Melbourne mechanics?

Hello men and women of vic. I'm not from melbs and havnt had very good luck with mechanics lately. I've recently bought an e21 323i and had planned on using my mechanic in Ballarat cos he was as good as they get but a week after buying the new ride i received a letter from him explaining that it was time for him to turn over a new leaf.

So, I need someone in melbourne who knows their older bmw's. Someone who can get everything done quick and never miss anything, because that's what I'm used to! Any tips? I'm in prahran at the moment; so north, south, east is easiest for me.

Oh and since I just joined I'll be introducing myself a little later when I've got a bit more time to spare.

Dylan.

I have heard they are good. A mate in Melb uses them and he speaks highly about them.

Definitely give Southern BM, Moorabbin, 9555 4049, a try. They are great supporters of the BMWCCV motorsport events and are spoken highly of by club members.

Plenty of good places, plenty of bad stay away from Northern BM, worst service ever. i am getting great service on all my cars from BM Central in Brunswick at the moment.

I have been getting my car (94 318is with 230'000km) serviced at BM Autoworks in Oakleigh for a while now. John has been really helpfull and gives great attention to small details. His prices are also not bad either!
