Have not used them for the past year due to change of car, but prior to that had used them for several years for regular servicing on a mini. Would definitely recommend them, good work and reasonable rates.

Yes I've used them in the past while I owned my R53 Cooper S, a grate bunch of guys how are very knowledgeable. I remember them sorting out a fueling issue on my car very quickly and didn't charge the earth.

If you want a second option then PMW in Chelmsford have a good reputation and are used by quite a
few people I know.

Can't do frown - I'm in charge of my sons football team this week as the manager is away.

On the upside, I was in charge last week too and we won 4-0 biggrin

I have to say I wasn't overly impressed with PMW in Chelmsford, I called in for some advice with a view to using them for servicing, and was told by the Tec that he had not seen a 130 before and suggested I go to a main agent!

As I was leaving I noticed a freshly serviced 130 sitting there waiting for the owner to pick it up!!!

John, let me know if you fancy giving them another chance to meet your requirements. A mate of mine knows the owner really well and I should be able to get you the name of one of the senior guys there to speak to if the owner is not around. I'm certain you met a junior tech who clearly didn't live up to the standard usually given by PMW.

Thanks Ian, I have to use BMW main stealers now as I have gone for their own warranty which is very reasonable but the down side is you have to use main agents.
Not due a service now for a couple of years so it will probably be sold by then.

Thanks anyway.
