dkha01 · 02-19-2011, 06:36 PM

I'm about to purchase a 328 coupe from a friend, where can i go in the GTA to get the car inspected other than bmw dealerships? Also, any idea how much it would cost?

thanks for the help

RMP is good, and if you are in Richmond Hill there is a new shop with 2 BMW master techs that just opened a few weeks ago:

Advanced Knowledge Automotive at 346 Newkirk Road, Richmond Hill
905-883-4BMW

It's run by Trevor Hayes and Jerrold Potter who both recently worked at BMW dealerships.

They have all the tools and knowledge to fix anything on your cars.

FYI, BMW dealership charges $200 for inspection.
Use the number when you compare to other shop's price.

I would see Rocco personally @ RMP. He's got lots of experience with bimmers and offers great prices.

I think they would take a Saturday appointment if you arrange it ahead of time as they may not be in every Saturday otherwise.
