waiting

Oooops, not the merc fortunately but my transit Luton. Engine mount disappeared, engine sitting on the (now bent) driveshaft, brake lines snapped, exhaust manifold fooked, bugger :( Happy days !!!!

Having had a few Mercs over the years, and a small foray into the world of BMW. I am pleased to say I am back in a Merc. After an almost endless wait I finally took delivery of my new CLS63 AMG - as you would expect I am delighted with it. Just thought i would say hi and introduce myself...

This thread is for speculation, rumour and plausible potential facts! I'm ordering a new company car...and I just realised that MB are planning on releasing a hybrid version of the E class this year. With 109g/km emissions - very good for company car drivers! So: - When do we think it...

So far I have spent the day waiting for Yodle to deliver me some service items.:( I could have walked the dog? or Washed the car? I have changed the two sidelight bulbs for led's as they came in the post. Well with less than two hours of daylight left I might still wash the car. I have...

I've just bought myself a beautiful 2007 ML 320 CDi Sport from a bloke off the Autotrader and the best thing is it only cost £5k! He must be thick to sell it that cheap! All I had to do was transfer him it by western union and the car will get delivered to my door on Friday. How easy...

Title sums it up really. Car complained about low oil yesterday. I in turn complained about it to the dealer who had recently serviced it. Dealer topped up. On returning home I noticed a lot of oil on the driveway, and on looking dripping off the tray. Underside is covered in the stuff...

Having had the lower near side suspension arm replaced FOC I still have a slight knocking noise but much reduced and only usually noticeable on rough tracks and very poor and broken roads. My next line of attack was to do the cheap and hopefully simple things so I have orderded anti roll bar...

A while back I bought a Sony Vaio desktop (the one with all the gubbins in the monitor case) and generally I'm happy with the performance. When I shut it down it hangs for several minutes with "waiting for background programmes to close - force shut-down yes / no" Any ideas what could be...

Yesteday I decided to take “the shed” for a run. It has not broken down or presented me with a bill or MOT failure for 2 weeks so I decided what it needed, since the weather was so good on Friday, was a run up the North West. I had in mind the Mull of Kintyre, but this is Scotland and as...

Well, It took me 5 years to source a set of C43 AMG Sideskirts, and now I have! Massive thanks to Momomo who found them + a set of C43 bumpers still attached to a W202 :bannana: Completely intact, no cracks or scratches. Now to sand them down and respray! Quiet possibly the rarest...

Is it normal for a 51 year old to be exited at the thought of my new, broken, non running, first ever Mercedes to arrive by transporter tomorrow? We are not talking about a new car here. This is a 12 year old, moderate mileage 'banger' to all intents and purposes. But, like a kid on Christmas...

Rang mercedes leeds yesterday to enquire about a nearly new c63, receptionist said the sales guys are all busy we will call you back - still awaiting a phone call !! Is this normal service from mercedes ?

BBC News - Many councils 'waiting for grit' :doh: I've started to buy the odd bag of salt now and then when at the supermarket.;)

They are making a comeback. Lada Cars Are we having old jokes or new ones ?

Finally got some sun today, after a horrible rainy weekend. Decided to go the whole hog with cleaning the new E-Cab and then went for a drive to take some photos... Started off with a bit of snowfoam, clay, cleaners, glaze then 3 layers of wax, and the end result looks a little something like...

Time is going so slow waiting for my E Class. Placed the order early December and I am like a kid waiting for Christmas now! Got to wait until 1st March though before I can play with my new toy! Booked the day off work though to make the most of it :) It's my first MB so I am looking forward...

Just waiting for my E350cdi coupe sport to turn up. Driver just rang saying they are 10 minutes away :bannana:

Hi I ordered my e class coupe a week ago and have been told delivery won't be until May/June, I was wondering if anyone else has ordered, when the order was placed and delivery date, many thanks.

I have had to call mobilo out this morning. Mrs left for work in the SLK and came home shortly after because 'it's gone all farty'. I had a go, into drive - foot down - not much happening. I expect it to be some kind of electrical gizmo, I'm sure that I have read of MAF or MAS sensors...

I'm sorry. But what else can I do? I'm surrounded by furniture stacked up, waiting for (potentially) a cowboy to fit carpet for all of upstairs. I CANNOT stand the waiting for the (potential) arrival and the excuses for why the job cannot be done.... 1. They ain't give me no gripper mate 2...
