I have used Holmeward Service Bay just outside Halifax for 10 years with all my Mercs from my 1970 220 to the 500E I had. The mechanic David Illingworth is ex-merc and very thorough and reasonable rates - worth a call definately on 01422-345267.
Regards Toby

thats around £100 so £160 inc VAT at MB really isnt too bad.
