I have the dreaded roof issue. My car has sat in my garage for, I dunno, a year or so. About time I got it fixed. I have made some tentative enquiries but no one in Norfolk fills me with confidence. Maybe I should have taken it to BMW near me but I had a bad experience there with a previous car so I'd rather not. Any suggestions where to take it. Can be out of county.
Who can fix my roof?

Is this a comedy input?raymond.harper said:
Barge poles spring to mind.
Having reworked an E85 roof motor relocation done there I'm afraid my inherent need to finish a job properly to a high standard was somewhat staggered by what I found, hidden where the average owner would never see it!!
I know this could trigger all sorts of comments, but this is MY opinion.

A "comedy input"? You are entitled to your opinion but the reviews of the company can be checked out here. https://www.facebook.com/ZedShedNW/reviews
I only spoke as I found.raymond.harper said:
I have only seen one example of his E85 roof work and as I said, I would not ever have let something leave me in that state!
Just boils down to the personal pride of an amateur versus someone trying to make a living and doing everything as fast as possible I suppose.
I said that as I don't want it to turn into a Zshed debate. I know there are some robust opinions about that place.enuff_zed said:If that's what you think!Stevo1987 said:Thread hijack alert. :thumbsdown:
To me it was someone suggesting you go somewhere and me wanting to point out you may want to tread carefully.
Hey ho, away you go!

I saw this..

And after an eye watering quote from BMW, and 3 so called specialists saying they "don't wish to take it on" I'm booked in next week. Nothing to lose and potentially a lot to save.

Yes, booked in for Wed. Had a long convo and Mike is confident he can repair it whilst I wait. Bmw have quoted me circa £2000 note I haven't told him that!

If Mike at the Zed Shed is fixing E89 roofs reliably without ripping people off, then he has got to be worth a shot IMO. IIRC the issues some had with him in the past were nothing to do with E89 roofs.
It seems it's him or Robbi realistically; and obviously Robbi is in Germany!
Steve...You could look to get the car trailed to them (or wherever) and back. There is a really good transport guy near Kings Lynn who is reliable and not too costly. NG Vehicle Logistics (Neil). Worth a few phone calls IMO.
