Help in Helsinki?

Post by camperco »

One of our customers is on the way into Helsinki with a Mercedes 280SL that's consuming a lot of water. Does anyone know of any classic car specialists in Helsinki?

He's taking part in the Imperial Rally, Check out the route!

We already know it needs a cylinder head swap and a replacement head is on the way out there. It would be nice to find a workshop to do it in instead of the hotel car park. DDK normally comes up trumps on this kind of request.

Asking my Finnish colleague for you. Maybe Googling in Finnish might find somewhere

I’ve asked around and this company seems to be suggested. They speak English too which is a help. I have no direct experience.

Regards
Mike
