After 3 years when I had my fall out at SMG with a certain person there, I decided to go make a turn at SMG Cape Town with a small problem. Well I was welcomed by Ashraaf, and what a freindly guy and willing to help. I must say he restored the faith in me knowing that he is a person willing to listen and help where he can possible. Its good to know that there are still people like him that have a passion for the brand and proud in his work.

There's rumours of them closing down, which will likely happen. But they not closed down yet.

I heard these rumours from good sources . Apparently 1 or 2 more BMW dealers will be closed before year end.

Consider yourself among the lucky few....for me they are about the worst you get. Starts at the top with an arrogant, rude and unethical DP and just filters down...

I go to Auric Auto and I get the best the service service from everybody there from sales people to servicing, they are a very good dealer ship. I will not go any where else because they give me such great service.
