Merc C63

I've used Premier thus far as it's still under warranty. I've heard other peoples horror stories, but I've only had good experiences to be honest!

Unfortunately mine is a '12 US import, which despite servicing it since it was brand new, Premier would rather not touch with a barge pole for any remedial work. It's times like this when I wished I lived in DXB, given that all the competent spanner-men seem to be based there.

I never had any problems with Premier motors, had a few bits done under warrenty with no questions.

Re the German servicing I know there are a number of Merc & BMW specialists in Dubai, I'm hoping to find good service in AD also.

Shirt, I do like the M3 - the problem I find is the lack of driving roads here. I get frustrated driving the Evora for the same reason, the Clio satisfies driving thrills on track leaving me the opertunity for the C63 to waft around in make large 11 and go sideways when I feel like being silly.

Never come back to the UK then. I've been back 3 years in the crowded Southeast and this place has sucked the joy out of driving and cars in general. I live not far from the McLaren factory and every time I see their cars on a test run, I just think what's the point.

It's more fun being a petrolhead in Dubai.

Let me know when you find a decent specialist! I know JZM has opened a gaff here in AD, which is most intriguing (or it would be if I owned a Porsche ), but otherwise most of the decent guys are in Doobs I think.

To be fair, Premier did pull out their finger and sorted the car finally at no extra cost to me, but the whole experience was rather horrific.

Oh and if it's driving roads you're after, then you need to head up to Ras Al-Khaimah I'd love to head up there with a fellow petrolhead (i.e. not my ohmygodslowdownwe'regoingtodie wife ), so feel free to drop me a line.
