    S211 Boot/Tailgate soft close lock

    Hi, I'm looking for a second hand soft close lock for my 2004 E270 estate. Old one has stopped working and I hate having to slam the boot every time. I'm also loathed to pay the £140 for a reconditioned one especially since there's a £50 deposit on top of that price to return the old one...

    Thinking of buying a soft car cover

    Anyone got any recommendations please. I would like something with an elasticated skirt so the cover does not get blown off onto the floor when I open the garage doors at both end of my garage. Any thoughts or even offers welcome. I want to cover a 2007 CLK63. Thanks.

    R129 soft top care.

    Can anyone advise on what is the best method or product to use for looking after the soft top. I have looked at some of the well known products on offer and they all seem to be nothing more than silicone solutions, as in tyre dressings and the like but very much more expensive.
