do you actually like driving at all or are cars to you just a manifestation of some sort of pathological mother complex ?

Although not South Lincs, I use Forrest Motors in Lincoln and they have been good so far. I even took the Mini there.

We've also tried contacting Benson Motors a couple of times but no response despite the recommendation here - any ideas?

Give Tim Spicer a ring at Duxford (just south of Cambridge) 01223 833392 - he did my 1.9 last year for an Insp. 2 service, new front discs & pads plus an MOT for much less than your quote!!!
Wasn't sure about putting his number on here but it's freely available via Google. Very good service & a free loan 5 series as well.
Zed now gone - replaced by 330 Ci convertible.

Benton's garage in Ely (near the train station) They specialise in BMW, never had the zed serviced there as haven't had it long enough but they looked after my 328 exceptionally well for the last 2 years.

Bensten?

They're usually very good on replying, are you sure you have the correct number? 01480 463000?
