PRESS INFORMATION FROM BINZ UK LTD. New Binz Mercedes in Stanley Independent funeral directors, Derwentside Funeral Services in Stanley, County Durham, have taken delivery of two brand new Binz Mercedes E220CDi Limousines and a matching Binz Mercedes E270Cdi Hearse. David Forster managing director who founded the company said, "Today is a very proud day for me. These vehicles represent the very best in what we can offer as funeral directors and as our first brand new fleet we wanted to get it right. The fact that Binz is the only limousine builder that has full Mercedes-Benz engineering approval meant that they were the only choice for us. The hearse is stunning - a real head turner - and a major plus to the business. As they say, quality speaks for itself". As well as providing Derwentside with the peace of mind that comes with full EU Type Approval certification, Binz's privileged access to Mercedes-Benz components and technology, means that these vehicles are fully supported through any UK Mercedes dealership. This applies from the factory re-calibrated on-board dynamic handling electronics and variable ride-height air suspension, all the way through to air-conditioning systems. The same dealerships will also service any unique to Binz features - such as the hearse's rise and fall casket deck - by dealing with Binz UK's own specialist parts operation in Reading on the operator's behalf.
