Its been a while since I've been here and I've had quite a few cars. I did have a Type R FN2 that lasted 6 months before I ruined the brakes then got rid of it. I had a CLA for a while too but got bored of that. In the end I traded in my E-Class, the plan was to get the new A35 AMG but the...
The A15 between the north of Lincoln and the M180 is deadly. I've had many an idiot try and overtake at the last minute. Not bothered by it myself as I will always be the one who would survive in a head-on as I'm normally driving a Volvo FH. Some businessmen's Audi isn't going to stand a chance...

Thanks guys! I was given a saloon e350d as a courtesy car while my A was in for some repairs. While it was very fast, it reinforced why I'm not a fan of saloon models. Its a shame that the pics don't show it popping but they were taken from Karspa's facebook page and then they were taken with a...
My mothers 64 plate 3008 had a faulty park brake. Turns out the wiring loom was spilt. They replaced it completely under warranty and its been ok since.
I'll miss the A-Class but the ride is quite hard and the road noise is pretty intrusive. Still, it was fun to throw about in Sport Mode. I honestly don't know what magic Mercedes have got in that E Class but I'm getting better fuel economy in the E than I ever did in the A.
I was first looking at the C Class but after specing all the options that I wanted as the price was getting close to what an E Class was and most of the kit was standard anyway. The C's interior didn't look that much better than my A-Class whereas the E looks more refined. Had a sit in the S...
Picked it up yesterday and dropped into Karspa in Lincoln for a coating and touch up today. Brand new 17 plate E220d, AMG and this time I delved a little deeper in my wallet for the LED headlights! Last time I posted my A-Class I got bashed for not having the LED's.
I got 9 grand...
My Merc has two USB ports. If you're complaining about USB ports, get something like this.

Who uses the cig lighter anymore?
We run half and half with 2 Daf XF's thrown in. The 11 plate Volvo's like mine are standard 460 Globetrotters, the 12 plated are Globetrotters with 480's. There is a few 13/63 plates that run 480's with the XL cab. There is 4-5 Mrk 4 FH's that all run 500's with an extra fuel tank. The boss gets...
The 460 is a bit weak at 44ton but it quite happy on the flat. Cruises along at 57 no problem. I went from driving crappy Scanias G series so the Volvo feels much nicer to live in. Those 3 pedal Opticruises are crap.
