It is yes.

Took a couple of bits out and installed Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. I am over the moon with this. It wasn't cheap but the integration is excellent and it keeps it looking 100% stock. Not for the feint-hearted though as you will need to strip down the head unit and add a new circuit board and...

Took the one in the background to the station to collect the buyer for the one in the foreground. Guy came from Skipton to Maidstone and is currently heading back "oop norf". Hope it does as well for him as it has done me. Glad to know it's going to get used again and also happy to have a...

Sold

I can't see the car you're helping out there :) Hope they didn't mind being towed through that big puddle 😁 I had imagined the story to look much worse in reality but then I've never attempted any of this in mine (not yet anyway) so I've no room to comment! I admire the attempt all the same...

Have a feeling it was 2004/5 from conversations in the past, definitely an early one though. Either way, 12.7 with ignition on is amazing. the 2010> could dream of that!

Over 2million miles and people still swearing these things are unreliable! I get the speaker errors on mine but they all work, perhaps an impedance /resistance issue with age and wear

I must know more now. Spill the beans... please

Been there, done that. I built this utterly pointless thing a fair few years back. Made my life so much harder by wanting it to be over over 2.4m internally and then having to slice the front doors and keep the sunroof etc. Yes, it was stupid, yes it was realistically too heavy to be of...

I think I may have something similar to this on my 3.6 with the air quality fan. It's the one that sorts out the auto record function on the HVAC. I've never bothered with it but it was on the list of jobs for "one day". I've never investigated it any further though so I can't really be of...

That's the US spec sticker (look at the spellings). Looks like they only show the pressures for full load too, can't see the logic there unless it was an amendment for later cars as the OP sticker is dated 2004.

I expect it was a front end damaged car as it would have been crazy to scrap one in seemingly such nice condition and low miles. Were they at peak depreciation in 2009 perhaps? I know it was a breaker that he bought it from.

It's been in for several years now. My favourite part is that the tinted rear window obscures the light in the room so he had to get a desk lamp in there :)

I don't think I've ever posted this here and thought I would share it. I hope you don't view it as sacrilege! A friend of mine has a bit of a P38 as his office desk at home. He contacted a breaker and told them what he wanted to do and they actually cut it, delivered it and helped him...

6x T20 screws from underneath. * Pop out the side trims (upwards) remove 1x T20 on each side * Open centre console and remove 2x T25 then lift out the storage box disconnecting the 12v and MMI this will give you access to 2x T20. * Remove the small plastic trim below the clock to gain...

I cleaned the gear selector dial which is something that I'd been meaning to do since I got it but of course it only appears when the car is running. While I was doing that, it occurred to me that I hadn't removed the cup holders since I bought it (focussing on the repairs first). Removed the...

Great to know that you got there with it.

I can imagine the conversations about fuel economy with you: Stuu: Yeah, I don't really care about the economy of it, I like it. Them: Suppose it doesn't matter if you drive it gently or don't go far? Stuu: "Hold my fuel pump nozzle while I hang 3.5t on the back of this thing!"

I was going to show off after pwood999's comment and say it was further for me but I got shot down here before I even got going :) Good work sir, *approval nod. Always loved the P38, never owned one though... Must. Not. Enquire!

A selection of Mercedes gear selectors? Sorry Jon, couldn't resist that one :cool:
