1992 r129
Hi. New to MBW. Taking in a 92 R129 with about 100,000 miles on it and have spent the last few days learning about the platform and shopping for new fluids filters and some basic rubber components which I am looking forward to doing the work(I can do some basic work, lol).

Hoping to find a good set of used 18" wheels on the marketplace to replace the factory 16" wheels.

Any direction is welcome as I continue this new journey!

Prefacelift 97" e320
Hello

G'day
I thought I'd join up to get some inspiration for my new ride is a 97" e320.
I have always liked the shape of the w210 and when I saw one at the right price I jumped on it.
I will be driving it around "as is" for a while but future plans will include a turbo, L.S.D and aftermarket ECU.

Cheers
David.

New to this forum, have some MB experience.

Hello everyone. I own a 2002 CLK430 and 2002 C240. Since repairing my own cars has become a must financially I decided I better get involved in a like minded community. I hope I can be of some help as I'm sure this forum will be a great asset to me.

I have a 2009 ML63. I have also spent A LOT of money on repairs. I would REALLY appreciate help on were to post about ( no heat in my suv, unless I’m driving at 60mph) I think it might be air in my coolant line... but I have tried to bubble that out, with no success!!! If you could help me on this issue I would greatly appreciate it!

2012 CLS550
Relatively New Acquisition 2012 CLS550

I picked up a 2012 CLS550 that I have been loving for almost a year now. My previous vehicle was the 2009 S550, which is now my Mom's. Not great pics at all because I took then in the garage, but this is the cars. I really love the M278 twin turbo engine. I have lowered the CLS slightly and did the OE Tuning stage 1 tune and wow... this thing really performs! Handling is also exceptional.

My Mom owned a 93 400SEL for many years, and my first cars were an 83 300D and then an 86 300SDL. Nice to be back to Mercedes.

2014 C63 AMG Sedan (W204) | 2015 Mustang GT PP Supercharged FBO E85
1st German Car

Hi all,

My name is Zain and I just picked up a 2014 C63 AMG Sedan a couple of weeks ago. I've been browsing the forums for a while now while doing research before buying the car. Super excited and want to be a long time owner. It's completely stock but I do want to turn it into a FBO car for the street as it is my daily driver. I named her Harley, after the Maid of Mischief lol.

GL 450
New member - trailer questions

New to the MB world. Picked up a clean used 2015 GL450, and am looking to get my miata back on the track in the spring. Looking at an enclosed trailer to house everything so I can just hook it up and go to track without having to load up everything from the garage. Ideally I think 7x16 vnose would be perfect but finding it has been tough. Wondering how large I can go. Knowing the load won't be more than 3k lbs, I am considering going to 8.5x20 which weighs about 3500lba empty. Any thoughts....

W204 c63
Hello,
new member. I am mostly interested in making my c63 w204 reliable for track day events over the long term, which to me means perhaps an additional trans cooler, better oil cooling and if necessary rear diff cooling and better power steering cooling.

Thank you all in advance for any help or knowledge offered.
