BMW indie - Chepstow
Discussion
Hello
My BMW has not reached the age where I am considering going to a indie. BWM FSH so far.
Was wondering if anyone had recommendations in Chepstow area?
Think main dealer prices are getting crazy
EDIT :
Just found Forza in Caldicot - seem to have good reviews

Stuart really knows his stuff. Its really difficult to talk to him though to pick brains and see what solution he would offer above just 'bookinmg it in' and learning how he would approach something. Its no better than a main dealer 'component changer' in that respect and that is a little something Indies usually have over a main dealer with us enthusiasts. I guess its because he gained a good rep in years where he was less busy... But fear not the quality and knowledge and better rates than stealers
Another +1 for Forza, they did some work on the vanos system on my old M5, when I priced the parts they changed with BMW it was more expensive than what I paid Forza to diagnose the fault and do the work. Speaking to Stu after it seems that he REALLY knows his stuff when it comes to BMW's.

I found quite the opposite, he spent nearly half an hour talking to me a year or so ago about a problem I had with my 330D, didn’t hesitate to book it in and drive up from Taunton to get him to sort out what my own local indie messed up. Now I’m back in a bmw i’ll be using him again.
