    Posted: 28-August-2009 at 15:34

Hi duncan/i have made quite a few savings thanks to my cc membership(and this is my first yr just coming to an end in sept/oct). Since the start of this yr i have had 10/15 per cent off parts and labour/1 oil servc;wiper motor failed just a few months out of wrnty,bmw paid half cost under good faith,then agreed to pay the other half of the parts cost(over 300qd part)seeing i was a cc member(i only paid 100qd labour/instead of 430!);discount also on a new rear spring and a window lifter/reg kit i bt off them and got fitted at my own garage. all in all,aprox 370pounds saved!!

 

The helpfull dealer is Harry Fairbairn,IRVINE(Currently owned by arnold clark).

PS:These repairs have been the only ones needed since i bt the car early 2007/the rear spring being an mot job!,so up til then it hadnt needed even a servc/just done when i bt it;so cheap motoring til now,haha

Seems Stratstone Taplow have changed both their policy (a lot of haggling to get a paltry 5%) and their staff who are rude and offhand.

I don't have any problems with Batemans in Grange over Sands, Cumbria. I get 10% when I show my membership card. Mind you, given the money I spend there it is the least they could do.

Harry Fairbairn Giffnock do - I said "I've been told that I should get 10% discount for being a BMWCC member" - they said no problem, have never asked to see my card and when I phone to order stuff and ask for them to put club discount on they put it through as trade discount.

Bearing this in mind I've never actually checked the numbers on the invoice to see that it is 10% and not 7.5% or something!

Stratstone in Chesterfield, Derbyshire really appreciate their relationship with the BMWCC and parts dept. (speak to Adrian) will help supply the parts if you are experiencing problems with your local dealer.

I bought two 3 series and 2 5 series all through them. david Barker was the man to deal with on parts, although I believe he is in another role as well.

 

Eastern in Edinburgh were disgusting the way they treated me.

Sopers are still fantastic to deal with although some of their parts guys are younger than my car!!!!

maybe they've changed their policy, when i had my e36 no discount was definately the order of the day

john clark in aberdeen has their own loyalty discount scheme in place that anyone can take advantage of

Yes by the means of a letter,but you need to get in and get a meeting with DP.It`s been all explained in the magazine on a number of occasions

 

What`s in it for Dealer?

Buisness

It seems to work for the ones that have been adopted

That could be down to no one going in to contact DP at the dealer (Adopt a dealer)

Not that the dealer discount would justify joining for only tho.

Haus Schmid in Elzach in Germany gave me 10% on parts which was nice of them.

and my local dealer in west london (HR Owen Holland Park) always give me 10% and are very helpful people to boot (even if they did manage to spray hot coolant all over the cars interior, not once but twice!! - they did pay to sort the damage btw).

The only dealer I had no luck whatsoever with was Eastern of Edinburgh.

 

All the other dealers I have used; Calterdon, Dunedin of Edinburgh and Soper of Lincoln have been very obliging.

Sytner - Loughton, Essex (Used to be Chigwell but have moved), do offer a discount and are always very helpful to me and dont request me to pay for parts until they have them in stock.
