road

Hi all, Been given a 95n e220 coupe by the wife's uncle. It's a non starter but I fully intend to get it back on the road.. Just run in at 115k but it's only done 3k in the last 7 years! Been standing for a year so it's going to be a bit of a project. Will need 2 wings and the laquer is...

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. After years of focusing UK road safety on what can be easily measured automatically (i.e. speed) instead of what's important (driver quality, education, training, engineering, etc.) we seem to be hitting the buffers. We've got "Twenty's Plenty" and "Speed Kills...

I Guys, I'm a new member to the club so this is my first post. I recently bought my car and love it to bits! It had really bad cheap tyres on it so thought the road noise I was hearing was caused by said tyres. I had a set of Pirelli's fitted and the noise is still in my opinion unacceptable...

Have been looking to buy S Class and have found that road tax differs according to wheel size 17" + 18" = £285 pa while 19" + 20" = £485 pa. Would anyone check if they were changed after buying? :confused:

As per the title.....Charlie is having one of his £40 Saturday's this weekend (15th November) at his new place in Farnborough. I'm on at 10.15am so if anyone else fancies a go email Surrey rolling road and see if there are any spaces left! [email protected]

Hi Does any know how to claim a road tax refund. I bought the car and had to tax it. However I am now registering the car as disabled and entitled to free road tax. Before the new system I registered the car as disabled and I sent the tax disk with a form to the DVLA and received a...

Could not see if the existing threads covered this: If I am reading the new road tax system correctly, you can effectively tax for a month at a time? I.e. I have SORN'd Big Gertie (my MH) from the 1st November. But lets say in January I decided to go on a jaunt - I could tax it then for...

Hi, just taxed my CLK 320 petrol and had to pay £266.75 for six months. When I last taxed the car six months ago the cost was £156.75, has this increase been due to the new tax system as I did not see any notification of the price difference.

The S124 was due mot and was expecting it to need a fair bit of work doing. It was left to Birkdale Motors to acheive this. The rear subframe has been dropped out with good news on that front. The mounts etc are in very good condition, its had a new set of pipes fitted to the rear end...

I'm not sure it this has been done before - but I thought it may be fun to do again, even if it's a resurrect. Similar to Scott's scrapyard thread, but with the cars/bikes not quite so dead. The only rule being that it must be something that you've seen on the road or out and about, and not...

Biker maxed out/limited 299kmh Pure lunacy! http://youtu.be/e-svi6_uEmg

Hi Any help over knocking problem can't locate it, When going over bumps in the road at speeds of less than 40 i get a metallic knock/ rattle from the front corner of the car. Ive had the roll bar bushes changed , idle bush linkage and engine mounts changed, still no change. i removed the front...

I have noticed something about my SL55... people (non petrol heads) seem to dislike it. Yes it's loud, but then so is my 911 turbo. My 911 is 2008 and I have had it since new, and my SL55 is 2003 and I've had it for a few months, so it's worth less than a new BMW 320d. Yet I've had people...

When using the satnav every now and then it suddenly show the car as ‘off road’ or running along a parallel 'road' to my real location. This first appeared in my wife's car in which I retrofitted the unit. At first I thought that it could be that I had not positioned the antenna in the best...

Was on CH5 yesterday morning, programme was about 'Angry Brits' and had a few road rage incidents. The incident from 15 miins 30 secs involving the bikers was scary. Angry Brits: Caught On Camera | Angry Britain | Channel 5

I've been reading through the pros and cons of owning an amg post and it made me think. Does anyone else feel that they're wrongly judged sometimes by other road users when driving there amg? Although I don't get chance to drive the c63 on a daily basis as I'm in my van most of the time to...
