Afternoon all
A quick thanks to those of you who’ve recommended checking MB main dealers for prices. Needed a new battery, my S211 has really been struggling to start in this cold weather. MB came in a £145 for a new MB badged Varta battery with 3 year warranty - best price I could find.
The only negative, having seen the size of the battery and had recent back surgery I asked for a price for one of their guys to fit it. It took 15 mins and taking all my details before I got a quote - £96.50. To undo 2 10mm bolts and swap one battery for another!
So score one to MB for the parts price but forget the service charge!
