Hi to all in the Central Region from a Yorkshire member.

I desperately need some help to find a trustworthy garage or BMW independent service centre for my 75 year old father's E36 318iSE.  He's in Tamworth, but knows Brum pretty well. 

The garage he's been using seem to have been taking the p*** and recently peaked by dropping a Mini into their pit and writing it off (then arguing the toss with the poor unfortunate!).

Had a look in this forum and the closest I can find is BM Euroservice in Wolverhampton.  Can anyone recommend them or hopefully someone closer to Tamworth?

Thanks

Stu

I'm sure he'd travel for a reputable job John, especially one recommended by yourself.

Yeah I've used BM EuroService twice so far since owning my E30 from Sept 05. Business partners are Paul and Mark. Paul is great, very professional and very experienced. He's always at the front desk along with the secretary. Mark has worked on my E30 and has a great eye for detail, he's checked my car and pointed out lots of things to me. There are some other younger mechanics there but don't let that put you off.
Prices are reasonable, they even offer a loan car. Website is ****e. lol
