Afternoon all,
my B service is due on my C350 CDI. The car is a 60 plate with 18,000 miles on the clock and it's done approx 5,000 in the year since it's been last serviced. I called Mercedes and they want to charge me £450 plus VAT.
My question is do you think that's reasonable because it shocked me having never owned a Mercedes before!
A local official Smart dealer has offered to do it with Mercedes parts for around £250 which to me is a no brainer but I'm worried that I should take it to Mercedes for a genuine service.
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Paul
