There is a lot of articulation in the chassis, a nicely designed truck. If you wanted an overland machine then look no further, just think where it could go with a decent set of tyres.

To be honest I hadn't noticed the rails were different until you pointed it out.

It should, but the thieves are also aware so use more than one false plate often changing them many times.

It's not for them,it's for the police to identify the cloned vehicle.

The OP wants a way to differentiate his car from the cloned car and a visible marker on the plate is a way of doing so.

To the OP, the best thing you can do is to place a bit of black tape on your numberplate front and rear say in the top right corner. Then take a photograph of your car with the tape attached to the plate, then contact or email the forces where the clone has been used with the picture of your car...

Well I managed to source a set of 17" AMG alloys complete with Contintental tyres. The wheels will require a refurb but as they came with tyres I'm going to run with them for now and maybe have them refurbished in the spring. The wheels are staggered and make a nice upgrade with no discernable...

I have fitted a couple of dash cams in the past and have always managed to get the cable under the trim ( it went on so must come off). Or maybe you could take power from the interior light.

Ah yes, I had 3 on my mx5 a few years back.

Ha, I've been scuppered at the first tyre hurdle, my chosen tyres are unavailable for the rear, so second choice are the Uniroyal Rainsport 3

Ah tyres, well that is a can of worms I'm not opening, I like the Goodyear efficent grip I have now so may get another set of those.

Well I think I may have found a set of 17" AMG Alloys at the right price. Just waiting for confirmation of delivery. Thanks for all the advice and info, much appreciated.

I'm on the search for some now. Looks lovely, I have changed my newer style grill and flush bonnet badge for the slatted grill and upright badge, much prefer the classic look.

I have 16" at the moment but they look a bit lost in the arches hence why I wanted 18" but I never considered 17" I will have a look how they fit the arches.

Thank you, yes I wanted something like those, but the tyre size has me a bit baffled, why would the rear tyres have a lower ratio than the front? I can see there is only 2mm in the rolling radius but does that make a massive difference or was it to change the gearing I wonder? I was looking...

I have just checked and measured my car and you are spot on, the tyres are 39 mm wider which brings them beyond the wheel arch. Many thanks.

Many thanks for the reply. There are many wheel size websites and this one states they will fit...

Apologies for this post, but even with the above data I cannot ascertain if 18" wheels from a 2009 CLS will fit my W204 Estate. There is a slight difference in the ET but does this move the wheel out or inboard? The ET on the 18" AMG W204 Wheels are between 47 and 50, whereas the ET for the...

I toured the north coast of Scotland in September/October a couple of years back and toured Ireland for 8 days with a boot bag on the boot of my MX-5. The weather was horrendous on occasions with heavy rain etc. The boot bag I used was from this company https://boot-bag.com/ It came with a...

Looks like it's been power washed internally.
