 Bad Blue roof news
Wife's mini convertible has just been in to have the roof mechanism recall "fix". They actually did it whilst it was in getting a new tyre and didn't say they were doing it so she had to wait 2.5 hours - not happy at all.
Anyway she asked them to look at the roof wear. The car was one of the very first delivered and I have been waiting until a proved fix is in place before kicking up a storm. However the garage have just said that BMW state:
1. The roof will only be replaced if there is visible holes, fraying or about to fray.
2. With a blue roof any silvering or flattening is considered acceptable and will not warrant a roof replacement.
I have booked the car in on January 11 for inspection by the BMW engineer. Funny thing is there is an identical mini at work, exactly the same age and colour and it does not show any roof wear at all !!
Firework time methinks !! |
