Hi there,
i'm looking for some advise on getting repairs to my scuffed alloys and a dent to the edge of my door. I'd like to get it repaired by a local Company nearest to London if possible. Failing that I can always to to the dealerships.

How are you trying? You can either upload them as attachments or you can link to photos already on another server.
If you choose to upload them, they can't be huge (I don't remember the size requirements) so you may need to shrink them a little...
As far as wheel repair, I don't know any specific shops in London but there are probably a bunch of alloy wheel repair shops there since they're pretty easy to find in the US. It might be smart to ask the dealer because they probably have a relationship with someone that they use. In the case of my dealership, they have someone who travels to their shop once a week or so to do the repairs. I like that concept because there's less risk with the little things like someone not jacking up the car properly, etc.

I'm not sure how things are in London, but I always just get my minor dents and dings and wheel scuffs repaired at the BMW body shop. It's more expensive than "Dent Doctor"; however, I just don't trust those guys messing with a $65,000.00 car.
