I always use these....

http://www.c3bmw.co.uk/default.asp

All genuine parts too.

Some people will probably say use BMW, but these guys (C3) get all the parts from BMW direct in Germany.

I recently gave a list of items I wanted for my M3 to my dealers, total price came back as Ԛ£713, and for exactly the same items from C3 came to just short of Ԛ£600.

The items included wishbones, offset bushes, thermostat, water pump, tensioner, oil coolant, ignition leads and a few other things that I can't remember!
