Mercedes - Classic & Modern
There’s a feeling you get when you drive a Mercedes—a sensation of grace, solidity, and quiet confidence that modern cars rarely replicate. Whether it’s the dignified glide of a W126 S-Class, the unmistakable mechanical honesty of a W123 diesel, or the surgically precise performance of a modern AMG, Mercedes-Benz vehicles represent generations of uncompromising engineering. They deserve service from a shop that understands their legacy and respects the complexity of their design.
At Edelweiss Autowerks, we specialize in the care of both classic and contemporary Mercedes-Benz models. From the stately lines of vintage sedans to the advanced systems of late-model SUVs, our experience spans decades of Mercedes engineering. We don’t just work on these vehicles—we live and breathe them.
