Hi everyone I'm afraid it's true I am leaving at the end of May to go and work for a BMW specialist in Huntingdon ( Bartlett Automotive ) . Gives me the opportunity to do a bit more that I can't do working for a main dealer . I no we have software to remove top speed limiter from the csl . Basically everything main dealer except warranty . I hope some of you will follow me but understand that now no longer at a dealer if you don't . I will post more details in the future . Thanks guys , csl still my favourite cars 😊

You will be hearing from me soon as I need some routine work done.

All the best for the future.

What loan cars do they provide, M3, M5 etc.

Wish you well

Good luck in your new venture, was a pleasure meeting you in Munich.

Good luck with your new career move Gareth, even if they dont say - bet they will regret you going. Not many techs around with your customer care and attention to detail. Those of us with a warrenty will be particularly sad to see you go. Go forth and prosper my friend.
