£960 for inspection II, MOT, break fluid and fit alternator.

£470 inc VAT for OEM BMW alternator

I’ve got a few little niggles but I think that will be a trip to the zed shed!

I’m taking mine in for Ins2 on Friday and leaving it at my friends garage to do next week whilst I’m away on holiday, it’ll be interesting to see what he charges me, I’m having my MOT done too

I thought DW was around £400 ins1 / £600 ins2 ? I know with a previous ZM there was a invoice from there for ins1 & that was a smidge under £400
add £40 for MOT + £40 for brake fluid then labour to fit that alternator looks expensive

Mine was £670 for an inspection 2 inc brake fluid , cdv mod , that was me supplying the oil though .

Inspection II £545 +vat
MOT £45
Shims £23.60 +vat
Fit alternator £150 +vat
Brake fluid £45 +vat

Soon adds up

That doesn't seem too bad. My Inspection 2 was around £1200 I think, and that included a refurb on one brake caliper.

Picking her up on Tuesday

Genuine BMW outdoor cover just arrived too, it’s still in original packaging with the part number label on

CTEK is my next priority

Just put mine in for an Inspection 2 today.

Dunno how the previous owner got it to pass MOT.

Good news is that none of the valves needed shimming!!

I keep telling everyone that these cars do not like being left sitting around
