Re: Your fleet running reports

Quite a few threads on it & challenges getting the car into neutral before dragging onto loader and needing a BMW mechanic to come out..

Re: Your fleet running reports

Absolute cnt. I would confront, tell them to have a hard look in the mirror and take ownership of his wrong dong.

If they refuse, hammer frozen sausages into their front lawn and exhaust.

Re: Your fleet running reports

I was told to do similar for my 330 but I believe that was approved used, may be different for new.

Not good either way, how many miles :cry:

My N53 loved a litre of oil every 1k miles.. I suspected CCV but dealer was having none of it.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Stickers off. They virtually fell off once I started, and the adhesive all cleaned off no problem. There’s a slight shadow though, more visible IRL than in the pic. I’ll have to live with it. Overall appearance with / without ? I’ve compared before & after photos and I really don’t have any str...

Very nice, I'd say they were happy with results, made carpet look good for photos to use for future jobs 😀

Re: MX5 test drive

Hmm, MX-5, GR-86 or A110? Neither of the latter will depreciate (if you can get a GR). Only the Alpine is quicker than the MX-5. But neither of the latter give you the open top. I think it comes down to whether you want the roof down part of it. That white 100th Anniversary edition does look good. ...

Generally they are arrogant, Parisian's especially. That said I've worked with some lovely people so they are not all tarred with the same brush, just most. :D

Re: Your fleet running reports

Genuinely liked the 86 I drove circa 5 years ago, went for the Focus ST instead, mainly for practicality reasons.

Felt punchy enough, still want one.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Finally picking the 928 up from the paintshop on Thursday. The bill is..... expensive. To be fair, there's a ton of work been done (new sills, loads of welding, new windscreen and lots of expensive window and door trims - 246 hours of labour in total) but it's still a fuck load of money. Pics pleas...

Re: Your fleet running reports

Picked up the Superb on Thursday, drove it home. Android play does not appear to work too well with Samsung phones but bluetooth is grand so not worrying about it right now. Took my wife away for a night on Lindisfarne to just unwind after the last fortnight or so and got rear-ended on the way home...
