What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

[LostKiwi]

Packed it ready for the Normandy GTG.

Mrs LK has given me stacks of stuff to take over (I did tell her it's an r230 not a 210 estate but the message seems not to have been understood).
In the pile of stuff is a high chair, stair gate, fairy liquid (they have shops in France FFS), books, a pedal bin (see above), a plant (see above), ornaments (see above) and the kitchen effing sink! (or so it seems)...

What is it with 3 Series drivers?

On my way home tonight on the dual carriageway and we're all doing 30mph in both lanes, bumper to bumper traffic and this tw*t who I might add, I am already a bonnet length alongside, just indicates and damn near turns right into my lane.

Needless to say I have to stamp on the brakes quite hard to avoid a collision and he looks at me with the "and what expression", when I toot the horn.

Do they go to w*nker school or something?

Perhaps it's just a natural trait that seems to draw them to B*W's

Audi A3 drivers are just as bad if not worse Jim

Whispers gently, "but I've never had any issues with A3 drivers, however, if you want to slag off A4 and A6 drivers?"

Gets coat, ready to run.

Remember to slow down to 30mph, if you're going to fold the roof down, with all this stuff on it ...

Why .....if I go faster I might not need to unpack as much

Bristol to Coventry for a conference at the Ricoh Arena and back again today with absolutely no issues at all. Car stops really well in a straight line with the new brake lines fitted and there is a remarkable lack of road noise thanks to the new tyres.

Averaged 42mpg and 49mph despite all the flippin' road works.

Happy days

Why the stair gate?!?

Why the stair gate?!?

I think there's a story coming here

I guess the French don't sell them for health and safety reasons?



Mercedes SL500 R231

Cursed the person at Mercedes who decided that it would be a good idea to put a pressed stainless steel slam panel across the front of the W213 E Class.

It probably looks good when initially fitted but, after a few hours, starts to tarnish and then, with a bit of weathering, starts getting pitted and looks awful.

2 hours on the thing yesterday as I had to remove all the air intake to get underneath and avoid leaving lines. I'm on it again today to try and remove some more of the scabbiness...

Got a trailer?

When I kayaked the Colorado through the Grand Canyon, we had 1.5tons of beer for 14 people and 17 nights, but were limited to what we could fit in rafts. Each day a drag net with allotted number of cans was thrown overboard to chill for the day ready for the evening.
