I have taken mine to Paul at MPH performance in Middleton for the last few years .He is in the process of moving to Castleton just down the road. Knows his stuff and doesnt do work that is not required. Prices very reasonable and you can normally wait around if the car has been booked in in...

Ive had mine for about 3 years now and I just love it. (172 SLK55). It is a bit pampered and doesn't see much wet weather but when it comes out for a blast it sounds fantastic under full chat...! I have no intention of selling it as I think its a beautiful car and the engine is both frugal if...

Guys, thought I would update the thread. I never bothered with Kwik Flit again after this issue, but I never changed the tyres either. Whilst on another car Forum I noticed someone else mentioned this type of issue and it was suggested that if the car was stood for any period of time (which mine...

Yep , got mine today as well..!

Yep I did read that bit AMGeed, thats the bit I don't like. Take my tyre never to be seen again and then told to "Do One" no refund..!

Thanks AMGeed, That's my opinion but when I phoned them they said I would have to buy a new one and they will send the "faulty "one away for Continental to inspect. I may or may not get my money refunded. Which is not acceptable. I will let the tyre guy look at it on Friday and take it from...

Not worth a w... anyway...! MB will wriggle out of anything they can IMO...!

If you want some fun and a feel good factor but the SLK55. Forget the tales of this and that. Just experience it. Its a great car. Enjoy

Looks like a real quality job. Excellent. Thanks for the pics and pricing.

If you own a garage then I would have no issue as a potential purchaser of your car in the fact you have serviced it at your garage. In fact I would expect it to be very well looked after if that was the case. I will not pay MB to touch my car.

Any pics available yet?

Sounds excellent. I would like to se the pics when available and also what sort of cost is involved here if you don't mind me asking? There doesn't seem much performance upgrades about for the 172 SLK 55 so very interested. Thanks
