I bought a 2003, 56k mile SLK230 yesterday for my partner's birthday, which she loves. Driving it with her yesterday I was pleasantly surprised at what a well built, solid little thing it is. I know they have their rust issues (this one has been sorted so is good in that respect) but I'm really...
Insurance renewal is due and my confirmation from Admiral stated over £1,500 for the SLS. A little more than I expected, but I wasn't surprised. Until I did a Go Compare quote that came in at £840 :D

Hi Guys.
Just got back from a weeks Camping Holiday in Southampton, and my faithful W202 behaved impeccably well. Towing a trailer with all our camping gear in it, carrying 4 adults and an eight berth tent with all the luggage that goes with, over the week she did 553.6 miles at an average of...
Been looking at a new car today insisting I want an E350 estate to replace my E320 S211. However I agreed a test drive in an E250 and was surprised at how quiet, comfortable and quick it was so now I'm widening my search. Anyone gone down to an E250? What's the change like?

When the 0-60mph figures are compiled how do they do it?
The thing that puzzles me is:
If an auto car has sport mode, do they use the sport mode when testing the 0-60 or not.
My other car is a Vauxhall Omega 3.0V6 with sport mode box.

Recently been on a trip to buy a new car for the wife (merc of course)
400 miles round trip when we returned i was quite surprised to see what kind of mpg my clk 55 had down.:eek:
Had to take the car to the garage today cos the brakes have been feeling a bit strange - noisy and a slight judder thru the peddle when braking hard.
Found Stuttgart Garage in Pontypridd (just north of Cardiff), popped in this morning, the chap there, Kevin, checked it all over - work...
