I’ve collected my car today after it’s been 12 days at the workshop and I am so happy with it!

Work done:-

Brake calipers rebuilt and resprayed with black polymer.

New brake pads all round, new disks on the front.

Alloys refurbished and painted metallic silver with new BMW decals and M3 badges and new valve caps fitted. Caps fitted over the rusty wheel nuts.

Short radio aerial.

Rear trailing arm bushes replaced.

Since I had the car, (one year), I have had some excellent help and I want to give those companies a name check;

All repairs and maintenance has been by Bartletts Automotive in Huntingdon, Cambs.

Damian at Bartletts is someone you can completely trust to give you honest advice and he is also an M3 specialist. He coordinated the dismantling and despatch of my calipers and alloys and then put the car back together and MOT’d it for me, while I went off to Scotland for a holiday!

Bigg Red did the calipers for me. Excellent service, great price, beautiful job. And they turned them round quicker than the usual time it takes, because I asked them if they could fit in with the schedule I had at Bartletts. Speak to John, helpful and bullshit free service.

The paintwork was repaired after I suffered stone chip damage to four panels when I drove over a newly resurfaced road. The work was done a few months ago now, but I wanted to give credit to Mark at Get Smart in St Neots, Cambs because not only did they do a perfect job of it, but they corrected one or two things on the car that weren’t part of the original quote, which took them quite a lot of time, but they didn’t charge me for them.
