Anybody used Lockes, Rushden

Looking for some feedback from users of this indie MB specialist

Big place, rough round the edges on the outside, and looks like a classic MB graveyard - loads of rusty ones waiting to die!

All experiences gratefully received

Albert is a close firend of mine and he has forgoten more than most merc garages know, the place is scruffy but he has a huge stock pile of parts.

the key to Albert is be polite!! if you come across as rude or arogant he will just say f**k off trust me i have seen it first hand.

but their qaulity of work is very very good dont let looks put you off
