Default Dealerships......Inverness or Aberdeen ???

Hello all, picking the beast up on monday Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with either Aderdeen or Inverness BMW. Don't want it being touched by guys who are not fully up to speed with the CSL. Looking forward to the 600 mile journey back up to its new Highland home NOT looking forward to the fuel bill . Sticky

Have you thought about Grassicks in Perth, been going for about 5 years great service and mechanics are really good they spent time with customer who want to understand more about their cars

Shouldn't joke about that, I used to drive down from Elgin ( North Scotland ) to TVR Power in Coventry for all the work on the T350. They were the only ones I trusted completely with it. If Murketts are as good as everyone says i'd think about it

Enjoy the weekend everyone, i'll report back on what MPG I see on the way back up, although I doubt i'll be sitting at 70-80 for the entire journey

I will probably take mine to Murketts when the Insp I is due again in a few months - and i live at the end of Cornwall.

Have a good weekend too - it looks like it may be a 'CSL weekend' for most looking at the weather forecast

Enjoy your run back up the road

Hope you get a decent day for it.

think i was returning 27/28mpg coming back from Croft last year which i dont think is to bad, especially with the car loaded to the roof with a weekends worth of track stuff inc wheels, trolly jack etc etc.

No CSL for me this weekend, it's still on SORN for the winter plus im in the middle of building the engine for my Cosworth so busy busy.
