Depending on where you are in New York, I live in Jersey City and found
an awesome shop close to the Journal Square Path Station that has been
working on Mercedes since 1980.
It is a family run business.
I had been searching for somone to do work on my 1981 380sl.
4 other mechanics could not figure out what was wrong....
This shop knew what was the problem just by the sound of the engine and
exhaust.  They do mainly mercedes, with some BMWs.
They had all original parts in stock!
Very reasonable price.
G&T Auto Imports.
Ask for Simon.  Let him know I referred you, and he will go easy on the
bill.
