Shortly to collect my w208 CLK and have been reading with interest the debate over trad grilles vs star grilles
I have ordered via e-bay the star grill ( see inset) and a flat badge.
I believe it lifts the front of the car from staid to sporty in one easy and economical swoop.
Ok, Merc...
I have been thinking about buying 1 of the MB SL models. I dont know too much about them however there are some crackers on the Classic car web sites. £10k budget available and it would be for summer use only
.
So what should I look out for I hear the SL 500 is fast. Any particular faults to...
Since fitting a new driver's seat controller, the summer opening/closing feature now works all the time instead of sporadically, as it did before.
Except now the driver's seat air conditioning does not turn on when you activate the opening feature. Is this a wiring thing or something that...
Hi all,
Is there a such thing as winter and summer mode on W210 E55's?
What would be the outcome of driving with it in summer mode, in the winter?
Thanks

I have tryed to hold down the lock button on the remote whilst pointing it at the driver door but it don't close the windows.

OK people - here's the start for the Summer 06 Clumber Park gtg. The poll is to set gather preferences for the date and also for overnight stay choice.
We'll look to make it an overnighter for those that want it - you'll see the poll includes dates and overnight. :D
I'll allow the poll to...
Does anyone have any info on what's planned for this summer's E-class facelift? The pages on the web suggest that the changes will be very minor (and largely cosmetic)...but if anyone knows any more (e.g. spec changes?) I'd be keen to hear it, as I'm planning to buy an e-class estate (280CDI)...
My car still has the flaking, kerb-damaged 16" sport wheels on it wearing Pirelli snow sport tyres. Winter is probably just about over now (fractional increase in temperature apparently) so it's time for some new tyres and wheels to go with them, preferably 17". I had a look through the OEM...
Having misplaced my vehicle handbook, it's somewhere around but can't put my hand on it at the moment
I have changed my dash clock [E320 CDI] to BST time, the problem is it reverts back to the old original time, is there a way of saving the time settings, thanks
The Big 80 car+ summer GTG is aways a good day out. Previously held at Jimmys twice and Maffs once. I know its a long way south but The Bridgewood Manor where we had our last southern GTG has excellent facilities, big car parks, free refreshments, loo's, and is a nice place to stay especially if...
