Default Tasmanian Dealers

Altered,

I'm going to Tasmania on business in few weeks, other than Neil Buckbys and Performance Auto are there any other places I can take my Sprinter if I have any problems?

Cheers

Neil in launceston will or should solve your problems if any come your way on Sprinters They are not allowed to fail Performance will be hit and miss the best staff have long gone. Steve the main in office sales rep is the only guy I'd trust. he always does his best and goes the golden mile to help.
take at look at the main yard for Sprinters, nothing has been there for months look over to VW Jackson on the opposite side of the street and I know where the commercials sales went to, There is a new premise being built in Argyle street maybe things will improve , but there have been issues and that has cost sales.
If you want, we could had have a cup off coffee and chat, if you'd like.

PS Coopers Warwick Street does my maintenance if and when required, but he is not geared up for the NCV.

Thanks Altered,

Why do you take your Sprinter to a none Benz dealer surely they wouldnt know as much as the official dealer? Do they have access to a DRB? I believe that there maybe another service dealer on the north shore somewhere as well.

oh yeh, shouldn't that picture of the Australia Post Sprinter wheel be in the Australia Post section?

In fairness to your question The Old tin never required a service until after warranty expired I used a Euro schedule, Not Australian. My Mechanic Is a Benz mechanic and is cheaper, Not that is a problem! I only want the best.
Performance is OK I said I have trust 100% don't take it the wrong way, but time frames for service, drop it off and come back at the end of the day... is not on for a commercial vehicle I can get a loner, from other outlets not from Benz. BUT I NEVER REQUIRED IT AS TO 100% PERCENT RELIABILITY. {THE PERFECT SPRINTER}
Eastern shore does not service Sprinters., they don't have a trained-certified Mercedes-Sprinter Mechanic.They service sedans.
Joke it would be silly to post a not so Su-Si on the Aus post section.the wheel don't fit.

Mobil the photos I take are real. not borrowed... Local shots.Sprinters are wall to wall down in Hobart.
