Default SKREEM issue for UK owner

Hi, I’m based in Nottingham (UK) and have had eight years of happy motoring with my blue 2006 Crossfire Coupe. Last week I went to take it out for a spin and the engine turned over for a couple of seconds before stopping. This happened two more times and then there was nothing. There’s no life in the car apart from the cooler fan coming on. If I disconnect the battery and try again the same thing happens. At first, I thought it was an issue with the crank sensor, but after a bit more research it’s looking like the problem is that the key and security system are no longer communicating and I believe it’s called ‘SKREEM’. The car is inoperable and stuck on my drive. Does anyone know of a UK based business/person who offers the service to fit a new Ignition Immobilizer box to cure the problem? Or is even possible to get the Mercedes part? Seems a shame to have my Crossfire purely as an ornament for the drive! Any suggestions appreciated. Regards Richard ;-)
