Last time I looked I think these were £500 a pair. I would have thought many Indie's use these rather than MB sprockets.

There is also a full kit here for £600

And there are cheaper ones too but what quality ?

For £1200 they should know what's making the noise!So an update
The local merc garage has been fixing the car, they are using parts not from merc,I will add source when I know for sure where they got them.
They quoted approx £1200
Today after they have fitted everything and reassembled the chain is making a noise. They think its the new cams and will be contacting the supplier on Monday.
You would think so! I am starting to get the feeling this is going to end badly, the garage blaming the parts the suppliers blaming the garage me seriously out of pocket and a broken carFor £1200 they should know what's making the noise!
£1200 is as serous as it should get. It's their repair and their problem, you should insist on having a 100% repair and a guarantee.You would think so!

Think the m271 engine will be avoided, I surely will bei have a C220 and was thinking of getting a more modern version of the car, W204, but petrol. after reading all these stories about how poor these petrol engines are, i'll keep my car a bit longer.
