Thanks a million to you all for all the needed info. I had gone to the police station yesterday in manchester to register my report. They told me that I was 15 mins late and their forensic dept closes at 2pm on sundays :-(
Anyways, they told me that there wouldnt be much finger prints becoz I had opened the door and switched on the car. Which I did. Well for the time being I have stored it in my friends garage for secure parking.
I had a word with Mercedes Stockport and Mercedes Ashton, Spoke to an Assistant of Mr. Mike Brookes at Mercedes Ashton Old road and explained them my scenario of scene and also spoke to them about the 30year rust gaurantee or the Goodwill offer, If it would be revoked if I go to someone else and they say. Well your gaurantee doesnt exist because its only on cars up to 8 years old and we are terribly sorry but your car is in its 9th year. meaning it was a 2000 model. And listening to them im gutted that even after having every MB official service stamp and spending thousands, MB says that the rust gaurantee is only on cars up to 8 years of life.
Anyways This morning I received a call from a garage called Road and Race Restoration Limited in Bolton. They say that MORETHAN has instructed them to start work on my car and they are MB approved garage. I have put them on hold but personally I would go with MB direct for works. What do you guys think about the whole scene.
1- Mb says no Rust proff gaurantee, either you come to us or not.
2- Morethan says if you do work with our garage its lifetime warranty, plus we give you courtesy car, etc.
3- I have spoken to this ROAD AND RACE RESTORATION LTD company and they say we are mercedes approved body shop, we use original mercedes parts and you will have a lifetime warranty with all the work done. The body work will be patch to patch as what it is with MB and so would the color be.
What are your views on this, what should I do. Thanks guys
