    How to clean pop down reversing camera when on your own?

    Well as an estate model, I was thinking just pop the tailgate open and climb into the back to avoid going out via the window after engaging reverse, avoids the being run over risk. I should have it cleaned and be back in before it hits the service station at the other end of the car park. :)

    How to clean pop down reversing camera when on your own?

    Hello, With the sticky crud that coats the car in the winter months the pop down reversing camera on the W213 was a blurry mess. How can I get it to stay down so I can wipe the lens when i'm nobby no mates, in the middle of nowhere? The Hounds in the back render the rear view mirror for display...

    Speeding in France warning! Roll On Brexit!

    Hello JDPE, Sorry no source. It was in the MCN and various motorcycle mags few years ago. Then went quiet as no one was reporting getting tickets. I believe the fine in France is on a sliding scale to 1500 euros depending on your percentage over the speed limit inc 10% for errors. ie 58 in a 50...

    I remember fords fanfare and blurb for spending millions designing the focus interior. Yet it looked like it had been lifted straight from the 323f.

    Speeding in France warning! Roll On Brexit!

    Garmin says "Dangerous Zone" which has an area slightly larger than the original speed camera warning area. Don't forget the yellow vest in the car, the spare bulbs, the breath analysers, the triangle, sun cream and little man with the red flag. More sinister is the speed average cameras that...

    Speeding in France warning! Roll On Brexit!

    The agreement has been in place for a few years to allow tracing and issuing European speed fines. Unfortunately they have just unblocked the channels of communication. Think theres still an issue with Points. A few I know are now getting French speed tickets from 2017 & 18 to their uk address...

    Ex V70 man.

    Hello all. I recently acquired a E220D W213 following long V70 ownership. Giving as Volvo, like most car makers now consider "stretched hatchbacks" to be "estate" cars. Best of luck getting the wardrobe in the back or a medium sized dog, so I jumped ship. Having said that, the E has a...

    Do these wheels/tyres fit? Read this post first!

    E220D AMG Line S213. Will 18" Wheels fit? Hello, I am looking to get a set of winter wheels following the 'smaller rim, deeper wall' philosophy. Unfortunately I keep seeing mixed data. Some say 18" ok & some say No. Looking at the gap with large front callipers on the existing 19" wheels I...
