Mark Newman

Director, Workshop Manager and Mercedes-Benz Specialist

What Mark doesn’t know about Mercedes-Benz really isn’t worth knowing. With a solid background as a Master Technician at County Mercedes-Benz of Cheltenham, Mark is able to offer a thorough, quality service to customers at competitive rates. Although specialising in Mercedes-Benz, Mark is a fantastic mechanic, offering a great service to owners of all vehicle makes and models.

Mark began his career as an apprentice at Bristol Street Motors in Cheltenham when he was 16 years old. He completed a three-year apprenticeship and gained a Ford Technician Accreditation. In 2002, he was awarded REMIT Apprentice of the Year UK. Mark moved to Mercedes-Benz of Cheltenham and, during his time there, became a Systems Technician. The company then relocated to Staverton in Cheltenham where Mark achieved Diagnostic-Level Technician status.

In 2008, Mark was recruited by County Mercedes-Benz of Cheltenham as their Master Technician until the company was wound down in 2009. Mark took this opportunity, along with Mike Cassidy, to establish his own business in the Cheltenham area. Together they set up Phoenix Mechanical Engineers and the business has gone from strength to strength since opening.
