In the foreground the front wing of an Emerald Black Mercedes C320 - in the background, an obsidian Black example of the same car
Both C320s are black on the logbook, but today had enough light to hint at the difference
Screencap of tweet by Kwasi Kwarteng: "We are delighted to welcome Nigel Farage and @blockchain as strategic investors in Stack. Nigel's long-standing support for British business and his belief that Bitcoin will play an expanding role in global finance align closely with our vision. With Blockchain.com alongside us, we are partnering with a global leader in digital asset infrastructure to ensure the highest standards of custody for our Bitcoin treasury.

How?! How did I do that?

Just outrageous - water bills up AGAIN while sewage spews
There is no competition
There is no market
Privatisation is wasteful - it can only be propped up by increasing your bills
PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW

That's not true, the Mantis Shrimp has 16 receptors because it sees the world in EGA and can't handle the colour mixing.
There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...
Did you know Wes Streeting is limiting the number of NHS training places for doctors, despite the chronic shortage of GPs and hospital doctors in the NHS?
He's a danger to the UK in so many ways.

Feel free to swing by J29 on the M1 and grab some pi(a)zza mats...
Small things, silly things...
When I had my SLKs, A-Class, 500 SEC, 300CE etc. my go to parts supply was online ordering from Inchape. Pretty sure it was run by Andrew Loft & they made DIY-maintaining Mercs so easy.
I owe them thanks. It is not so easy now...

I was hoping for playful susuwatari invasions or at the very least all the makkuro kurosuke departing the exhaust with a skittering noise.

A pair of Mercedes C320 SportCoupes. The foreground car is obsidian black and sold for £800 on eBay. The background car is emerald black and was advertised for £2700 on Car & Classic. I haggled a bit...
The black car already had an Android head unit. Both cars have 107,000 miles on and have the upgraded perforated nappa leather rather than artico interior, and heated seats.
I bought the second car thinking it was good value for spaces but it's got a longer MOT, the sunroof works apart from the rear blind, and it has cheaper tyres. So I'm using it rather than the green one, which I'll fix the roof on.
The 1100 litre boot with seats down is why I didn't just buy another SLK. It has a wide and fairly flat area for loading things.
I get it, I do. If I wanted a nice coupe in 2026 I'd totally pay £8000 and £450 a month to drive a Honda Prelude, to escape the indignity of an £800 banger like this 3.2-litre V6 Mercedes and shoving the PCP payment off the mortgage...
It even has leather on the back seats like some sort of relic.
At the very least the MP salary should be prorata for nige.
But I doubt he'd notice.
Is the DVLA dragging out sending V5s so cars end up taxed in April, or is the post office just not bothering with letters now?
So annoying that changing a cherished number is online all the way but the V5 I'm waiting for post to get a reference to tax a car. You used to be able to do all 3 at a VRO

Link preview failed so here's a screenshot. Scabby wing and headlamp washers without xenon raise eyebrow, but bumpers and wheels are correct if it had AMG option, and it's pre-facelift interior, grille and lights seem right.
Don't need a trailer:
2004 Mercedes C320 SportCoupe - AMG Sport Panorama, 86,000 miles - one of 199 remaining, of less than 540 sold new, in the UK.
Currently £500 and no reserve...

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company
A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.
Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.
This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

Two C320s with faded badges
A close up of the flat Mercedes bonnet badge used for sports models. Almost smooth-worn and no blue section remaining.
The C320 in the foreground is the cheaper one but it's behaving itself. The fancy one can just watch the 'spares car' get the nice things
Black cars are hard work to clean, but it looks good with the new badge against polished paint. Shame I can do one panel a time before pain wins.
The one that behaves gets the rewards...
Year fail...

The 1953 Soviet propaganda illustration depicting "War" served at a restaurant table while other social needs are ignored by Yuliy Ganf.
Published in 1953 for Krokodil magazine, it satirizes Western, particularly American, prioritization of militarism over social welfare.
