Does anyone know of a car carage that is reliable, honest and does not try to charge you double as soon as they see a Mercedes drive into the garage. The car is nearly 10 years old but the hydraulics need fixing once and for all instead of breaking down every 3 months. We have tried the guy in Rashidya recommended on this site so we would rather use someone else......needs to be relatively inexpensive but who will fix the problem permanently not temporarily!!

Can anyone recommend any other garages in Al Quoz area, the ones mentioned below cannot repair hydraulic systems on Mercedes. Would prefer to go to a garage in Al Quoz rather than Al Rashidya as the car needs to be towed.

My husband uses Elite Auto in Al Ramool. They are a bit more but definitley guarantee their work. He also suggested JAS Auto in Al Quoz, not sure if it is the men mentioned below but he said they also do work on German cars and have had good things written about them As far as the age of Mercedes. It is considered a Classic car so if in good repair it can stay on the road past 10 years. Our is a 1997.

You need to get a quote and weigh up the costs as after 10 years old i did'nt think you could keep the car on the road anyway here.

Try Splash. Joseph is the guy who runs it. Very reasonable priced, does a good job and is honest. I once overpaid by 500 aed by accident. He called me the next day to let me know and to pick it up :) Also, when my son was only 6 weeks old, my car battery died in our garage. I couldnt drive, but had to get it fixed as we were having guests come who would be able to drive. He knew I was a new mom, so he sent two of his guys to jumpstart it and take it to the garage, no extra charge and sent a huge bouqet of flowers (to congratulate me on my new baby). very sweet guys there. They are near the airport...right behined that huge emirates building at the traffic lights after you pass the airport on your left.
