ML320 W163 2000
Hi irighti/don, I know how you feel, My 2000 ML320 has a fair few things not working too, I'd only borrowed it for a week just before it was being traded in and 'kidnapped' it, as it was so much fun to drive! Some things seem to work one week, and not the next. The engine, transmission and 'brains' seem all to be fine, but it is the 'cosmetic' things that don't work!

Cheers,

Steve (Cumbria, England)

Hi chaps,
Fresh face to the fold, I'm Colin and I have owned a '97 W210 E230 Classic estate for a couple of years now, what a fantastic workhorse/ motorway muncher it is.
I will be needing advice from the knowledgeable of you on here as it has a few minor issues starting to show now and I really don't want to part with it yet.
I hope this forum to be as friendly as the UKS Saabs forum I have been involved with for some years now, their help has been invaluable to me in keeping my 2 Saab c900 Turbos on the road and curing the idiosyncrasies that were built in.

cheers chaps, Colin.

GLK 320CDI
OLDBIE but newbie to the forum

Hello,

I am happy to join this group. I have been a Mercedes lover since the last 30 years. Own a 1988 300D which is still running around like a strudy work-horse. Purchased a 4 year old GLK 320 CDI 4M recently and am very happy with it. Has 60,000 kms on board. The GLK is like new, even the leather upholstery has the nice new smell. Powerful engine!

I live in France in the Auvergne region where we have plenty of mountains and lakes. Ideal home for the GLK.

Have a nice time all of you .............

Ram

2008 SLK350
Hi all

New here just got 2008 slk 350 still trying to get familiar with it. Fantastic car. Probably ask questions that have been ask thousands of times. Everyone have a great day and thanks for the wealth of information. Some items I cant find is the dealer said it has navigation and has seen it work but I only have a single slot system. They cant find or have the right cd and have ordered one. Do the seats flip up for access. The fuse compartment doesn't list what fuse is what.

Thanks for any help if you have any computer or network question, I could answer those better.

1984 190E
Hello list,

My name is Jason, I'm a total MB neophyte & temporary caretaker of a 1984 190E. Spent just a few minutes lurking and liked what I saw here, as I've already found a useful thread about my c-pillar trim.

Looking for my first MB
Looking for my first Benz

Greetings from Santa Clara, CA!

Hello, this is Jerald and I recently decided on having that MB experience. I'm looking for an early 2000's E55 AMG or CLK55 AMG to get started. I joined this forum in order to learn more about these models, what to look out for, and how to budget for the ownership of a pre-owned Benz.

Best regards,
Jerald

Newbie checking in

Hello. My name is Mike and I am new to this board. Currently I do not own a MB. However, I plan on changing that this spring. I am looking to get a CPO W212 E550 sedan. My dream car would be an AMG E63 wagon as I am usually the chauffer in the house and thus carry a lot of other peoples stuff to and fro. I look forward gaining knowledge about how to go about purchasing a CPO car.
