Can anyone recommend a good independent Mercedes garage in the Norwich area please? This is for a CLK320 a friend of mine owns, and at 6 years old, Robinsons are getting very expensive. Thanks in advance.

Bit further south but you could try Derrick Wells in Needham Market.

Hello Hello Hello! Looks like I have a customerwink

Autotechnic Mercedes-Benz Specialist
Unit 9, Langley Road Trading Estate,
Chedgrave,
Norfolk
NR14 6HD

01508 522 995

It's owned and run by Simon and Mark. Both Mercedes trained technicians and both worked at Robinsons for a number of years - indeed my parents have personally known them since they worked there.
Top chaps, top service, HIGHLY recommended.
Since 2002, I've used them for both the W124 E-Classes I've owned. They have a decent labour cost. Tell them Darren Gee sent you biggrin

Yup I got her back last week, where it had to go straight back to the bodyshop for the rear bumper the be fitted.
It's now with Autotechnic so they can to the work they were originally going to do before all these delays rolleyes

Also it could even go back to Robinsons, as the gearbox still didn't feel right banghead

Darren,

Sorry to hear there are more delays mate. Stil, eventually it'll be back in better than new condition.

We will need to reschedule our booking too then....;)

Well I'm hoping it will be back from Autotechnic next week, but you'll definately be hearing from me very soon as to whether or not I can get it to you for the end of next week.
Even Cathrine was saying she's only been pencilling it in paperbaghehe

I really can't wait to get it back from you guys....after seeing what's it's like post-bodyshop, I'm confident she'll look as good as new after it's been machine polished and detailed thumbup

Also, did I seen a certain someone in a certain Ford pick up truck in Norwich last week? scratchchinwink
