Final update for this thread:
Fitted a new ignition coil and so far, no further occurance of the problem. I may have damaged the transmission trying to go from neutral to drive whilst revving the engine but time will tell.
Thanks to all who responded - this really is a great forum and a definite benefit to owning a Mercedes.
Cheers!
