Hints and tips that I've picked up along the way!!!

[Seymour]

Due to pick up our SLK in two weeks time. (Can't wait).
Currently own VVC MGF (Nightfire red) that we will sorely miss when she is sold, but.......

Here are a list of helpful sites that we picked up on the way that you may or may not find helpful on a generic basis. (I'm not linked to any sites or companies).

If words like clay, glaze and sealant are not in your cleaning vocabulary, but sponge, washing up liquid and T-Cut are, then you may find the following 5 links useful.

• Clean Your Car - car care products UK
• The forum is very good and you can get good feedback about various products even you can source it cheaper elsewhere.

• Detailing Paradise
• More detailing forums and a useful infomation site

• Detailing World - A world for detailers by detailers.
• Probably the daddy of them all as far as detailing/cleaning/maintainance of body work

• ** Swirl Removal By Hand - Test ** - Detailing World
• Just a useful link about those blasted swirls

• Car Care, Car Covers and Accessories - More Than Polish
• How very true!!!

• Mercedes Benz Tyres - tyre reviews, the online tyre guide
• One of two good sites that provide useful information on recommended tyres and forum feedback

• Mercedes Car Tyres - Reviews, Tests and Tyre Information | Blackcircles.com
• Do you agree or disagree with the suggested selections?

• Talk Audio
• "Does exactly what it says on the tin" and the dealer directory may prove a good starting point

• Car Audio Equipment - caraudiowarehouse.co.uk
• Source for equipment and bitz

How does the forum feel about remapping ECUs

• Mercedes ML 2010 ECU Remapping Review (*** Tuning) - Mercedes-Benz Owners' Forums
• Mercedes Benz ECU Remapping & chipping, performance tuning, economy tuning, Huntingdon, St Ives, St Neots, Cambridge, Peterborough, Ely, Newmarket

As I say, just a few of the type of sites that I've (had) looked into for working on the MGF but will remain useful for the MB.

Any others I should consider

I hope the URL links work.

Moving from an MGF to a SLK, you are going to know what build quality really is!!!!

I used to own a MGF many moons ago and went to a TT, I never knew they could build cars that well.
