  1. Since seeing it in a vintage Classic & Sportscar magazine many years ago, I've thought this shot was cool. Mike Hawthorne and Tommy Sopwith are seen in the photo, who was taken at Silverstone in 1958. The two Jaguar 3.4 litre saloons are wildly pitching as they speed around a bend. The tradition originated in the days when Formula One racers would take their cars to a saloon car event, drive them home, and then compete in the next weekend's race.
  2. I like it. I intend to follow suit. Kindly share an image.
  3. As per Wikipedia, the final one was manufactured in June 1982. Although the majority were resolved by 1983, a minuscule number of overlooked or sluggish dealer inventory remained unregistered until 1984 or 1987. Historical DVLA records aggregated by enthusiast organisations meticulously document the precise number of these recent irregularities: [1] Registrations in 1984: 139 vehicles In 1985, there were 68 vehicle registrations. 1986 recorded entries: 62 automobiles 1987 recorded entries: 9 automobiles
  4. Indeed, consistently at intervals. Even when Mi-Drive is deactivated, the electric motor replenishes the 48-volt battery, in addition to regenerative braking. I am of the opinion that the 48-volt battery is replenished during coasting without fuel and, naturally, while braking. I seldom examine that power flow diagram. It is somewhat of a ploy.
  5. You might be conflating the turbo boost with the Mi-Drive 48-volt battery enhancement. There exist two markedly dissimilar techniques to enhance engine horsepower. The turbo operates independently while the Mi-Drive is engaged by the operator. It is imperative that you consult the vehicle's manual.
  6. That is not the operational mechanism of my 2026 MHEV.
  7. It is possible that the 48-volt battery has ceased to function. Neither a depleted battery nor a malfunctioning cell should occur. Do you consistently operate it in M mode?
  8. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152699627671?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338181125&toolid=10001&customid=2518X1570512X34f6c9584bfce7f1d097ca77faf6f334&subId2=15
  9. Defeating the dealers is not an easy task. If you are in the UK, I hope a strongly worded letter referencing the Consumer Rights Act would be enough.
  10. Since these are not stretch bolts, you can reuse them provided you get the correct part and keep it straight. But it seems like it hasn't followed the exact fitting sequence that is required.
  11. Brake parts for an AMG must be rather pricey, right?
