Good Morning - I have just joined the Forums here depsite being an Aussie living in the US and having gotten tired of the arrogant and sarcastic US MB Forums or those that have no activity.

Anyway, sorry for that but thought an explaination was in order. I own a 2007 E350 with AMG and Avangarde Packages and absoultely love it for all the right reasons, reliability, luxury, economical, powerful (for a V6) and finally - European Engineering. Really, what isn't to love?

The main reason I joined the forums was to obtain help and advice when needed and to, hopefully, at some point help others in need. Anyway, I look forward to being an active member here as well as receiving help and advice as needed.

Welcome - this is one of the best forums and any sarcasm on here is usually good natured and not at all malicious.

I can't remember any sarcasm. I think the last argument was in 2016. If you don't count the Rugby World cup.

Or the Supermarket Loyalty Cards thread! By sarcasm, I was thinking more about the saga of @00slk 's aftermarket swimming pool

Firstly, sorry for the delay in responding and thanks everyone for your welcomes. I am glad to hear that these are good natured, mature forums with, from the looks, a good sense of humour as well. Now to try to find my way around

Question please - why does my avatar all of a sudden have that "OP" thing across it and what is it?

OP - means you started the thread - Original Poster

@Blobcat

Ahh, thanks - thought it may have meant something like "On Probation" or something

Ah, every days a school day, thought it meant you where on line.

Nice to know I wasn't the only one a bit mistyfied. As you said/suggested - we live and learn

That wasn't really an argument. More a case of one member not understanding everyone has a right to an opinion.
