Have only just been made aware of this and have no experience of their service etc, but might be of interest.

For Storage : www.phoenixcarstorage.co.uk

For specialist MB servicing : www.phoenixcarworks.co.uk

I will be investigating their car servicing as they are by many miles the nearest specialist MB servicing facility to me!

Update - visited them this morning, owner Paul Blake gave a a tour and history of his facilities, for years he's specialized in restoration of classic MB's but last year 2 large adjoining units came available so 1 is his secure vehicle storage facility (did not get into that!) and the other is kitted out with 3 (soon to be 4) vehicle lifts plus he has employed 2 young trainees, 2 trained mechanics and a well known (to me) MB trained mechanic - Darren, who I know well from his Arrow Fleet Maintenance days when he looked after Arrow Taxi's fleet of C and E class MB's. Having had the email of their T&C's (all simple and acceptable) I'm waiting for a call from him to book my S204 in for an A service and combination filter, and once "lay the SLK up for winter" comes she'll be up there as well.

Update No.2. Just collected the S204 C220Cdi after service by Darren, £226 including the combination filter, advisory about both front suspension arms and bushes needing replacement soon but not immediate so that can wait. She's due MoT by Jan 8th so will see what the MoT says! Haven't driven it yet (wife drove it home, she makes James May look a fast driver!!) but will tomorrow afternoon. Had a chat to Darren, nothing else to report.
