Hi All, Just over a month a ago, I had a problem with my boot lock which needed a part replacing. I bought the replacement part and gave the car to a local mechanic who worked from home, Sati in Southall, West London. He had previously worked for P and S Motors in Park Royal, having closed down...

Hi all, Having just purchased a speced up CLK 430 Cabriloet Avantgarde in Black Metallic on a 'Y' plate and a first time MB owner and wanting to prevent any unexpected mechanical/electrical bills I've eagerly read the numerous posts on here regarding the various merits between Warranty...

Am I right in thinking that the guy behind alloywheelsdirect is a member here?! If so, would it be OK to mail/PM some questions I have on a couple of wheels on the site? Ta!!

Driving up the road the car goes into "Limp Mode" and the engine management light comes on. I turn around and drive the half mile to my home - engine has no power etc. Get indoors and call my local MB garage - they advise me to call Mobilio. I do so and a Service Technician is here - plugs...

Just about to get my S211 covered on a warranty (3 year factory warranty just expired). I've nailed it down to either warrantywise.co.uk or warrantydirect.co.uk Prices very similar (£600 ish) and the spec of the warranty appears close, although with Warranty Direct you use one of their...

I had a theft attempt of my car last month. The car went to MB direct in manchester and they said they changed the door, used the old door card and all the works. I have since gone to them 5 times since 5th march and still have the same problem. When it rains, I find water dripping from the tiny...

One last question tonight!! Does anyone know if Warranty Direct are any good? My 3 year warranty expired this month! Ugh!!!

I recently had a break inn - attempted theft of my S cLass and being a loyal MB Direct customer thought would get it repaired from MB direct manchester. I sent in the car and they gave a quotation of £2900 for the following ---> I have great pleasure in supplying this estimate to repair your...

Hi, I appriciate this was discussed at length in the donza thread, but my father bought a car from an MB dealer, it is 11 months old and the odometer says it has done ~14k miles. He brought it round this morning to let me have a look and as I read the service pack there is a service sheet...

So I got a very jolly, hand written, postcard a few weeks ago from MB Direct Birmingham asking me how I was getting on with my car and, maybe, now I've had it 3 years, I might be thinking about changing it. It concluded that they would call me a in few days for a chat. Did they call? Of...

As we host our own Exchange server, and BES Express server, we have a choice. We've been using Blackberry for about 2 years now, one year each on O2 and Vodafone. Both charge about £24.00 per handset per month for BES (as opposed to the more common BIS) access. But I could use MS direct...

Folks, I got my renewal through yesterday for £920 from Norwich Union for the 300 E-24! I'm only insuring for 3000 miler pa, both of us have spotless licenses and this particular policy has 3 years NCD. Apparently it is because its a high powered car (which I know) and therefore Group 17...

I have read through a fair few threads on here that refer or relate to this "dealer" network. Is it fair to say their stock is a little hit & miss, or can it be relied upon? Should I buy with confidence or source my next MB through a 'proper' dealer?

Any one else received this? A complimentary service from M-B Direct that, in the event of you being involved in an accident that leaves you off the road through no fault of your own. Quoting from the letter;- "If an accident leaves you off the road through no fault of your own the law...

Quite a few threads touch on MB Warranty, Service and Service Plus contract and the occasional mention of 'other' policies. As Warranty Direct seem to be the largest player and seem to offer the best package outside of MB, has anyone got experience of them? ie. Do they honour claims, few...
