    Elms (AGAIN!)

    Threads are getting a little repetitive now, but credit where credit is due...

    • Insp 1 done, couple of very minor bits...chain tensioner seal under warranty, and broken Xenon level sensor link, not. Otherwise in rude health.
    • Recent Carbon bits bought from Mark (seat divide, SMG surround) fitted
    • New CSL door strips
    • Compression Test
    • Pax door handle de-stiffed
    • 320d GT MSport thingy as a loaner - 48 mpg with sport etc. all turned on and returned before I used all the fuel I put in ! Quarter full on pick up, £60 in to fill for a Cam>Shrops>LDN>Cam trip and still on half tank on drop off !

    Next is alloys refurb at Lepsons, spare steering wheel done at Royal, bumper respray (and prob bonnet, doors) and new flippers fitted. Then front end wrapped.

    Owned for 5 years and 27K miles next month.....where does the time go !

    Big up to Elms, the Gman and Emma for perfect customer service once more.. :beer:

    My front xenon leveller link is broken too (noticed when Intrax removed)

    Can you tell me BMW code for replacement from your invoice please?

        just a suggestion but I would get my wheels refurbed via Elms, or the company they use. Difference is like night and day.

          Actually, that's a good shout. Totally forgot that Billy had mentioned this.

          Good catch Sir :thumbs:

              If you need wheels refurbed I can get them done aswell my Fiancee's Brother used to work for Lepsons as their powdercoater and now works at a company in Orpington.

                  Make sure you give them top marks in the survey BMW send you afterwards. 'I have a dream' that one day all BMW main dealers would be as good as Elms (but sadly they are not, which is why I travel a hundred miles for an oil service despite a main dealer being 2 mins away from me...)

                  Our feedback counts.

                  Had some 19" Mirror M3 wheels (notoriously tricky to get to OEM ) done by Lepsons, finish was superb. I couriered them there for not much money, they also added rubber at the same time for a really good price.

                    would you recommend Elms to get the car re-sprayed?

                    I have been recommended others like KDS Keltec, Italcoachworks etc

                      Their usual body shop is Myltons/Bedfordia group in Bedford (who own Elms), they did my front bumper, looks excellent.
