Rydale are supposed to be good buddy. Im a cardiff boy originally. HOWEVER, if you can make the trip to Swansea, I cant rate the guys down at Trainer BMW enough!!!! They bend over backwards to sort yuou out with parts and servicing and the girls who sell the cars aint half bad either!

Try B & R Garages in Cardiff. Independant BMW specialists. Always go there never had any problems and cheaper than main dealers. Chris the owner is an ex -BMW mechanic. There in Tremorfa

Thanks guys - I use Rydale for servicing my daily driver, and they are OK. I need an independent specialist to do some work on my E30 (oil service is due, and air con needs recharge), and also to change the supercharger drive belt on my E46, which Rydale didn't want to touch.
String - thanks for the tip - I will give B&R Garages a try.

Always found Trainers in Swansea to be about the best dealer.
For an independent specialist, B & R are excellent for most jobs.
