Subframe.

KPNUTZ · 09-03-2013, 04:04 PM

I has an inspection on my new Cesil which showed a slight crack on the subframe/boot floor, I agreed to buy the car and sort this myself.

Having visited Bluebell BMW today they have booked it in to inspect and said they've had loads in recently, I asked about a courtesy car and was told they don't supply a car for warranty work! Is this standard practise?

You should be getting a courtesy car free of charge.

I've no issue with their work, they did a top job on a previous car but I will need a courtesy car.

Where abouts do you live Dave?
