Can anyone recommend a good Indie garage near Gravesend Kent for my old man to have his 53 plate Z4 3.0 serviced and looked after like it was their own
I take mine to someone near Colchester, but I think that may be a bit far for you as he doesn't provide a courtesy car (will pick-up/drop-off at station though).
After all my troubles over the last 10 years with my local dealers, I was recommended this guy, and I've been going there ever since and now consider him a good friend too
He's started out as an e34 M5 specialist, but covers anything BMW really from e30s/e12s/e23s through to e46s/e39s/e38s., and used to work for Aston & Cosworth, has rebuilt both his Skyline and e34 M5 engines in the past and his Skyline is the only modified one I've seen that not only produces the numbers (not claiming 1000bhp or anything), but has the reliability and longevity that some others can only dream of (mainly due to him over-engineering any modifications, so that there's no weak point in the chain)
Unfortunately (for him) the Z4 is quite reliable, so he only sees it for interim oil services and annual alignment checks - but I combine that with a stop over in the area so we can have a curry.
