Right, where do I begin!!!


Firstly, I havent been overly active with the CLS over the last months, just simply getting on with little bits here and there mainly down to continual growth of the business etc so getting more and more cars coming in all the time.


The main bits that I have done, is just get it to a better standard! Changing bits that weren't up to my standard or I felt can be better.


On the whole, the car is pretty much the same!


Lets catch up with show season...


Shows attended this year were;


DC (Best Mercedes)

Players Classic

Modified Nationals

Westside

Ace Cafe German and Passionford Meets

All Dubs


Cant remember any others!


So some pics through the season...

So thats show season done! We were meant to go to Show and Glow, but after hearing the weather was meant to be bad, I decided to give it a miss and had a nice day off instead!


Now, onto the bits that I have changed!


Due to the EXCESSIVE camber I run (was measured at over 4degrees!) and the Toe settings being out, my front tyres shredding themselves in around 1500 miles!! Painful especially on a set of Bridgestones! I wanted to change them regardless however due to wanted to trim down the tyre size a tad as I couldnt drive the car as low as I wanted on the front.


Tyre size has now gone from 235/35 to 225/35. Im MUCH happier with the new toe settings and the 225's as the steering is like a feather now!


Check the insides of the tyre!!!

Next up was a service! I havent serviced the car since I bought it and felt like doing it just to keep on top of it...The previous owner/garage said they had just serviced it before I got it....all I can say is LIARS!!!! I dont think this is the state of an air filter after less than 5000miles!
