I have just bought a 2015 E350 in Blue with 24,000 on the dial. It's my first newish car in 15 years so happy with the mighty engine and very grateful for previous advice pre-purchase. It's been pretty well looked after apart from the dog smell in the back, the scratches to the rear bumper (dog related), 2 scuffed wheels and general issues with the paintwork. I don't want to respray the bumper and would prefer to polish out as much as I can and then apply a clear film protector on the top surface....can anyone recommend a film?
The previous owner had kindly bunged it through a rotary car wash which must have had Scotchbrite abrasive pads on the brushes as every panel was scratched in the topcoat. I've had it 'mopped' just to make sure it is recoverable and it is but would now prefer to have it properly polished, detailed and waxed..can anyone recommend a detailer in Kent?
I took my earlier E240 and our Beetle to Lepsons and they did a great job on the wheels but they may be overkill for the damage I have to these two wheels. There are some chunks cut out of the diamond rims and I think some metal needs to be replaced before a refurb so maybe Lepsons is the best but hoped there might be other recommendations.
It has three MB services and I have all the service history, electrical issues mainly, but I would be grateful for an opinion about carrying on with MB service and paying their monthly service plan.
Comments very gratefully received
