560 SEC. 18,000mls
Recently took my 500SEC to Charles at the SEC Shop in Kemsing in Kent. I rate this guy and recommend him over everyone else I have been to.

He is a nightmare to find - up a track in a tiny village in Kent but accessible easily from M25 and well worth the trip. I have been to a number of indies trying to get niggles sorted on my car and this is the ONLY guy who really knew his stuff and was honest and trustworthy.

Technically he is very good - massively experienced across the whole Merc range, realistically priced, with a personal thing for SECs. He solved in an hour a problem which had defeated three other 'specialists' (my throttle valve switch had gone - and no, I didnt know what that was either).

I'll have to agree wholeheartedly with you. Chas is a unique guy and a very knowledgable MB Specialist. I have recommended many of my Kent & South East London clients to him over the past 2 years. You can always call him on 01732 763956 to discuss SEC business or for any other model of Mercedes. He is a genuine enthusiast who cares for his customers, similar to Bill Schrader in Billericay.

Both Bill and Chaz are capable, in my opinion and experience. However, neither are speedy and given the "sticks" nature of their respective premises your car will require a thorough cleaning when returned..
 
Holy Thread resurrection.:crazy:

Anyway my more recent experience is that the two times i have tried to contact them they do not answer the phone or respond to a message.
