Where to buy
« on: November 01, 2014, 21:36:20 »
Hi,


I have a project for Mercedes Pagoda and i need some parts but i do not know where to buy. I live in Turkey, Mercedes Parts are expensive at Turkey and sometimes we cannot find easily what we need so, i prefer to buy online. However i do not know any website for Mercedes classic car parts.

Any suggestion for me?


Kind Regards,
Murat

Hi.
My name is John and I would appreciate your opinion. I own a road worthy 280sl but it needs a full refurb, some body work and a respray. I live in London and a few people have mentioned to me that it would be worth my while sending my car to Turkey - as apparently their mechanic's do a lot of business
with Mercedes in Germany - and there much cheaper!   
What are your views on this?
Look forward to hearing from you.
John.

He John, it looks like Murat hasn't been here for some time. Did you try to send him a private message as well? You can search the membrship directory to find more members who live in Turkey. Good luck,

I hear that there's a thriving restoration business in Poland.
