So last night we (me and Davy Mcneil) decided we'd go to the pub, we decided we'd take the scenic route.....via Birmingham and the Autosport Show at the NEC.
A number of travelling methods were planned, firstly the bus, though we'd leave Edinburgh at 9pm on the Friday and get back today...
the AMG driver made me sick:(
Girlfriend was fine while i sat in the corner greener than Kermit the frog
Not a gool look:o:o:o
(Worth it though as the C63 estate was astonishing)
I trundled down to Brooklands yesterday because I heard that there would be some cars there earlier that morning, and I only live about 15 mins away.
Anyway, a lot of nice cars down there. I was suprised just how many people brought the cars down. Saw quite a few MBs down there not sure what...
I have a 99 C220 CDI. Never use any diesel treatment before and thought i will give it go. I poured some Redex Diesel Treatment into the fuel tank yesterday as it says at the back of the bottle. Driving today, find that the car is running abit smoother:). But, seems to be im losing fuel:eek...
Saw these 2 nice Mbs in Primrose Hill yesterday.
The SL below was fantastic! Maybe the nicest coindition one I've ever seen!!
And this lovely E Class coupe - I'm really starting to like these... :)
Was this anyone on here? I was in my C55... the car was lowered and de badged and so close to my rear end in the outside lane at 80 mph that I could see all the details of the ugly mug driving. Idiot..... I just pulled over and let him pass until he had to slow down for roadworks.
Sorry for the...
I just noticed that the most members on the forum in one day appears to have been yesterday @ 851.
Just emphasises the popularity of this place. :D
Nice one
Apologies if already posted .......................
First time in about 7 weeks (since I got the Aston its sat in the garage) but it was a nice day and I always think cars need a run now and again so off to North Wales we went.
First thing that always impresses me is the ride, compared to the stiff CLS and the stupidly crashy DB9 the SL is a...

I was looking at getting the 54 onwards year based on the newer Nav system but this one came up at a great price that i couldnt refuse. So am i able to upgrade the nav unti...

On my way to lunch yesterday I was stuck in slow moving traffic on the A420 when an idiot in the nearside lane cut me up nearly taking the front end off. I tooted the horn to indicate my displeasure so he deliberately slowed and stared at me in his rear view mirror so I imperiously waved him...
It seems the comand thieves are out and about in Woking. One of my business partners had his Comand ripped out of his W203 yesterday whilst in Woking train station car park. So beware if you are around here.......
Made a nasty mess of the interior.:(
My bet it was the chavs seen tearing...
Some may remember my last thread about looking for a W124 estate, well I eventually went for a 1991 model from Pistonheads for £650, with 203k on the clock and Mostly mercedes main dealer service history up to about 180k.
It never had any problems on my 320+ mile drive home and seemed...
Downloaded and installed an update yesterday. When I turned my PC on today, there were all sorts of problems, chief of which was Microsoft saying my Vista copy was not genuine when I went to the help pages.
FINALLY got back to a system restore and it seems OK at the moment
Did anyone else...
Yesterday evening at about 5.00pm I had to call out Mobilo as the car was leaking coolant all over the place by the time I got home.
They told me that they would not be able to send a Merc technician at that time but they could have the car recovered by an external recovery company and taken...
Within 5 minutes of each other at about 4.20pm I was passed (on the A21 just outside Tunbridge Wells, Kent, travelling towards the M25) by an SL65 (620bhp?)and an E63.
Pretty rare cars and the only examples of each I've probably ever seen. Can't remeber the registrations though I think the SL...
