Did the Pre merger AMG UK supplier Stratton (Water Lane, Wilmslow) have any links to Stratstone of Wilmslow (Water Lane, Wilmslow)?

Hi all, my first time posting so please be kind.

I own a Mercedes 500SL r129 91 H reg with an original Pre merger AMG body kit and 3pc AMG OZ Aero wheels.

Would anyone on here know if Stratton (Water Lane, Wilmslow) have any links to Stratstone of Wilmslow (Water Lane, Wilmslow)?

Reason being, I have found an invoice amongst the paperwork of my car dating from 1998 of £38k for ‘Accessories’, so I am trying to establish whether my car could be a Stratton build?

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure but I think that Ronny Stratton had his showroom before Stratstones opened up as the Aston Martin main dealership.
There's bound to someone in the know I guess.

Thank you LesXRN. I don’t really do forums or social media but I ought to join a pre merger AMG one.

Hi Vaud. Thanks for the message.
whilst doing some research about Strattons I found that out also.

I've just remembered that the Bentley main dealer in Knutsford is R Strattons.
