    Test Drive - 126 Coupes

    No doubt, these are absolutely beautiful cars, especially the ones with the individual back seats. I am sorry that the audio is non-English - I am not even certain what language, but I suspect Polish, Czech, Russki whatever. Can anyone pick the city ? I like the video for reasons that I can...

    6.9 and S6.3

    Spotted this nice little feature on the internet. There are even 14 pictures to go with the article, but no video. Mind you, somewhere in our archives, we do have a video featuring the very same cars. Needless to say, it wasn't that much of a contest. Still, 6.9, in the '70s, a formidable motor...

    Battery Wear Indicator

    Over the years, I have seen it time and again. An indicator that the battery has a somewhat limited life span. Sure enough, it will keep on starting your car, and you may listen intently - is everything sounding right ? Do you have your doubts regarding the state of the battery ? I reckon I...

    German 6.9

    Interesting looking 6.9 for sale in Germany - at that price, and considering the market in Germany, this looks like a bit of a bargain. Regards Styria http://www.autoscout24.de/Details.aspx?id=233886249

    Engine oil leaks

    Yes Sir, for many months now GB has been suffering from a variety of oil leaks, ranging from the Auto Trans area, to hydraulics in the area under the oil reservoir, plus engine oil leaks that seemed to be everywhere, and I mean everywhere. The hydraulic leak I eliminated, finally, by the...

    6.9 - Changing engine oil

    If one keeps it simple, the job is straight forward - well, at least, you would think so. Two ways of doing it - depending on facilities at your disposal, and the amount of care you want to put into it. I'll go the simple way first, assuming you don't have a lifting hoist - in other words...

    Canberra Summernats

    I have often heard about the meet,, have seen some photos, heard Michel talking about this fabulous event, and eventually I managed to attend the one open now. Plenty of noise, huge crowds, plenty of dust when the wind was blowing, and an absolute eye opener. So, I thought I would share with...

    History of Mercedes Benz

    A most enlightining video of the company's history. However, just one little snippet I find curious - the use of the non-existent word 'Grosser' in its referral to the Chassis 100 of the M100 (6.3) 600 model. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2jmfbtSJUo Regards Styria

    Absolutely unique and smashing. Where will it all end, what borders can be crossed. Unbelieveable. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rtg-77nLOVg

    Audi a6 all road

    I wonder just how different it is when compared to the RS6 Avant ? Getting to be a bit like Mercedes - so many models to choose from.

    Audi s3

    Another contender from Audi-the S3. I have always been a little suspicious of Audis, but there is no doubt that in Austria they probably outsell Mercedes Benz. My sister-in-law's son in law owned one, and it gave better service than a 2001-220 Mercedes Diesel. However, you only need to look at...

    Mercedes SL 65 AMG

    Just a short, revealing drive, with some pertinent comments. Regards Styria

    Porsche 911 & panamera

    I just think that the Panamera is totally ' super' - saw one that had been bequeathed to the NSW Police Force at the German Day - what a machine. I am still eating my heart out. When I asked Mr. Policeman what were his impressions, he told me that he was not allowed , nor had he ever attempted...

    Peugeot 208

    The French are building some interesting cars these days - including Peugeot. Mind you, though, some could be placed in the same basket as other Europeans - I am not so sure but, whatsmore, I could well be incorrect. Regards Styria

    Mercedes E300 HYBRID

    Hybrid is becoming all the fashion nowadays - extra power, better fuel economy (?), more complexity ? Anyway, it is a Mercedes, so I find it (well, will find it) of great interest to read. Regards Styria

    Megane RS250 Renault

    I have seen a few of these on the road. Just the looks tell you that it is something very special. Wonder how it would compare with the Focus or the Cosworth Impreza ? I must find out what the men in "white" have written. In the meantime, please enjoy -BTW, it's Christmas Day, a little bit of...

    RS6 AVANT by Audi

    I recall Michel telling me some years ago of an overseas friend owning an earlier version of this model. Apparently, an absolute, rock solid, fantastic handling beast of a flying machine. If it's good enough for the Prince, it's good enough for me. Regards Styria

    Focus RS500 vs. Impreza Cosworth

    Can't help but feeling a tingle of excitement to read the comparison between these two 'Flying Machines'. From the little I know, the exhaust noise generated by the Subarus are simply toxic, whilst the Focus ? Don't know how it sounds - but, I'd love to have each in my garage. Regards Styria
