Hi Laura, welcome to the forum

Hi Laura, welcome. You've got your convertible in time to enjoy the summer, though Lockdown is taking the edge off it just now. There are quite a few Midlands folk on the forum, so someone will be able to recommend a good Indy for Mercedes maintenance without main dealer prices.

Only had it a month its 2005 would love ideas on what to do with it as i don t know much about cars just cant wait ro get it on an open road lol coming from dudley in the west mids like the power

 

[Blobcat]

Put fuel in it and drive it
Check the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) (Assuming it’s an auto) has been changed
Get the cam chain checked to see it hasn’t stretched

It is a manual its had a complete overhaul and all is good
