CARING FOR YOUR R129
Feeling left behind by the main dealer with no one to turn to?
The R129 SL remains a cult car with an ever-increasing following made up of all age groups. With this increasing following comes a surge in market values and a bigger gap between the exceptional and the good. But what makes an R129 exceptional? In our eyes, it isn’t just down to mileage or condition of the paint or leather. We believe the exceptional is evidenced by a well-documented routine of maintenance, which is why we created our CARE Servicing Investment Plan.
WHAT IS CARE?
CARE is a service plan that allows you to invest in the future of your vehicle, with guaranteed servicing carried out when you require. Our team will schedule your servicing, book transportation to and from SLSHOP (if required) and utilise the funds you’ve saved in your account over the prior months to carry out your annual service/maintenance. This means after one year, you could have £660.00 in your CARE investment account. These funds could be used to part fund any works or cover the full cost for a service, depending on how you’ve used your Mercedes over the previous 12 months.
WHY CONSIDER OUR CARE PLAN FOR YOUR 129?
As the world’s leading R129 specialist, we possess an intimate understanding of your R129, knowing exactly how to prevent any costly issues arising. We will work with you to ensure that your R129 is maintained according to your budget and planned usage. We recognise how vital it is that you obtain financial and spiritual return from your R129, and our CARE Investment plan gives you reassurance to use your SL in the knowledge that regardless of the mileage, your SL is mechanically spectacular.
WHAT WILL A CARE PLAN DO YOU FOR YOUR CAR?
A CARE plan will enable you to book your R129 for its annual maintenance at a time that suits you and your plans. This means your SL will get the attention it deserves, with our craftsmen using their unrivalled expertise to check your vehicle for common issues, while also carrying out your desired maintenance in line with your CARE account balance.
Should you or family decide to sell your car later in life, the record of service history will only bolster its value, allowing you to command a higher sale price.
CARE gives you confidence to drive and simultaneously allows you to command a higher value for your SL.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Start investing £55.00 towards your CARE account.
- Speak to our CARE team and let them schedule your first Service.
- We’ll arrange any transportation required.
- Once your car arrives, we’ll carry out any improvement works, utilising your CARE account balance to fund all or some of the service.*
- You benefit from discounted labour, parts and transportation and simply wait for your vehicle to be returned to you.
*This will depend on your CARE account balance.
