Hi Guys
Mark has finally taken the plunge and left Williams to set up shop. What this guy doesn't know about BMW's isn't worth knowing! I have got us 15% off all work as long as you quote the forum.

A fair bit .
I don't mind a little travel for the right people doing my car .
I have mot,d my cars at the same place for 8 years although it's a 60 mile round trip .
Good honest mot station

Marks worked for Williams bmw for over 20 years so what he doesn't know isn't worth knowing. Seen him rewire an x5 from scratch and it started and everything worked first time...!

Defo consider this after the experience I had locally. I did use a BMW specialist in Wigan for a power steering pump but someone put 60 miles on the car and pressure washed the roof leaving the tell tale marks. At least there was more fuel in it than when I left it but never again.
I was looking at getting M serviced by my mate in Conwy as he works at BMW but is about 160 mile round trip.
I am not far from Radcliffe so it would be nice to know what an Insp I would cost at 56K miles. I service the 330Ci myself but that is worth nothing compared to the M so service history is not really considered.

I put his number in my phone on Friday but didn't get chance to ring with being busy at work. I will organise getting the Zed to him next week as she needs sorting.

Going to get her tomorrow as I had to collect the 330 Ci from an exhaust place this afternoon. Mark seems very good from the chat I had with him and the car only needed an oil service as it had Insp II last time.evom3z4 wrote:Let us know how you get on..Havard wrote:I put his number in my phone on Friday but didn't get chance to ring with being busy at work.
