Bloody Steeler...

I lost a centre cap for one of my alpinas a few weeks back, and got in touch with BMW Westerley in Exeter, explained I needed a new one, they said OK but usually better to drop in, that way they can look at the wheels about be 100% I'm getting the right part.

Drove down this morning, cap in hand (excuse the pun) and whilst polite the buggers never left the office to look at my wheels.

I could have read the part number of the back of one of the other ones over the sodding phone

60 mile round trip..........I did get me one of those wind up toy M3 car for Ԛ£1.......... at least wasn't a complete waste of time.

Parts are ordered but I wish they'd sort it out. Gonna be a month they rekon to make a lock that matches my existing key so bit of a wait.

Martin,im always going up to Westerlys BMW in Exeter,so if i can help(maybe pick the cap up and post to ypu)then give me a shout!

Unless they are posting it?

PS;do you still want me to bring the lights and spray to Haynes?

Hey Tony,

Cheers for the offer dude, don't mind the drive if it is for a good reason just wasn't too impressed when I could have done that on the phone.

Defo bring the lights and paint, been keen to sort that out for a while,

randomdave should be bringing along a from grille for me too which is going to go black (plus I get the Sebring box fitted tomorrow!) so it should look the nuts shortly before I ding it (oh god I hope I'm not tempting fate!)

i took my kids with me to the parts dept and they gave my kids a toy m3 that you bought but for free i thought they were free gifts did you get a bill for it or were you left leaving with your trousers around your ankles and a sharp pain somewhere ...and i only spent 3 quid to get my 2 toys
