Good Central/West London workshop

Sun Jan 11, 2015 10:29 pm

Hi all,
I just bought my new 320i Auto! Can someone recommend a good workshop/mechanic I can use for servicing/repairs? I really want someone to check it over before I start driving it.
Cheers

+1 you'll be lucky to get hold of him, no matter how much he winds me up he is still my number 1 choice.

thanks for the reply guys. Whats the name of his workshop?

is it not worth using a main bmw dealer out of interest?

Oh and if you ever need an MOT i know a chap near Ravenscourt Park.

Brook green but I don't think a few streets will make that much of a difference ;)

I used to work at EMI in Brook Green small world, its a 2 door so not as bad as a 4 door, maybe pop down to the Surrey meet next week.

Post some photos up, Pony is a member and has a Sport and is from Chiswick.

This is mine if you have seen it around W12

or my daily

Oh yes I know that building

I'll put some pics up as soon as it becomes officially mine! I've asked for it to get an mot and the engine wasn't firing properly when I went to see it :0

Is that an Elise? I had one once. Took it up to Bedford and ragged the absolute crap out of it! It's amazing how sideways you can get them and still recover!! Lovely e30, I'll keep an eye out for it!!
