Few days ago went through massive pothole, scratched alloys left side back and front with gash on front tyre. Took it to m8ni dealer to be looked at, wouldn’t let me come in servicing bay which was like a mile a way, had stranger driving my car. After 30 mins car comes back the plastic seal on wheel arch is scuffed and bit of bottom bumper. Said to the guy you hit my car, his exact words were there a massive door at front with automatic closing door and service bays have loads of room around.

Hello and welcome 
Your post may encourage both you and others to take pics when they drop their cars off for service or repairs as before and after pics will speak louder than a thousand words.
My dealer (not a BMW) when my car goes in for service etc takes pics all around the car to record any existing damage so there can be no comebacks from smarties trying to have existing dings fixed by them @ no cost.
Please let us know how you get on with the dealer.

I'm sure you'll fit in just fine and look forward to Talking Cars with you. Tell us all about your project and your plans for it.
Sorry to hear your problems, that is so annoying. Common things are jack handles falling against the side of the car, or things falling against them whilst they are being worked on.
Sorry I've not been around much, I've been fighting off a DDOS attack on this site. Hopefully performance is back up to where it was, or perhaps a little better.
