Sacco Era Specialist Workshop Services

The R129 Co is a specialist Mercedes-Benz workshop in Kent, supporting Sacco era cars from across the UK and Europe.
 
Our core expertise is the R129 SL, supported by detailed knowledge of the wider Bruno Sacco era range, including W124, W140, W201 and W126 models, plus selected 1990s and early 2000s modern classic Mercedes and AMG vehicles.
 
We focus on advanced diagnostics, complex repair work and long term preservation. These cars often require a deeper understanding of Mercedes-Benz systems from this period, particularly when faults are intermittent, layered or have already been through multiple rounds of parts replacement.
