I got the bills because it is my car, he admitted it was him that made the charge. I sent him every bill I got, now its been sent to a collection agency. I cannot renew my license plates that expire the end of this month until its paid. For awhile he gave me excuses, then it was flat out lies. Now he is ghosting me. He owns his shop, I live on social security month to month. He was my trusted mechanic for 16 years. He used to say I wasn't just a customer I was a friend, with friends like that I don't need enemies. I would have given him 0 stars but not an option.

It is a beautifully designed car, and mileage was 87,000 when purchased in December 2017. I love the style and the way it handles, but was not aware of the complicated ABC hydraulic suspension system, which seems the most common general complaint of other owners of the MB 500 SL. When my ABC light came on during a trip to VA Beach, I was able to drive it back to Hampton, however upon researching, I should probably been towed. I made it back safely, and when I added fluid to the suspension it simply came gushing back out under the car. I called around and a good friend, and fellow MB owner recommended Autobahn Auto, which is very nearby to where I live. I drove the car over, and was given great personal service and attention by Buddy who apparently manages the desk and shop. Upon checking it out, I needed a major hose replacement. Autobahn handled it for me expeditiously and got me back on the road in 2 days. They were fair, friendly and Buddy even provided pictures of the work that was done and the rodeo testing afterward. I could not be more pleased to report and recommend Autobahn Auto. They will be my "go to" mechanics for all future service and repairs.

I've worked on cars for over 40 years, and their service, from beginning to delivery, is first rate. Excellent quality as well as value for their good rates. I thought so much of the first job, I brought them our next project car as well. I highly recommend you look into what Richard Kelly and his crew can do.
