Vintage & Classic Mercedes Benz Cars in India

Do we have excellent restorers in Mumbai or Pune?
Do you have any names? Do they have any websites we can go to and check them out? (I tried to look up Mogul, and could not find any reference.)
How do they charge? Per job or per Diem?
Thank you very much!

Mumbai has few very good restorers. Most do not have dedicated websites but you may choose to search for NICKI GARAGE, Lamington Road and one who would be more closer to you geographically is an excellent guy, Allan Almeida.
I don't know if they will like me mentioning them here but these are the ones I would trust with my big M.

Spotted this ponton Mercedes undergoing restoration at a petrol pump in Bandra.

Saw this in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad.

Covered in dust but seems to be a restoration in progress.

Caught this immaculate Ponton on the back of a flatbed. It looks like it is part of the Bosch collection. It had number plates bearing the Bosch name in the German numberplate font.

Bosch has a beautiful Ponton 220 SE. During the MICO Bosch days it has participated in various car rallies.

Here is a picture posted many moons back by Dominator, from one the KVCCC Rallies.

The green W124 seems to be a new addition to that parking lot. Last time I had seen, it was the golden W123 in place of the green W124. I seriously pray that these cars have not come for scrap - given their proximity to the Kurla-CST scrapyard.

Saw this very clean W210 E240 in Dadar, Mumbai.

Very nicely maintained apart from the partially missing emblem on the boot, but wrong thread I think

Are my eyes playing tricks? the front and rear plates have different registration marks?

Yeah! These logos are often stolen and break during the attempt. Might be a similar case here. Also, I could not find another apt thread for this, if it does exist, I would be glad if the mods could move the post there.

That is just an edit done to hide the plates. Blurring the plates makes it look boring, so tried something different

Saw this immaculate beauty in the club last week
