Not suprised you may have been ripped off mate,ive had so called respected zoners offer me parts that are cheaper to buy from official bmw dealers.While iv,e found most people genuineley helpful,there will always be the odd one driven by greed.Hope you get it sorted.

you need help mate.
im not sure who your aiming this at.
im not sure it ive dealt with you or p/m"d you about parts. but you need to remember most people dont have bmw price lists infront of them, nearly all that help out will give you the part for a good price.
nine times out of ten you will get the part cheaper from here. there is the odd case that the part is cheaper from the dealer but they may not know that, they are trying to help you.
so stop assuming the worst in people. as you will be not be helped by anyone.

In what way do i need help .
Dont know you from adam,so you can assume it wasnt aimed at you
unless of course your feling guilty over something.If you had bothered to read what i said you would have seen that i said most people on here are genuine.So im not actually assuming the worst of people i was actually praising most people,but if you think everybody here is out to help each other ,dream on.

Calm calm and calmer.
JonB is a very respected member of this forum and his reputation is of the highest.
I am sorry you have had a bad experience but lets take the sting out of this thread now.
Seems to have been a little misunderstanding here but no probs, lets get back on track.
We dont take pops at each other on here normally so lets keep things nice and cool.

Ian, not having a pop at anyone mate, was just pointing out that not everyone is Mother Teresa.Got my car from someone who was actually a Zoner and if i had been a bit more clued up or if i had discovered this site earlier icould had saved myself a lot of grief and money.Like i said most people here have been more than helpful and willing to help and hopefully i might be able to help someone myself.

Thats the spirit dude !!!
We all try and help each other out and it normally works.
Occasionally we get a bad apple and I myself have been hit by a shyster.
Agreed not everyone is Mother Teresa but if JonB had a sex change he would qualify for being Mother Teresa.
Anyway - we are back on track now.
Good to have you on board !!
See you at Gaydon hopefully ??
