Cos there was some German language statement flagged up when the guy at Agnews attempted to order an exhaust for Der Van. Upon translatition it basically said..........."none left for these 30 veh.........source elsewhere or  fabricate your own"
Humph!
Is MB finally putting the boot in for the cheek of Automotive Techniques to be bringing in  Steyr Puch's for a few years?

Try Nadine Eggert on nadine@mercedes-g-shop.de, Mobil: +49 175 521 68 43. I have been there before and found that, they are reliable and well stocked. 

Hope everything will be sorted soon!

Thanks guys, got sorted, there were three silencer boxs available E stock Ex England. the mechanic, bodged or fabricated the bit of wriggley/curved pipe required.
I do have to say Mike at Agnews was very helpful.
However the showroom staff were a tad snooty when I turned up in clean but working cloths to collect the silencer, and blagged a coffee & had the termity to look at an ML?
The Cheek o me! (apparently)

They obviously haven't grown used to you :p I sometimes drop by in muddy boots or overalls, the number of times I've been there they think I have shares in my local stealership, so they always smile.
