Default Inspection II

Hi guys
I've been quoted £1200 for the inspection II, does that sound about right ?
Thanks

I took mine from Guernsey to Elms so that Gareth could do the inspection 2 that was due.
I think elms is £799 inc vat.
They check & adjust the valve clearances, change the CSL air filter (most dealers dont) change the diff fluid & also the gearbox fluid (again, most dont change the gearbox fluid).

Gareth also changed the CPV & both rear springs under warranty - i didn't even know there was a problem- & the car was ready to collect bang on time.

Emma & Gareth really do put other main dealers to shame, in an ideal world, BMW would clone them & put one of each in every dealership, but until then I'll be making the trip across the channel & up to Elms.

I was told it used to be £1200 but BMW have some valuerange incentive BS going on - anyhow, its £989 inc VAT.

That's some dedication Well done Sir.
You must be the record holder for the furthers and most varied (ferry included) distance travelled to get your Cecil serviced @ Elms.
Speaks volume of how good the team @ Elms Camborne are

I think that they have folk travel from europe too.

Everyone said that it would be worth the trip & they were bang on. Its a great feeling to drive away knowing that everything that should have been checked/adjusted/changed, has been.

Total thumbs up from me.
