MB Boerne thumbs up over MBSA
I second the kudos for MBB - I got tired of the piss poor attitude and know-nothing parts people at MBSA when trying to get parts for older MBs. If it isn't near new they don't care.
The customer service up north is night and day - I've had Ron White in parts poring over diagrams with me for an hour trying to find the right bushing or hose fitting for my coupe - once recommending me to NAPA for a 4" fuel line that would have been $42 special order once we found it.
I have only had them do service work once and they were reasonable as stealers go - parts were about 15% CHEAPER than MBSA too.
Plus I like to go in an touch the new cars and get free coffee
