There's been a thread on BMWLand about this - perhaps they've had a few phone calls and decided that demand has risen, so they can charge more! Still, ?126 inc. isn't too far from ?99 exc (?114) if you book online.

For anyone interested, I picked up two Dunlop SP01 225/17/50 Runflat tyres for Ł286, fitted, valved and balanced. If you need any, try Scot of Castle Tyre.. 01215238034.

Oh also had Brake service done, Rybrook quoted Ł120 ish, got local stealer to do it for Ł88 !!!

Now to see what I can get for the MOT.

- Microfilter is a filter (actually there are two) that percolates the air coming into a cabin.
- Particle filter is a filter that percolates some particles from the exhaust gases.
- Fuel filter is just a fuel filter.
