DEFINATLEY DO NOT TOUCH MERCEDES OF TEESIDE WITH A BARGE POLE I'm having a running battle with them over a late 06 slk 1,900 miles gone on for 18 months now, they and Milton Keynes couldn't give a to*s even with trading SIDS involved..they cant even supply the parts to repair it.
Every one at MERCEDES is on the sick, on holiday ,in conference (for 3 wks at a time)
And there telephones DO NOT MAKE OUT GOING CALLS

I don't work with the black stuff unfortunately......!
I work in the water industry...!
And even more unfortunately i don't have my Tuscan or T350 anymore....!!! I had to use car for work of certain standards and my other half was driving the BMW albeit a 320i M Sport (Nice car but bloody slow...!) and because it fit purpose it made sense to use it. So it meant i couldn't afford to run both so the T350 had to go.......... And thats when she picked the SLK from HHC while i was talking to Tony...!!
I'm still planning on buying another TIV but not sure when unfortunately!!!

The SLK hasn't been serviced yet. It has about 800 miles before its due now i was just doing some homework by starting this topic.

Good luck with the continuing saga with the merc....!

Nev
