Electric supercharging is not new and not exclusive to Mercthink bigger - of their application across all their 4 cyclinder turbo cars , if you can remove lag and make more power earlier in rpm, you are getting characteristics more like a bigger capacity i6 ;
The one in Leicester? My brother used them, did a good jobnot sure but will have a look, not ties to them just that I've used them before and they have good reputation
I'd say that's a pretty good (and mostly fair) result. It's what, £2.5-3k normally?BMW UK have agreed to replace the exhaust with a brand new (revised version 2) one, which has been ordered from Germany. They won't however cover the labour to fit which I think is fair enough so for £200 or so I have a brand new M Performance Exhaust plus 2 year warranty.
Over £4k with the carbon tailpipes.I'd say that's a pretty good (and mostly fair) result. It's what, £2.5-3k normally?

Just get it done elsewhere if its noticeably cheaperMy 128ti is in for a service. They say the front breaks need doing and reckon it's 300 including vat and fitting, seems pretty steep to me.
66% of the BMW price, not a bad saving!Yeah going to check with my local garage.
I've only done just over 17k miles.
Edit
200 for BMW pads, 150 for after market at my local place.

This sounds very expensive...I've just done the front discs and pads on my F80 M3 and the pads were cheaper than that (total parts cost inc. delivery was <£600). FWIW my brakes did 88k miles before they needed doing, and I changed them when the wear indicators came on (BMW noted I should consider changing the pads for the last two services!).Yeah going to check with my local garage.
