Garage to do work on Z3?
Discussion
Hi all, am new here but hoping for some advice.
I have an ageing Z3 2.8 (1998) with 97,000 miles. It's been very well maintained from the word go, is all original and still looks great and drives beautifully. However as you might expect it's getting a bit long in the tooth now - a few rattles and squeaks here and there, a fair few stone chips and the beginnings of rust at the base of the front wheel arches. Still polishes up well but if you look closely you can see it's an old car.
Although it's probably only worth a few thousand tops I have to confess I love this car and am very reluctant to part with it. I've been considering some fairly extensive work to bring it back up to spec - renewing all the running gear, clutch, probably a new roof, all the little niggles and a respray.
Can anyone recommend a good garage to do a full diagnosis and then the work? I'm London based but happy to travel for the right place - it's been BMW serviced all its life but of late I've been less than impressed by BM's service so happy to go independent.
Many thanks for all suggestions!
