Yes John, holiday booked and really looking forward to it :cool:
Trying to get the Missus to come along to this one too, I assured her we don't talk cars!!!! Lots of talk about sewing, gardening, ironing and cleaning, the guys at the PL met are so versatile.............;)

Won't have my sports cats and x-pipe done by then though :(

Generous.....I would think around £250 - £300 as the tyres are getting low. Are they aftermarket of Mercedes wheels, they look aftermarket to me hence my valuation.

Yes, they are after market and your valuation is quite accurate.

You'll want some winter rubber won't you Jim. I wouldn't want to spend the winter on 4mm, particularly in your neck of the woods. :rolleyes:

As soon as I can Andy, No. 1 priority in fact.

Vredestein wintrac extremes are great Jim, as are Dunlop wintersport 3Ds and my current tractor tyres Uniroyal MS77s....

Thanks John, all that's required now is a good Christmas bonus and a visit to the Camskill web site.

No worries don’t discount Oponeo I’ve bought my last 2 sets there and they were marginally cheaper as well as having a network of fitting partners...

Never heard of them before, I'll give them a try, thanks John.

Checked out the web site, surprisingly good. Great tip sir!

Also used them twice, no issues. Just check DOT code of the tyres - they sometimes ship an older manufacture date tyre for a lower price.

Indeed Guy, Mytyres do the same sometimes- rarely makes a difference to me as they won’t be staying 5 years in my company !:D

Just brought it back from my local dealer after being asked to take it in for a recall.

"Check routing of active bonnet sensor hose" was on the letter I received yet, according to MB, it was something to do with a passenger sensor?

Makes no difference to me really, their problem now as it's been in and been checked. They were pretty quick as well today, only managed 2 cups of coffee and 3 biscuits. :(
