  I've been toying with the idea of buying a van for the business that will "double-up" as a family car for the weekend if necessary, (usually use SWMBO's...
• London to Edinburgh on a Tankfull 5 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  It revolves around whether a Smart car could drive from London to Edingurgh on a single tank of fuel. The ASA has now allowed the claim by Mercedes-Benz to stand. Isn't ther a very simple way of proving - or otherwise - the validity of this claim? I would be prepared to do the run for them, all expenses paid , of course.

• Looking for a Car for SWMBO 4 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  It also needs to be reasonably high for ease of access, but preferably not a 4x4. I'm thinking about a Mercedes Benz B Class which seems to tick all the right boxes, but any other suggestions would be welcome. Also any feedback on B Class ownership would be appreciated

• Clean diesel to dirty for USA 2 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  The US is a strange place - all those gas guzzling cars that sell like hot cakes (although not so much now) and yet a super clean Bluetec diesel from Mercedes is to dirty to sell in certain of the US states. >>Mercedes-Benz's much trumpeted E320 Bluetec diesel has failed to meet the emissions standards required for sale in green-minded California and four other states in the USA.
• Mercedes-Benz SportCoupé Kompressor - Too Shiny For Me 19 Apr 2017 (Forum)
    My protests that I knew nothing about new cars were brushed aside, since the car was "very old". Turned out to be a 15 year old dealer-maintained Mercedes-Benz C 230 (I think) SportCoupé Kompressor, and a bit of a looker, as was its owner. The problem as described seemed to be it getting unsettled by truck wakes on the freeway, and the owner had a very big quote to fix from the dealer, though I doubt Mercedes dealers do any other kind of quote.
• "Over-engineered" Mercs of old 17 Dec 2009 (Forum)
  It has often been said in the motoring press that Mercedes-Benz do not build their cars like they used too; that they are no longer 'over-engineered'. I'm intrigued to know exactly what is meant by this and if there is a definite point at which one can say that things went downhill.

• *** HELP Merc C320 (2002) Wipers *** 1 Mar 2006 (Forum)
  My wipers stopped working all of a sudden. When I try to use them, i can hear the motor at work, but the wipers won't budge. Mercedes Benz inspected my car and gave me an estimate of £450 (£120 for the motor and the rest is labour; full of duress). Many forums suggest that the wipers may have simply snapped off the motor. But I don't know how to even get the turtle shell off the engine beneath the hood.
