Replacement engine got delivered today and I have ordered a number of new parts from Mercedes (£500 worth!!!) to carry out the job. Looking like it will be the weekend after Easter weekend when the job will be started - anyone up for a challenge? I have a feeling it's going to be a utter bitch of a job...............come and join in the swearing and tears......
