Mate has left for SA for 6 months and left me his E39 528i SE Auto - MOT ran out today, should sail through as just had 4 x new tyres, full service, all new rear suspension, etc etc.

Just want to take it somewhere sensible where they won't 'find' problems to get the repair work.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

If you want complete piece of mind any council ran test centre. Although any dodgy back street traders are few and far between, try nationwide doing half price mot voucher via the autotrader website.

Try Dave Smith Motors in Ferndown Ind Estate, contact number 01202 871858, he's normally quite relaxed...

With it being a German car i can highly reccommend Kartechnic on the Nuffield Ind Est in Poole. They are awesome and really look after my RS6.

Yeah I'd go with that. Of if you're in Parkstone go to Flay's.

Hi, I take all my Beamers to St Christophers Garage at the bottom of Pokesdown Hill. I always tell them that any remedial work will be done at Mo-Tech opposite.

Never had a problem with them.

Good luck, Chris
