Fleming and Cuthbert Funeral Directors set a UK first with Coleman Milne’s All New Facelift Mercedes Fleet

Proudly independent, Fleming and Cuthbert Funeral Directors have a long history of exceptional professionalism and commitment to local communities in the County Antrim area.

The business has gone from strength to strength due to the staff’s unique local knowledge and understanding of family traditions that allows them to offer an unrivalled personal service to surpass the family’s expectations.

They take a sensitive and compassionate approach to ensure that families are guided through the process and offer a full range of services and support from their beautifully appointed facilities in Ballyclare.

This uncompromising attention to detail extends to their fleet which is replaced every 3 years as part of their commitment to excellence. Coleman Milne is thrilled that Fleming and Cuthbert Funeral Directors returned to upgrade their existing E213 Mercedes range with the all-new facelifted fleet.

The new model hearse and limousine have undergone a comprehensive update and features an improved dynamic design, a responsive touch control steering wheel and enhanced interior comfort. The new E-Class has the latest generation of Mercedes-Benz driving assistance systems providing cooperative support to drivers and is equipped with the latest generation of the MBUX multimedia system.

The Coleman Milne hearse conversion features a flat full-length deck, ample space for two coffins and a wreath rail whilst the 6-door limousine represents the ultimate in space and comfort.

Alan Fleming added:

“I personally had the pleasure of visiting Coleman Milne and driving these vehicles back to County Antrim and the in-built technology and smooth drive left a lasting impression. This fleet oozes class and the classic design has been very well received. We’ve always received an outstanding level of service from Coleman Milne and look forward to renewing with them in the future.”
