Good evening all, just a bit of and update - picked up the car today and all seems to be 👍 good. Its been 7 months, alot of stress, and almost small claims court - but we seem to be there, the garage ended up giving the car to a BMW specialist and I picked it up this morning- on the journey up there this morning I really wondered what the outcome was going to be.

They ended up replacing the hydraulic strut and they carried out a leak test

I actually had a bit of a smile on my face this afternoon as I drove the car with the roof down and didn't really care about the cold weather. 8)

Hopefully many happy miles ahead..

Great news Shane, I'm pleased you got there in the end. It's taken 7 months, so hopefully now you can finally enjoy the car you (thought) you had bought. :thumbsup:
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Glad you’ve now got it sorted, it’s sounds like it’s been a very stressful few months but at least you can now enjoy driving it, hopefully the weather will stay dry and you can enjoy more miles having the roof down. :thumbsup: :driving:
