortune having other things done on the car since I bought it (new torque converter, engine mounts, gearbox mount, fron suspension arms etc.). The tyre pressures are correct and all...

I've just put a new Alpine head unit in my W210, and I am a bit disappointed with the sound quality. There seems to be plenty of bass, but the quality soon deteriorates as the volume goes up:rock:. The sound becomes distorted and clattery (If that makes sense). I believe they have Bose...

Few things popping up at the moment. Most annoying thing if the rattle I am getting from somewhere in the center console which makes me feel like I am driving a £600 car. It only happens at around 70mph at low revs. It comes from around the climate control. Very disappointing. On top of that...

Just thinking about a number plate change and would like something of a really good quality or something a bit unusual......no chav tat or odd lettering just top quality if you see what I mean. I like my plates plain and simple with nothing else other than the reg number on them. I know about...

I thought it had improved. Ive had my car just over 3 years and noticed this today while cleaning the car. The clearcoat has come of in several places on the front of the bonnet. The reat of the car is fine. I have phoned my nearest dealer and as they are 100 miles away, Im being asked to get a...

It's motorexpo at Canary Wharf, and the new BMW 6 series Gran Coupe, the CLS's competitor, is on display. The design is not cohesive at all .. the lines jar, there are far too many lines, the front is ugly with a jaw that's too big, the rear is hideous with lighting that just does not gel...

Well, today I experienced the renowned Merc build quality, for better and worse. The previous owner clearly had kids, and they liked to secrete food and cutlery around the cabin, so I have been taking the seats out, trim out, pretty much most things in order to find all the grot and clean it...

Ive had my 2012 E220 Cdi Sport 125 for about 3 weeks now, after mercedes finally admitting that my 2009 E220 was a lemon. Loving the car so far, the new 7 speed Gtronic is a pleasure to drive. The only problem is the sound quality on a bluetooth call. It sounds like the caller is in a gold...
