Hi, been lurking for a while but could now use some advice - just bought a 2002 C230K EVO coupe, has light rust around the wheel arches & door trim - my local MB garage say they MIGHT repair it under warranty but are more likely to contribute. the condition is I must take it in for it's (due) B service with them. I took the car to an indy bodyshop today who quoted £400 to do all the work, I have a good local indy garage who can service the car for less than MB (& probably do a better job as have good experience of them) . . . SO - what do you think is the best move ? Pay out for the more expensive MB service & cross my fingers that they will at least contribute towards the cost of the rust repair (& thereby maintain a full SH), else just bite the bullet & go independent ? The car has done 83,000 miles . . Many thanks for any advice, cheers.
