Auto repair shop

Woke up this AM to find a pool of I believe to be antifreeze on my garage floor and under my car.

At least I hope it's that. Anyway since my car is a Mercedes 500 SL that is now 13 years old I am concerned where to take it.

The closest Mercedes dealer is in Orlando, so I wish not to go there.
So I am looking for a repair shop that has experience/knowledge of Mercedes Autos.

I sure don't want to have someone without experience make it worse as the car has only 38K and is in pristine condition.

I would sure hate to drive all they way to Orlando and find they need it overnight. Back in NJ, they would regardless of age give me a loaner because of my buying history.

With all the people coming to TV for retirement you would think MB would have a dealer close by.

His place is immaculate and and he can do minor repairs for the Mercedes. Real nice guy who we found to be honest and ethical. There were a couple of SL500's there for service when I brought mine in. This was a couple of years ago. Sorry, can't recall his name.

No longer have the Mercedes; replaced it with a Chrysler Sebring convertible; love it.

Yes, you would think they would have a local Mercedes dealer near TV, however, I notice that Caddy's seem to be very popular here in TV and there's a local dealer on Rte 441 towards Leesburg.
