That's a rather sceptical view to take, BMW main dealers wouldn't stoop to such underhand tactics surely.Gazza wrote:Prepare for the long list of things to do

Guess the quote for work
I guess £200 - £250 + VAT.
If it needs a service and an MOT, I revise my guess to £600 + VAT

Re: an offer you can't refuse
just back from my winter check I'm going to do all the work my self in my man shed , main bottom nsf ball joint exessive play ,anti freeze only down to -7 degrees, advisories, front and rear brake disks lipped and corroded, wiper blades smearing, front suspension perished and weak, neads replacing, only 1 green light remaing to next service, gives me some thing to do on these winter nights, on the plus side she had a very good wash and clean inside and out and I got a nice BMW brolly all for £24.32

Re: an offer you can't refuse
So, how much are you going to save by doing those jobs yourself? They surely slipped in a 'little' quote, didn't they? Btw, the service indicator lights can be all brought back on with a simple length of wire. Search for the thread on the forum.
You got a wash, brolly, and a list of jobs to keep you busy for the winter, for a reasonable price. Wins all round.
Keep us informed with the jobs. And pics would be a bonus.
Boosh.

I guess that means that it must have been free. And as my £250 was the lowest bid - I winpeter2b wrote:Nothing was mentioned, after I told the service chap I had a twin arm car lift in my man shed so I was going to do it my self once I got my mgb gt off it that I'm referbing
