Whilst I appreciate that it is theoretically possible to swap front seat covers ( to remove the seat back cover from the passenger seat back and fit it to the drivers seat back, for example). Has anyone actually done it? With the exception of any holes ( for example where the armrest fits, or...

Having just traded my E92 335i in for a 2011 ML350CDI, I found the steering wheel to be a little anaemic in terms of feel . . . So a few too many beers, saw me bidding on an winning an AMG wheel from a European seller on ebay. Definitely a step up in terms of finish, and much more like...

Hi, newbie to the forum here - just got myself a lovely 2007 W211 E320 cdi estate in 'sport' guise. I love everything about the car but the ride is a bit harsh on the 18" alloy wheels as I live in the country with lots of lanes and potholes. Is it any easy swap to go for 17" or even 16" wheels...

So the time has come to swap my old 13 reg SL350 for a 14reg one. Its 12 months was almost up, I'd covered 7,200 miles in it and now it'll get auctioned off to MB Dealers. The new one is diamond white, whereas the previous was Polar white, I think. It lacks the Harmon Kardon and Speed Limit...

Evening all, This is more of a 'testing the water' for sale advert, got the bug for something new :thumb: I've not owned this long and whilst it's a fantastic car, its pretty much identical to a previous W203 I had and ever since I bought it I kind of wish i'd gone for another Merc I...

I'm investigating how to change over my speedometer instrument face from mph to kph, in anticipation of taking my W211 E55 estate back with me to Australia in the coming months. I know I can change to metric units in the settings of the dash, but the dial face is only mph currently and it has...

Just wanted to share some progress I was making in improving my new purchase the c230k. An infinitely superior car to the old c180 which has been relegated to donor car duty :D The c230 was not without faults when I got it, the previous owner had attempted to repair the rust on the wheel arches...
