Yeah, this is the shop that did the head and valve work on the 380SE, after the chain slipped several links and very bad things happened...anyway, the work they did was great, priced fairly, and the old W126 runs very well, and doesn't leak oil through the valve guides & stems any more, and doesn't blow a fog of oil smoke going down a hill, which was kinda embarrassing

They did great work on our Benz at a fair price, and are under attack from a bunch of people who have no appreciation of vehicles whatsoever and take umbrage at seeing a few old Mercedeses parked on the street out in front of the shop. Seriously, what the hell? I like seeing old Benzes...

I wished I lived in Georgetown too, so I'd have more of a voice in the matter. I think I may write a letter in defense of the shop anyway.
