  • SL R 230, 350 or 500?

    On the other hand, I am considering replacing our R107 and the C209 with an R230. Does anyone have any experience regarding the running costs / differences between 350 and 500s? From which year of construction is the car recommended? Are special problems known? Of course, a 500 in silver with panoramic roof, Keyless go, little km… Best regards Johannes

  • Doesn’t a tuner put it on the paintwork?

    Hi guys, would you like to know who of you had his car painted completely or it still has to? I was yesterday in Erfurt on a tuning mass and I looked at the whole special paint and with terrifying noticed that there was not a very good paintwork! a good one and the rest was ne note 4-6!!! even with absolutely top airbrushing work was then the clear varnish full of inclusions and craters. Some parts were totally thin painted and a r had a very expensive Cameleon Effektlacquer on it and the whole box was matt! I wouldn’t pay any money for that! Now the two-colour varnishes are in, then the second color was just painted on top and a huge edge to see and feel! Put the all but me no value on a proper paintwork? I am myself a paintr and have just painted the car by a friend after a car from F.uF. Tokyo Drift, it’s really great! you just have to go after the e Regrind the clear coat completely and apply another clear coat so that you don’t feel the transition any more. Does it cost you a bit more material and time! But that should be worth the tuned car or not? MfG Happy

  • Calibra 2.0 85KW consumption and so on……

    Hello, actually come from the Corsa area. But have a few questions to you Calibra riders especially to those who drive a 2.0 with 85KW! Because for an apple and an egg would get a Calibra with 2.0 liters machine. The car has automatic and is BJ. 1994 and has 174 Tkm on the clock. Climate us also has further extras. Now however to the questions: What consumes the car so in the city??? What should one pay special attention to (rust etc….) How long does the M otor on average (with normal care)??? Thank you the-always-laughs

  • Mercedes Benz 300 SL from 1954 versus SLS AMG

    I’m looking for opinions on the new SLS AMG. Is this a pure marketing gag? What edition could the car have? Is it the true successor of the Mercedes 300 SL? Found a cool page here: www.w198.de Looking forward to opinions!

  • SL 500/600

    Hello, I am currently thinking about buying a R 129 500 and I have noticed that 600 he is only slightly more expensive or even cheaper and that with mostly better equipment. But probably the cost of the 600s kills me, I’m not talking about consumption now, I just drive 5x fuelling in the year anyway. I imagine a year 96-2000 as full equipment as possible (incl. hardtop) what else should cost me? or what else do I have to pay attention to except the usual. Or stay i I’d rather go to my W 124 convertible?

    Hello. Need your help. With my Calibra 16 V , year 91 , the following problem has arisen. Window lifter by the driver side without function. Is also no click or any other noise to hear. Thought of switch or engine defective. But exterior mirror adjustment passenger side is also without function. ZV works. Speaker also. What can be that. Mass problem ? Plug / cable apart. What can this be about. Driver side everything. Also mirror adjustment and window lifter. Had before a a few months a lot screwed on the car. Can I have accidentally pulled a plug apart? If so, where? Where on the door wire harness would be such plugs. How would you proceed? Have looked for security. everything in order. Please help me.

I try to hang some pictures with it. maybe mi r here someone say what a BJ (approximately) that is oh yes he has red Recaros in it. from which BJ you get actually a classic car registration due to tax and so ^^ it is a 2.2 GSI engine, is according to data dry and runs well and how looks with typical defects. what is to be taken care of with the price, all right?
