Car in for boot floor repair

[mr sagman]

Just off the phone after a long chat with the extremely helpful James from Reddish who has advised me that I would be advised to have some additional strengthening done as the resin is still a little bit unknown in terms of longevity.
When I was initially told by Bluebell that because the crack was tiny, a full floor replacement wasn't possible I was disappointed initially, then re-assured by the bodyshop manager that they were very confident of this product and they have had no problems with any cars treated with it blah blah blah, Its all very annoying that we 'the customer' have to go through all this stress because of BMW's design faults.

The problem is the temptation to get other little bodywork issues sorted at the same time is proving to be expensive lol... So far I've asked for the carbon roof to be re-lacquered as it had a couple of marks.. The front splitters are being re-lacquered(all at a very fair price surprisingly). Gonna get a price tomorrow for a front nose paint to get rid of the stone chips... It really is a slippery slope with these cars ain't it.

That's naughty!! If its cracked kick up a stink and get a new boot floor fitted. The resin will only prevent the crack spreading it will not stop it spreading So when your out of the goodwill period which will be soon you'll have to pay For it yourself! If its cracked its not fit for purpose! Tell rob to work on your side and I'm sure he'll get bmw uk to pass it

Is it at BlueBell Wilmslow.....or is it at Halliwell Jones Wilmslow ??

The Bluebell group has been sold off Very recently, Wilmslow is owned by Halliwell Jones and Crewe is owned by Knights.

There you go, you heard it here first.
