Does anyone know of a decent garage for servicing in the Ipswich area? Until now I have taken the car to a BMW dealership and on the last two occassions it has come back with scratches. After the last service I had to take it back 3 times for various problems, and they charge a fortune.

Can anyone suggest a reliable independent garage with more reasonable rates, preferably a BMW specialist?

The car has just turned 5 years old, I plan to keep it for several more years so I figure by the time I sell it, a FSH from an independent BMW specialist would be just as good or maybe even better than FSH from BMW in terms of the resale value. Do you agree, or is it worth paying the BMW rates? I'm not sure I even have a BMW FSH now because it used to be a lease car and they were a bit slack about getting the service book stamped.

Thanks, Tim
