Both myself and @GLK have used a similar outfit near Northampton. I used it to change the drag link on the steering on my 129. Much easier to do on a lift.

No longer own a Mercedes Benz
I used one in Bletchley (near Milton Keynes) a couple of years ago but I think they went bust. Replaced the turbo on an OM646 C220 CDi and also did my 5G ATF change there. Very friendly and helpful...I really should find another garage like this.

LK - do you have the name of the Northants one please?

Thanks guys. Do they give you some sort of induction to make sure you can use the lift safely etc?

At Weedon the guy takes it up and down and is always nearby if you need him.
As Yugguy said he's very helpful, even helping me separate a ball joint

Brill, think I'm going to give it a try with these control arms/wishbones. Also got a gearbox mount I'll try and do.
Cheers
