Hi Is an hpi check still the best used car check or are they much the same as the alternatives such as AutoCheck and My car check? Regards Tan

I phoned the local MB dealer in order to have the ATF level check before I go on a long trip. They suggested I have a full vehicle health check. WHen I asked how much, they said it's free :) Maybe some other member may want to enquire about this? Also, does anyone know a nothern version of...

Simple question. Is there one vehicle that caters for all needs ? Performance / Capacity / Economy ? One vehicle, any brand - what would you have and what failings would you accept ? Or do you need two ?

I had to have the alarm system disabled due to frequent nuisance tripping, by a reputable independent Mercedes garage, as the Main Dealer was too busy to carry out emergency work. Car has since been with the Main Dealer twice [2 days each time] had new rear SAM fitted - -however they are now...

We live in a fairly quiet village but occsaionally have a problem with youths vandalising cars. Normally this is either one of the drunken little s*&$s jumping on the bonnet and roof or scratching the bodywork. Normally my cars are parked on the drive but we are about to have some building...

Yesterday, I paid a deposit of £3000 to a mercedes dealership for a CLS costing £19k. This was my first BIG mistake as they only asked for £1,000 but said that I could go up to £3000 on credit card if I wanted - so I paid the £3,000 to get those extra points! When I got home I thought I would...

I was just wondering if anybody has recently had any experience in negotiating the price of a used vehicle with a MB dealership. Today, I offered £17,000 for a vehicle which was priced at £18,490. I thought this was a quite a good figure to start off a bit of negotiation but the dealership in...

I seem to have found some OEM ribbed mats in the right colour for sale at a company called Special Vehicle services. Special Vehicle Services Ltd I've not heard of them before - has anybody used them or know anything about them? The name's familiar but I just cant remember where from.

Hi All, For a little New Year diversion, how about browsing this German site of colour codes with images of vehicles, choosing a favourite colour and vehicle, and telling us your colour. Or is that all a bit Blue Peter? Anyway: http://www.oldtimer-farbtabelle.de/bilder.php?lng=de...

Hi Unfortunately my wife has been involved in a car accident today, our car was hit by a lorry. Thankfully nobody was injured as the accident was more of a severe scrape than direct impact. I have not seen the car yet, but from what I have been told, the damage is doors, wing mirror, from...

I had a bad car buying experience over the weekend, which I want to get off my chest. We've been looking for a 1-series hatchback :ban:and I rang a well known local(ish) independant BMW online showroom on Friday about a 1 year old, with very low miles. The call went ok, the salesman went out of...

I have ordered a E coupe that is due to be deilvered early December. For obvious reasons I would like to delay pickup + vehicle registration date until January. I reckon when I come to sell this car in about 18months it could be worth £1000 more being a 'year' newer. However my local friendly...

Hi all, I am looking to purchase a Mercedes e class diesel estate for under 5k and I have spotted this ad on ebay. I am interested in the vehicle but confused as to why there are no bids being made on it. It has relatively high mileage but seems in good condition and the seller seems reputable...
