Rear subframe on W203

[nobrakes]

May need to have the rear subframe on my W203 replaced.

Does that mean full suspension, diff, and exhaust out? Say 2days work?

It’s in A1 apart from that. Obviously would need to do a bit of ‘whilst you’re there’ refurbishment.

What year is the car? I had a subframe replaced on mine as it had basically rotted like an old mini's used to. The dealership was really helpful and went back to MB and we got an agreement that they would cover a large portion of the cost. Can't remember exactly but it was a good chunk because it shouldn't have got into that state. Cost wise it was a few grand in total.

I don’t have a quote, just planning. Better the devil you know in the old car market.

Full MBSH so might be sympathetic(whilst over the barrel)!
