:( Hi all, I am at my wits end. I have a C220 CDi SE Coupe. I had some trouble with it about 8 months ago. Not starting when warm. Dealer said it was injector 1 electrical fault, 2 & 3 faulty mechanically. So I paid, now every 3 - 5 weeks the car will go into limp mode and cut out. I get...

Has any one read "Turning Back the Clock, The Life and Times of a Motor Trader" by Jeff Owen. I am only a third of the way through but its an interesting start. You can get it from Amazon for less than £5.

Just looking through "Autocar" this morning when I noticed the 60 - 0 braking times for the tested cars in the back. Looked up the Merc SL and its got one of the best times!
