Shocking!
To write off the car as well seems such a waste.
Have you enquired about Mercedes supplying and fitting a replacement engine?
That shouldn't happen in such a low mileage car.
If Mercedes won't play ball, how about removing the ancillaries on your car and fitting this?
Got to be better than writing it off.
