Hi folks, the head gasket is on it's way out on my R129 SL320, the problem I'm having is finding someone who wants to take it on..
All MB specialists in Suffolk give the message they don't want to take it on.
Nobody seems to want to take on big jobs any longer.
I've asked everywhere other than getting desperate enough to end up at the mercy of a cowboy which I won't be doing, so until I get the right person who actually wants to take it on my gorgeous car will be an ornament.

Any ideas?
I'm based in Suffolk UK

Alex Crowe? Welwyn Mercs? Or further afield perhaps Ian @star motors might be interested?

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately Alex Crowe won't work on R129's as they're too old.
I'll try the others.
