    £345 a year for a 1991 2.6 190E . My other two are free as around 60 years old each . i class the free ones as my way of justifying the amount on the Merc which is way less than many pay on here . its a money making exercise by the gubbermint pure and simple

    Didnt know until today that Chrysler US did a stand alone brand called Imperial in 55 to 75 then again in 81 to 83 . They were the size of small asteroids

    Recently bought a 190E 2.6 Sportline . stunning to drive , feels solid and handles real well , being a 2.6 its a bit thirsty but il live with this if only for the joy of driving it

    They are all plastic now , i have found ten 8A and ten 25A proper ceramic ones at a local garage though , still need the 16A ones . yep mine just corroded on one end , looked perfect at a glance

    Decent ones are actual ceramic , modern crap ones are thermoplastic rubbish , no they arnt supposed to melt

    So this is why the Hazards didnt hazard and a few interior lights didnt get bright . didnt spot it just looking as the fuse aint blown

    More Merc mayhem This time disassembly and re greasing the mono wiper . Its been running slow and sometimes refuses to operate . Absolutely no grease in there whatsoever save for the remains of some sticky goo .
