Exactly what I did. I drove it from Sydney to Melbourne and didn't get one stone chip

Which dealer do you guys down in Melbourne use? I used BMW South Yarra for the service interval and I wasn't too impressed with their service, and now I have used BMW Melbourne at Southbank for a wheel repair and the service is pretty much the same. Anyone that you guys recommend?

Which one was it? The one on Williams Road? I took it in for the service and explicitly instructed them not to wash the car. So what did they do? They washed the car which pissed me off immensely.

Thanks, I'll ask for him next time. It's so close to my place so it would be easier to go there.

BMW Brighton has been excellent, noting I did not purchase my car from them.

The dealership where I did, well I avoid now... :-/

Performance Parts

Anyone looked into getting perf parts put on?

Been checking some online sites , eg

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-M-Perfor...-/162084740228

https://www.getbmwparts.com/partloca...subcat1=138716

different prices floating around.. Southern BM quotes something quite $$, any thoughts from Melbourne locals?

Also looking to upgrade my stereo system if anyone has gone that route?

Cheers, LP
