Re: smarttop for e89
Didn't someone here have serious problems with one recently? Car had to go to bmw to be fixed, even when the module was removed?
Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?

Re: smarttop for e89
Hello
Yes ZED five ... a member had a big issue with one of these, had a alarm like general ECU failure some thing like that .. and the car was under warranty I believe, I was going to get one but this put us off

They're not cheap but if you move on you'll get most of your cash back.
They are a must have in my book

Re: smarttop for e89
I just bought one from PPCGB, they have money off at the moment. Fantastic service, was delivered next day by courier.
I have purchased from the States before but by the time you add postage, VAT, fees etc you may end up paying more than the UK suppliers price and then you may have issues with warranty or support so by the time you add the VAT you would be looking at around £304 which is £14 more than PPCGB.
It might be even more, last time I got stung with £30 fee by the courier for collecting the VAT on behalf of HMRC.

Re: smarttop for e89
As I suggested, buy from the UK !
The above goes to show what can happen to a bagain price.

Re: smarttop for e89
I think someone tried to do a group buy on these a few months ago and there was not enough interest.
You never know though people might be interested now.
