Your lawnmower looks to be a cut above the rest. Have you had it detailed recently? It looks remarkable shiny. For fear of appearing elitist or in any way showing off, I have refrained from posting a pic of my massive Husqvarna 560 Hover.

FYI. My Ferrari 355 used to shut down one bank. It even had a little light on each side of the binnacle that told you which bank was being shut down. It was caused by the LAMBDA sensors being faulty. Although rather strangely it would only do this at traffic lights with beautiful young ladies looking at the car (or possibly me). As you pulled away with it sounding like a wet fart all hope was lost.

I can only dream of having a Husqvarna 560 Hover....The Mrs says she might allow me to buy one.......But not until we have a lawn

Oh Woody.

I also have the Husqvarna strimmer. Yes the one with handlebars that you gaze longingly at when you see Community Service offenders clearing the motorway verges. It will take either a disc (lethal) or I have a multi head that you can install heavy duty nylon line into. Armed with this you could deforest most of Wales in a few hours.

We should have a GTG at MIKA's gaff and compare our machines. Wait till you see my leaf blower.

It is a very strange concept that on an MB forum, the same small number of small 'individuals' get upset by AMG posts.

Hilarious...

The problem with a lot of C63 posts is they are so boring.

Says the Volvo driver.

Who's upset?

I just find it amusing that the Guys who need to drive a powerful car to boost their ego, also need to panic about every small situation.


A new car under warranty...who gives a flying... if it breaks down, it will get repaired FOC.

I've had loads of new cars and loads of breakdowns...they are just an event, not something to panic over.
Learning to cope with such things is all part of growing up. It will happen someday.

It's fascinating that those who profess to be bored or who are uninterested in C63 threads keep posting on them.

Having been a member of this forum for more years than I care to remember, I find it sad that mbclub has descended into slanging matches, uncontrolled rudeness, hugely unentertaining sarcasm and a sort of gang culture.

What happened to courtesy, politeness and gentlemanly conduct? Is that too last century?
