Thanks to the untiring efforts of Motec 6.9, I am able to show the performance data as published at the time. Regards Styria http://www.automobile-catalog.com/car/1971/1567745/amg_300_sel_6_3.html N.B. It is of quite importance that the link hereunder be included as part of this road test...

I have been wanting to publish, or make available, the genuine workshop details about a subject much misunderstood, or we simply do not have the knowledge to get the system to work properly. Of course, it doesn't help if parts are no longer available, or alternatively, are priced at such levels...

Okay, so it is a Citroen with the V6 Maserati engine, and it is one car that BenzBoy would like to take a fancy to if given the opportunity. I have seen them in real life, in fact there was one at the recent Eastern Creek Classic Rallye, and I would like to dig out the photos that I took. I must...

Last few years, especially ever since attending Eastern Creek Rallies, I have become quite impressed by the sheer, shall we call it. vulgar beauty of American cars. The ones featured here are probably nothing special in any particular way, but nevertheless they still impress with their sheer...

Certainly well worth investigating FULLY and gaining a huge amount of information. Give yourself just a little bit of time. Regards Styria http://www.flickr.com/photos/skitmeister/5358879758/in/photostream/

Nice video, with plenty of useful and interesting information. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z0_Y_yPXa0&feature=related

This is an extensive review and road test (to a lesser extent) copied from the interstate magazine "Winding Road". Regards Styria http://www.windingroad.com/articles/news/first-look-2012-mercedes-benz-c63-amg-coupe/

The background information in the manufacturing is quite astonishing - I wonder though if it is worth the asking price. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjigOY5FEAM&feature=related Regards Styria

Anthony, you're finally getting a reply to your post. The ratchet ring spanners - I have a set of those, but they are adorning my tool wall (?) - not sure what to call it. The claw sockets - invaluable, and absolutely necessary. If you look closely in the main tool box in the 'other' thread -...

Well, Photobucket has decided to co-operate - well, it did on Saturday, the last time that I checked the PC for its operation. So let me see what else needs to be taken on our mythical 2000 kms. trip. Toolwise, I'd want to take a set of wrench operated Allen keys, also a set of small sockets...

I have indeed been fortunate enough, and privileged, to be driven some twenty to thirty kilometers in the new SLS AMG Sports Car - Supercar ? Surely yes. Yet, however, disregarding its undoubted heritage and breeding, and performance of course, there is something lacking. In my eyes, to be...

I am just not quite sure if I haven't posted a thread on this magnificent car elsewhere on TK. I have seen these in real life - their size, and imposing appearance, are just mind boggling - beyond comprehension really. Regards Styria N.B. On account of its size, the file is being revised and...

See attached PDF file. Regards Styria

Hi everyone, is this the sister car to the one owned by Benz Boy and everyone has been looking for ? Stranger things have happened. Regards Styria

6.9s, and probably other cars as well, should be driven without fear of breakdown. As I have stated, as well as Helmet, a well maintained vehicle will do that sort of trip easily. Items like belts, oils etc. are easily checked and, whatsmore, their condition(s) are very obvious. Radiator hoses a...

Anyway, we can't wait for the PC to make up its mind. Thus, let me talk about - THE STORY ON HORNS _________________________________________________________________ For many months now, none of the horns on Gleaming Beauty worked. For the uninitiated, or not knowing, later model 6.9s were...

If you were to embark on a two thousand kilometre round trip, what tools and spare parts would one deem advisable to carry ? A recent break down experience really opened my eyes. I'd be very keen to obtain input on this matter. Regards Styria

To continue my journey - just some pics to start off with. Okay, the second picture illustrates the area beside the fusebox and under the brake servo unit. Luckily, it was free of rust, but obviously quite decrepid and dirty looking and for those not familiar with GB's history, she used...

With a mileage reading of 179,195, I decided that it was high time to carry out some maintenance and some unfinished work going back to when Gleaming Beauty was off the road being repainted and refurbished. I had put on an additional five thousand miles since recommissioning her after the...

BenzBoy, unfortunately, I did not get to the All British Day this year. I think I have seen the car you refer to in times gone by - yes, beautifully restored, but I do baulk at this "strictly" non standard colour. Regards Styria
