too true Pete!
Other local MB dealer is quoting £466 inc VAT to replace both ball joints, which is £200 cheaper!( £662.49inc vat) It is labour intensive apparently?
If the ball joints are similar to the 211 set up then the dealer will have a special tool to press the joint in and out with the lower arm in situ, would have thought it would be no more than a hour a side.
I changed my 211 joints the hard way by removing hub and pressing them in and out and that took me 2 1/2 hours
