Former Greater Manchester Blood Bikes Charity Lead Duty Controller and Trustee Barrie Green posted the following on social media: "It has finally occurred, and you wouldn't believe it. Heidi Alexander, the transport minister, had her vehicle towed away after a HUGE pothole near Oxford damaged her tires. Alexander then placed the blame on local councils and the current ruling Liberal Democrats for the lack of road maintenance. She threatened to cut funding to councils unless they met their targets for fixing potholes. This is not fiction, folks. For all the drivers out there who have been crunched, banged, or smacked into a bloody pothole, here is some justice at last. Now that you can take a moment to revel in this glory, I hope you all have a good day and be careful on those roads! Ha ha ha, I'm sorry, but this really made my morning!

I spent much too much time trying to figure that one out! 🤣🤣

Beyond the steering wheel, are there any additional parts that must be exchanged in order for it to reside in the UK?

My French parents are letting me pick up their 1981 W123 230e LHD. The vehicle has always been a part of our family, but now that my mother has dementia, she has handed it on to me. Tax documentation and import paperwork completed. The headlights need to be switched to right-hand drive. Please tell me what to search for since there seem to be a lot of options (H4 being one example).

Regrettably, the 2008 SL I refer to lacks a filler cover on the reservoir, representing further regression by Mercedes-Benz.

Essentially, when I performed the task, there was a significant accumulation of dust and grit in the regions where the seals interfold. I was informed that there is no official service for the hydraulic pump itself; it is likely acceptable to use it within the warranty term, but all hydraulic fluid deteriorates over time. I have observed online DIY methods involving the creation of an aperture in the top of the hydraulic reservoir, since drilling may risk introducing plastic debris into the tank, followed by extracting the oil with a syringe and replenishing it. Rubber or silicone bung, task completed. It may not be necessary for an eight-year-old vehicle, contingent upon the frequency of the roof's operation.

Is this an R231? What is the mileage and age? Have you completed the roof sealing service?

Thank you for your response – I sincerely appreciate it. I attempted to utilise the key to operate the boot several times, and miraculously, it resumed functionality. Remarkably peculiar! It has been functioning adequately since that time; therefore, I remain hopeful that it will continue to do so.

Greetings to all I possess a 2003 CLK that I have kept for an extended period, and it has consistently performed well; nevertheless, as it ages, I anticipate an increase in potential concerns. This morning, I dropped the children off at school and observed that the trunk would not open using the handle release. I activated the boot release button within the vehicle, and it opened successfully. Upon returning home, I attempted once more, although the handle remained inoperative. Curiously, the boot release button within the vehicle no longer illuminates or functions, and the remote key also fails to unlock the boot. I must operate the key manually. Although I am uncertain of any correlation, my wife, who was waiting in the car after my shopping trip yesterday, remarked that the vehicle appeared to be locking itself autonomously. Has anyone encountered a similar experience? Where should I commence my search? Any feedback would be very valued. Thank you in advance.

Regarding the lights, if you have not yet done so, it is advisable to verify that the vehicle is configured for 'left-hand traffic' in the onboard menu. If configured for right-hand traffic, the ILS will be inoperative.

No one expressed interest in the low mileage Mercedes SL500; nonetheless, is there any interest in the Jaguar XJ220? https://www.broadarrowauctions.com/vehicles/dg25_r0066/1994-jaguar-xj220 It holds a particular "resonance" for me, as I advised my CEO against purchasing a comparable item for only £95,000 in 1998. He was enticed, although fundamentally, he was more aligned with the Ferrari 355. Horses suited to specific tasks. The primary concern: where can one locate an individual knowledgeable about the Jaguar XJ220? Available for under half a million sterling, inclusive of fees but exclusive of any applicable import charges to the UK. I will decline. 550 horsepower: excessively rapid for Madame Cholet.
