Southern E30 Experts.....

Mon Sep 26, 2005 10:25 pm

Can anybody help me?......

Is there anybody out there who can recommend any garages on the South Coast (Dorset / Hampshire area) that really know their E30's? and have had good work carried out there?

I've recently moved down this way, and am in need of somewhere decent to take my car for work that I can't carry out in the kerbside, and don't have the right tools for.........

Cheers,

Nick.

I'm in Bournemouth Nick and don't trust anyone to work on my car so I do it all myself. What is it you need doing, I might be able to do the work for you at a weekend. No job too small! I built Jimbob's 2.7 engine for him and fitted it :lol:

PM me if interested as I won't be back online until early tomorrow evening.

Justin is fantastic and will not rip you off. He has reasonable charges too and has looked after HartgeH27's, Bharat's and my dad's car.

He is a true mechanic!! Not just someone that fiddles around with other people's cars.

Justin at E-Techmotorsport (02392 478300) is the dogs danglies of an E30 expert. He will give you plenty of sound advice and knows his subject of E30s inside out.
He is the only guy who I would trust on my Hartge and fully recommend.

Please note I do have an interest in Etechmotorsport but my advice is backed by the other posts on this subject.

If you mention the Zone you may well get a 10% discount which I have arranged for Zoners.

I hope that wasn't a dig at me because I wouldn't call building and fitting stroker engines "fiddling about"

Oh I'm very sure I haven't! There have been many since recent events and I'm getting fed up with them.

E30 Adam,

Sounds good as I'm in Bournemouth too. I don't want to waste time typing out details on what exactly is wrong though. I suspect it might be a wheel bearing, or a problem with the front pads which I only changed about six months ago.

How do you want to go about meeting up?

Well mate if u went about things better u would not be getting these comments. Alot of people are not happy at the moment. And i cannot understand why no body is saying anything. I think u and jimbob need to listen to what people are saying.

Simon,

I think I know where you are coming from and I have had a long upset call from Lizzie. Off the record (and I think/hope you know I am a genuine and discreet guy) whats your observations/thoughts of the way things are at the moment ?

Either pm me or email me at iainham@bigfoot.com or call me at any reasonable time on 07810 650 395

Cheers dude !!

Drop me a PM Nick and I'll give you my details so you can pop round and I'll have a look for you.
