Hi long time lurker, very occasional poster here, so I will treat myself as new....! I have enquired about a number of new S350 CDI AMG Sports Pack cars. A few have build dates around May, June or July 2012 but one car has a build date of January 2012. This car has a much better spec than...

I've been thinking about have my brake calipers & hubs painted professionally but due to the lack of people that do this locally, I've decided to do it myself in the next couple of months. I've read all the guides on the forums etc I'm going to leave the calipers on the car, wire brush,wire...

Hi, I'm looking into buying a 2008 C class. I understand one of the available options new was a "sports package" - are there any obvious signs to look for that a car has the package rather than just a salesman telling me so. Thanks in advance.

I have a W203 Avantgarde SE Estate and personally think the cars ride height looks a little high. I am looking into lowering this by fitting sports springs (factory standard not 'rude boy' ones) Has anyone done this to theirs? Is it as simple as replacing the springs? or am I hoping too much...

For sale is my lovely C230K Evo Panorama AMG SE 3d Seq Auto. I have owned this for 4 years and has been a fantastic car, but it is being replaced with a CLK next week so needs to go. It is in good condition, has 12 months MOT and taxed until end of May. 102,000 miles, runs beautifully and...

Evening ALL I was rather disappointed with the returned Miles Per Gallon on my 55 plate CLK220 CDI sports MERC. :wallbash: (i)Southampton to Derby @ 160 miles, 90% motorway miles driving at cruise control 70 MPH constant, no A/C and driving smoothly. I returned 38 MPG MAX.:doh: (ii) Derby to...

Guys, anyone knows what the part numbers are for W204 that are fitted with the AMG suspension (lowering of 15mm). Love to see if this can be sourced and installed. Anyone tried doing this? Not considering coilovers yet as I thought -15mm seems like a sensible drop and it should still feel...

BMW went 2 weeks ago and I just the time to give the Merc a good clean and take some decent pictures. Front. Bi-Xenon and LED running lights Full view with the panoramic roof Side profile. 18" 7 spokes AMG wheels Rear. LED everything :) Side Profile with the privacy glass...

C-Class Coupe Sport & AMG Sports Package Moved from the News section as its no longer a 'news' thread... Mercedes introduces C-Class Coupe Sport and AMG Plus Sports package New C-Class models to be launched in June 2012: The C-Class has never been more sporty Geneva/Stuttgart...

I've had an annoying suspension rattle/knocking at low speed (30 and under) for a few weeks now. So this morning I decided to have a look I figured it was probably the drop links having replaced the lower arms last year. My car has sports suspension but hadn't realised this meant different anti...

After some bigger alloys for my 57 E220 Avantgarde . Fancy the 17" ankaa but on MB parts it states "only in conjunction with sports suspension" . Is this a no go then ? Thanks

I have addressed my issue under another link but feel I need to escalate the issue to get a better understanding if my issue is unique or whether other owners are experiencing the same? I bought new a E350 CDi Sports Saloon in June 2010. In short I have endured for over 12 months the following...

Hi All, Been away for a while & need a bit of help again, please. I have sports front calipers. Garage tells me the pad retaining pins are seized & advise that both(:eek:) calipers need replacing. I just wanted to check if this is something that can be fixed easily/cheaply, or is the only...

Can anybody tell me how I can replace the interior light bulb for my merc?

Hi guys n Gals, I am just testing the water some of you willhave seen I have bought a W124 Coupe that is being frixed up well rust sorted anyway, I also have a CLK that I think is mint. And the question is do I sell it or do I keep it. Finances suggest selling it paying some debts off and...

The Vintage Sports Car Club puts on a damned good event and the end-of-season Sprint at Goodwood sees a good turnout of cars both in the paddock and the car park This year saw a huge turnout - the car parks were overflowing and the pits crammed with sports cars of all ages If you have any...

I have a soft rear shock absorber and have been looking at alternative replacements, but it's raised a question. In the Bilstein Catalogue it refers to shocks for a W211 with 'a standard chassis', or one with 'sports suspension'. The question I have does an Avantgarde have 'sports...

I need to get hold of a replacement MB star sports grille emblem for my W211. Apparently, MB only offer an entire grille replacement for £150 + VAT. I've tried eBay and gone through the online scrappies but to no avail. Any ideas?
