Stratstone Harrogate was great for sales.
Eastern BMW great for service....the other Edinburgh dealer is horrendous.

I ended up buying my 740d from Harrogate BMW who were impeccable.
I could not have had a more different experience. They supplied my 320d coupe 4 years ago and I genuinely have never experienced worst service. I was lied to, ripped off (and then lied to when I caught them out), lied to some more and then when I got the car 4/5 months late (after they ordered the wrong spec twice) they had put a G instead of a H on the registration plates.

I now use York and they are superb.

Bought an m3 from Cooper Sunderland and were awful throughout the deal and after sales service. Including damaging a rear alloy, putting the wrong grade oil in the boot, in the running in service they didn't change the oil in the manual gearbox as they said it was sealed - it took 2 phone calls and me to find a bmw work instruction online for them to realise and bring it back in.
They also gave my old zed an inspection 2 instead of inspection 1 - I don't mind though as it was free on the service pack

Bmw sytner Leicester have always been excellent for both sales and servicing.

I have good experience of Vines Guildford over 4 cars - always been helpful, knowledgeable and courteous.

I am currently dealing with Cooper Reading who have been very good offering me 100% money back on a car I bought which has had repeated problems - but their central finance dept in Sunderland seem pants at actually refunding the money !! I get the impression the sales staff are very frustrated at the delays ... as I am ! One week so far and waiting to refund £26K. When I last traded a car in they took 3 weeks to pay the money for the trade in to my account.

As I say though sales staff very polite and helpful ... but tied by their accounts being centralised.

Not bmw franchise but there is a rather large vehicle planet in Kent that I wouldn't spend my hard earned at. Useless salesmen and pushy receptionists.

Rybrook in Warwick are excellent in my experience. As are Rybrook in Worcester. I've also bought from Coopers in Reading and the sales gig was very accommodating.
