I know someone who bought a complete car *COUGH COUGH*

 

And they cost him ££££ more in the end as they cheated him and sent him wrong dash board and it got retrimmed (Long Story)

 

At the end of the day they are breaker,so if they have what you want then they are probaly as good as the rest

www.linwar.com and www.fabdirect.com seem to have more stock, and neither have a staff member photographs section that looks like the fbi's most wanted list

as Pete said, probably as good as any - they just don't look like the sort you want to haggle over a fiver with lol

if a place has got what you need sometimes it's better to bite the bullet and pay the man his money instead of waiting to pick up a cheaper one on ebay that might never come

i kept telling myself that when the man at sytner told me the price for two new 12 page supplementary alpina owners booklets - £38.08

Heard a story about M-Tek a while ago that when your car went to this garage they were able to get keys and fobs copied for your car as a number of vehicles went missing shortly after being there.

Coincedence perhaps but this was the word on the street.

They had a E30 M3 for ages trying to sell it. Too dear and with 528 wheels too and something just never looked right about it or the garage.

Oh I think the word alleged should be in there somewhere allegedly.

I've used m-tek before and i would say they are a little more co-operative than your average breakers yard.

I bought a full E30 m-tek kit for a good price and the guy said "its a piece o' piss to fit"... yes maybe so, providing you don't remove it with a combination of angle griders, crowbars and blunt screw drivers!!

You pay for what you get in my mind and they are very handy for bits and peices in emergency.

I want my beamer back to its former glory!!
