My new laptop comes pre-installed with McAfee. :( I have used AVG-Free for a while and am happy with it. I'm not a fan of the likes of Norton/McAfee and would like to uninstall the McAfee before registering the product. Is there a sure-fire way to get McAfee out of the system (Windows 7)...

As Merc enthusiasts, Im sure that quite a few of us have odd spare parts tucked away in our garages that will probably never be used again. With a few GTGs taking place over the next few months, would it not be a good idea to put parts against names on the list of people coming down, you bring...

I am in the process of having my gearbox looked at. The car is a E320 CDi W211 2003 REG with 74k miles on. It either needs a new torque converter/reconditioning/or an entirely new gearbox. 74k miles and the gearbox has gone. Also i face a possible max bill off 1700 quid. Prior to this, the...
