" Specialists in their field and excellent service. Attention to detail, courteous & professional"

Munich Legends are true specialists and seem to know all there is to know about BMWs. I find them especially good for older cars. The technicians are excellent and many of the staff are long standing. The directors are conscientious and everyone is a BMW enthusiast.

"I would not use this garage at all. Unprofessional and unable to take responsibility to rectify their mistakes "

I have a rare BMW and I trusted Munich Legends to carry out a MOT and service on my car. Whilst my car was in their care, the bumper and wing was damaged. Whilst I do understand accidents happen, my car was returned to me on three occasions, the first time the car was returned the paintwork had more scratches then was originally delivered to them, which I was really surprised at, as I had read good things about Munich Legends. They took the car back to sort out the scratches, but when the car was returned a second time, there was grease and oil all over my beige interior, and the original work carried out on the wing and bumper had bubbled, which I was surprised no one at Munich Legends had seen this prior to delivering the car. When I discussed this with the driver, he said that it is only noticeable, because I knew it was there, which really shows lack of care and professionalism from them. On the third occasion, the car was delivered again and a replacement wing was fitted on my car, but there was a clear ridge between the wing and the bonnet and again, I was surprised this wasn’t picked up. When I spoke to them again, they just said it was a standard wing and there was nothing else they could do, which wasn’t the response I was looking for from a professional garage. I then took my BMW to a main dealers which fixed it with no fuss and were completely professional from start to finish. It has obviously cost me more money to use Munich Legends as I had to pay the main dealers as well to rectify the mistakes made by Munich Legends. I did contact Dan (the owner) to ask for compensation towards my invoice, but he clearly stated it wasn’t their responsibility, even though I had an email from Stuart (service) stating the car was damaged in their care. I have certainly learnt a lesson from using these guys, as the cars are the Munich Legends, as it certainly isn’t Dan and his team!

"I am confident of Munich Legends competence"

Soon as my car was out of BMW contracted fixed-price servicing I sought these guys out because BMW main dealer did the minimum, which in some bad years entailed me visit several times for servicing, plus another time for the MOT (because their MOT guy was on holiday !). Therefore I am happy to report Munich Legends did what I want, not what BMW contracts minimum stipulates - e.g. I wanted oil and filter changed but Munich Legends told me it's not needed. Nevermind, an engine likes clean oil and filter not oil that used up to 20,000 miles like BMW minimum says. Munich Legends told me air filter shouldn't need changing according to the servicing book. Nevermind I said that I could not trust BMW main dealer to have changed it when they ought because I still recognised the same damaged on the filter after the car had been in a number of services. While waiting at Munich Legends for 3 hours for the servicing, I also benefited from free technical discussion. If they continue to be as honest as they have been, they can service my BMW for its life as I intend to keep it for life. I had thought of buying a Jaguar XF estate as second car, but now I think if I buy a 5 series estate, I wouldn't have to look for a good Jaguar garage.
